  • Right, you're not a troll, you just act exactly like one. You sow suspicion and conflict in the queer community and refuse to let your child use their chosen pronouns because you're such a huge ally.

  • You know, drag realised something a while ago.

    Any transphobic troll, who thinks drag is one of their own, would want to "expose" drag. They would want to erode the trans community's trust in trans people. They'd want the public to believe that neopronoun users are trolls. They'd think drag wants it too. They'd engage in kayfabe - a fake fight, a manufactured drama, to make the public distrust trans people.

    So drag believes you're being quite honest when you say you think drag is a troll. And you want to "help" drag, you want to finish the "con". You don't want the community to accept people like drag and every other queer identity. You want to start a fight and convince the community to turn against ourselves.

    This is a fake fight. You think you're on drag's side.

  • If it's true that you avoid people you don't like, then perhaps drag was wrong to think you didn't like drag. Drag has in the past advised you to block drag, and it seems you've decided not to. Drag is flattered. Perhaps you've decided to respect the "they" part of your child's she/they pronouns. If so, you're very welcome for the push. Drag has always believed that hearing the experiences of trans people makes others more likely to respect differences in gender presentation.

  • As drag said, the technology is great. Drag believes in the mission of the Fediverse. It's just that a lot of it is infested with power mods and transphobes. If we could get rid of that sort of person, this space would be much better, wouldn't you agree?

  • Yeah, being banned because a mod didn't like you was the worst thing on Reddit. Especially if they modded multiple subs and banned you from a subreddit you never even came close to breaking the rules on. Some Reddit mods were just assholes.

  • Drag very often gets called a troll on Lemmy for using different pronouns than most people.

    A troll is someone who tries to upset other people. Why would using different pronouns upset others?

    Drag will tell you why: because a lot of people have already made up their mind to misgender drag because they don't respect different pronouns. But in their hearts they do know right from wrong. So they feel guilty. And that's the bad feeling. They think drag is intentionally trying to make them do the wrong thing and feel guilty.

    It's ridiculous.

  • South Korean stuff bothers me. They haven't become disillusioned capitalism yet

    What did you think of the episode of Squid game where everyone escapes the evil death games, and then realises that they actually like the evil death games better than normal capitalism?
