I know BlueSky is on to something because all the worst people you know are raging against it

+ The "argument" behind "trans men should do a bathroom protest on their own" is basically "but look how normal they look!! they just look like normal men!!" which is a terrible fucking argument to make because it just upholds "passing privilege"? Everything about this is so badly thought out.

I hate that "trans men should bathroom protest but only the trans men" post so much and I hate everyone who has partaken in it without realising they're objectifying trans men by volunteering our bodies to protest to "highlight the absurdity" without even considering our safety.
Fuck all of you lol.

the part of me who wants to fight for queer solidarity vs the part of me constantly confronted by the fact most of you don't take trans men seriously and have no self awareness about it

for bsky to be an echo chamber, leftists would actually have to listen to each other, which in practice

Trans men aren't your human shields actually.

Serious question about the echo chamber: What *is* there to talk about with people who don’t believe in liberal democracy, honoring treaties, or state capacity beyond the ability to make libs sad and explode the occasional Iranian? From a foundational perspective, what do I have to work with here?

on that note, remember not to directly engage with bad faith posters. just block and if they break TOS, report them too. by responding to them you just widen their platform on here.

When someone calls themselves "an old school gay" with the definition being "I am incoherently transphobic" what it actually means is "none of the other gays liked me"

I think it speaks volumes that right wingers criticize bluesky for being “liberal” and “left wing”, when it’s really just that hate speech isn’t allowed.

I could not sit silent while an elected official who spreads hate & lies that are getting trans people killed pretends to care about the future of the Internet. So I spoke up during Rep Nancy Mace's speech at the Project Liberty Summit & I would do it again www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2024-11...
