Can't take being misgendered and harassed. He/himed. People starting arguments over their own intolerance and blaming the arguments on drag. In so much pain. Hopes this post won't lead to more pain. What do you do when nobody will believe you're hurt, and every time you scream out in pain, you're accused of having an agenda? What kind of agenda is just not wanting to be harassed anymore? They think they're winning when they fill a thread with drama and then complain about all the drama. They think they're doing something right? How do you tell people you're honestly suffering and have them believe you?

self-harm thoughts

Do you just cut your skin open and show it to them? Is that how you convince them that they're causing you pain? HOW? How the fuck do you convince them that your pain isn't a trick?

They tell you to block them while they misgender you and tell the whole world you're the devil. "Just ignore everything I'm doing to hurt you and you'll be okay". It doesn't make any sense but they think it's right. They could choose to disengage this very minute but they don't. They think harassment and misgendering is a crusade of justice. That hurting people is a moral good, but oh no, don't you dare claim you're hurt when I hurt you.

How the fuck do you post your tears on lemmy?

For what it's worth I never thought drag were a troll and found it very inspiring and brave of drag to keep being drags true self even when others were very shitty towards drag, however it is a shame that it's even a battle drag has to fight. I will also say that drag has made me a better and more accepting person, obviously we haven't interacted much but drag being here and posting drag memes has made me understand nounself pronouns a lot more. Hell a friend of mine recently came out and uses nano as the pronoun. So I thank drag for being drag and even if it doesn't seem like it drag has made a good difference to the people in this community and even for the whole community!

(Ps not sure if using you is okay or should I use drag instead, if it's drag then I'll edit the post)

Same. At first I was one of the people who downvoted drag, but seeing drag always use the correct pronouns and face hate for it made me realize that it isn't just a gimmick and that that "I should self reflect on this".
