By all means, go ahead. I won't cancel you ☺️

I mean, that's nothing I would tell someone to go do; I think it's in poor taste, and not constructive, but at times, yes, it can be pretty funny. I do find it concerning when people go too far and start bullying the trans peeps, cuz that's not right and they're already not in the best place mentally to be taking harsh shots like that. I'd prefer reasoned debate on trans issues.

That said, I'm all for free speech. Use it.

not me I just like making fun of trans cause I'm the tranny king. we can make fun of them right?

@Dave420
Or I won't won't like you! * sticks out tongue *

In all seriousness if that's a joke, that's pretty poor taste considering we're talking about actual violence here.

I was hoping this conversation wouldn't go here but I guess it has 🤷🏾‍♂️ cuz neither of this changes anything at all regarding at all, Kaniini's original premise is still invalid.

Mermaid's "affirm only or you're a transphobe" approach is leading to serious physical and mental harm to autistic and GNC kids that aren't trans, because a bunch of confused and damaged young adults are what you end up with when you send kids to gender clinics staffed by workers that are afraid to question kids too closely for fear of being labelled a transphobe. The very people that should be looking out for the kids can't because of pressure from groups like Mermaid.

If you're a GNC kid, it's groups like Mermaids and people like Kaniini that are actually lobbying to harm your rights.

@kaniini @realcaseyrollins @feld Also, name a single radical feminist who was violent against a trans person. I can name a lot of the opposite happening.

See:

- Footage of actual violence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_d3ozhSE-U (note: the uploader is Miranda Yardley, a gender-critical transsexual)

- Threats and glorification of violence: https://terfisaslur.com/

As far as I know there's been no case of a so-called "TERF" actually committing an act of violence against a trans person. AFAIK every known murder of a trans person has been perpetrated by a man, and most likely a homophobic man who knows *nothing* about radical feminism.

The idea that women's thoughts can make men be violent against trans people is a sexist idea.

@kaniini
While this point is fair (assuming you're right and for the sake of discussion from your POV) I'm sure he'd be doing this even if Glinner was out of the picture.

Remember: this project isn't just for TERFs, it's for everybody.

That doesn't really impact the code of at all. It's just open source code. Who does it oppress in any real, practical sense?
