fuck spinster

@tuxcrafting what even is it

@nik @tuxcrafting TERF instance, Extremist Feminists (the kind people love to make fun of), but as a bonus they also hate trans people

@Meeper @nik @tuxcrafting

- Out of 8,000+ users I've witnessed about 2 who genuinely hate trans people. There are a number of trans users on the site (transsexuals, mostly) who want more freedom to have the full conversation about gender.

- The discussion happening on Spinster right now is about porn being linked to sex trafficking, which is a horrible reason to hate it.

@alex @Meeper @nik >only 2
mate basically every user there that i had an interaction with hates trans people

@tuxcrafting @alex @Meeper @nik Yeah that’s not my experience with it. So many posts I saw were talking about “men invading womens spaces”. Nah, its a pretty terrible place.

However, I’m pleased that Alex runs the site (because its funny that a man runs the feminist site) and also that it contains them in a nice little box.

@shebang @Meeper @alex @nik it's like FSE, keeps crazies in a nice little blockable place so they don't metastase everywhere

> I've witnessed about 2 who genuinely hate trans people.

Never been a huge fan of #Spinster as a whole but I've found some nice users from there more recently. A big problem I'd run into would be the user I try to engage with is sexist and hates men; as soon as I replied to their messages, they'd accuse me of "mansplaining" and block me lol...far more people on that instance hate men than hate trans people

But again, that's not everyone, just my initial experience. My experience with the users is a bit better now.

@realcaseyrollins @tuxcrafting @shebang @Meeper @alex @nik they hate trans people because they consider them men.

Trans women ARE men. But nobody hates trans people as much as their supporters tell them they do 🤷🏼‍♀️

Wanting protection for women’s rights isn’t hating trans identified people 🙄

I'm sure some do, but it's greatly exaggerated as far as its prevalence.

Nah their supporters literally say “everyone wants you dead” the whole movement relies on hyperbole and over exaggerating death rates. It’s that low.

Transperbole @mewmew @Meeper @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @nik @shebang

@Ladyfat @Meeper @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @nik @shebang I don't care what some random people on Twitter think, I care about your toxic ideology. Other people's responses to it aren't relevant here. If your only defense is "look at how crazy some people who disagree with me are", you're not making a good argument.

Sweetie I’m not on twitter .

Why would “women are adult human females” be ‘toxic ideology’ to anybody other than science deniers? @mewmew @Meeper @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @nik @shebang
