reddit being manipulated by information campaigns!?

“go to heaven for the climate, hell for the company”

I’m holding up well in spite of everything. I lost one of my friends this week. She had moved into what I thought was going to be a safe situation several states away and something clearly went wrong. She was a really smart and inspiring person.

I also just took another friend to the airport so she could permanently relocate to Europe, and two of my other friends are leaving soon too.

It’s been a rough week but I’m not planning on leaving, mostly working on organizing the trans people who stay.

I never stopped doing organizing work since Trump 1, during the Biden regime a lot of people went back to brunch, it was harder to find volunteers. Now they’re all back and ready to be mad at the government and do work.

I hadn’t seen this one:

‘the party should embrace patriarchy, jingoism and reactionary values’

• centrist democrat strategy

not surprising that’s why all the online followers of these people act like such assholes and treat anyone on the left like an enemy. great coalition.

I’m leftist, but

classic lol

.world is about as anticommunist as you can expect, if that’s not enough for you maybe you could relocate to one of the Nazi servers

have high criticism of the “gender spectrum” philosophy for trying to turn exact science into fuzziness.

I will direct anyone thinking this to the gender accelerationist manifesto. Gender has never been an exact science and a strict binary has historically been imposed to create more reliable subjects for capitalism.

I’m also a trans woman, I don’t think you should look for anything specific that went wrong. There was always going to be an out-group to blame for all of societies woes. I’ve been saying since 10/7 that if we’re willing to just accept what’s happening there (in Palestine) then it’s just a matter of time until normalization of dehumanizing people like that blows back in our faces over here.

The last few years have been revelatory. I lost a chunk of my personal friend group after 10/7, it pushed me to instead more actively connect with other trans people in my locality in person. I’ve circulated memes to the effect prior to the election and because of that experience I wasn’t surprised to see liberals jumping right to blaming trans people for their failures after this election.

Mutual aid and solidarity across impacted groups is going to be important in the years ahead. All we can do is be prepared as best we can and look to our allies and whatever community we can build.

It’s some bullshit, update

!news@hexbear.net and its megathread (changes weekly) has discussion with generally communist/anarchist perspective, defederated from .world though.

I’ve stuck with lemmy.ml because I like being able to access the trans comms on both hexbear and blahaj, which are defederated from each other.

I’m inclined to agree, they don’t want people starting to consider social murder as a crime worth seeking justice for, because the entire government is complicit in a vast network of social murder. An enormous yearly sacrifice all in the name of preserving ‘markets’ for housing, food, transportation, and healthcare.

Except for the folks at blahaj. They can suck a dick

🤔

Oh I found a new comm to subscribe to!

I don’t own one, but the previous (non wheeled ones) have been around for a while, they’re on Amazon with mixed reviews, people on Reddit seem to have been using them too.

This list price for this bigger more performant one seems pretty high though at $100k
