I don’t think the person on the left’s a transphobe, but I also don’t think they understand the scale of the harassment trans people face on a daily basis. Like it’s so bad the users would rather just have potential trolls ignored and downvoted than to see well meaning cis people come in and do vigilante justice using the same tactics of abuse trans people go through every day.

That empathetic disconnect looks like transphobia to some users. I don’t know that the users are right, but I understand how you reached that conclusion, especially with the person on the left’s days-long soapbox crashout about how despotic Ada is.

I honestly don't understand the whole problem from anyone. I hit the block button after 1 post, and I'm just shaking my head every time. I did the same for the person who insists on having their pronouns capitalized or something (and I'm reasonably sure it's the same person, but eh, block and move on).

It costs you nothing, it takes basically no time at all, and it makes your life and everyone else's experience better. Like blocking .ml

I annoyed myself for ten minutes reading their posts, realized they were a teenager looking for attention, and blocked.

Boom, no problems.

[-] TotallynotJessica 8 points 1 month ago

I didn't block anyone, yet the discussion has been the most annoying thing for me. Can we just move on?

I may be out of the loop:

What's up with .ml?

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

Lemmy.ml is the marxist-lenninist instance. It's VERY marxist-lenninist

[-] festnt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

oh so thats what the .ml means

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I mean technically .ml means the country of Mali, and they've been pushing to take their TLD back for a little bit now.

[-] Baguette@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Which is partially because of the surge in ai. All these startup companies wants to be associated with .ml (machine learning) and drives up the demand for these domains. If Mali gets it back, it could net a good amount of money.

There are a lot of people on it with very strong opinions that fall well outside the norm. From my experience, most of what goes on there is pretty innocuous, occasionally I’ll see something on the all page from there that makes me raise an eyebrow in disbelief, but like, not often enough to be a serious bother for me TBH.
