i would strongly prefer “none/use name” as a default, so people who choose “none” aren’t singled out. Im confused as to why this change is being shit on as “not important” (not necessarily by you, but mostly in yesterdays thread)… like okay… we are all here just sharing memes… but when trans people need this tiny scrap, it’s too much, it’s horoscopes and witchcraft, it’s the site losing it’s edge and collapsing into permanent liberalism. it just sucks.
It’s very weird and depressing to see people complain about the addition of such a basic site feature…because…something something… those damn radical witchcraft transes!!
Really sucks to be reminded how much even in “leftism”, people just fucking hate trans people, or don’t care to analyze how it costs $0.00 to just… ignore the new feature.
This move is not dumb, what the hell, it’s literally just default “none” pronouns, you dont even have to do anything. No one is claiming that this will singlehandedly destroy transphobia. I am a living trans person. I know there is real, more important shit out there. But the fact that you take the time to complain about an overall positive feature is so gross.
I’m sorry the memes aren’t as good as they used to be, please don’t use that as an excuse to shit on trans people and/or stuff you perceive as related to us, wtf. Grow the fuck up.
If you have a problem with a specific mod, talk about that.
