anyone i see saying "i keep seeing waves of discourse but none of the actual inciting stuff lol just don't argue" needs to find like one single transfem friend because this current thing is actually kind of a big deal

i dont have much to say here honestly. i mostly listen to albums that are fed to me by youtube. i try to keep people updated to interesting stuff i listen to but often im just rewatching videos. i complain and gush about kirby sometimes (a lot an abnormal amount), especially the mopupu manga. my life is a wreck which is a majority of my posts. i dont recommend following unless you uhhh like my thoughts or love hearing about kirby. im a major btw, not a minor. trans masc, bi, tme, mexican in the usa.

im transfem and only see the discourse even when i go looking for the inciting stuff, it's genuinely possible to not see it
I (transfem) also don't see the inciting stuff. And I don't mean to be rude but OP makes me feel like it is somehow my fault, like I should know what is happening (which I still do not), I might be misreading this... You know what, I am probably be misreading this, they are clearly not directing it to me because I'd never say shit like "just don't argue lmao". Like I'm already terminally online you can't ask me to be even more, remember that Cohost doesn't have a content serving algorithm
Probably over half my follows are trans women and literally the only thing I see is vagueposting about the discourse. As best I can tell, going back several days on several blogs, either this site or tumblr has staff who refused to ban someone for transphobia, and then banned a trans woman who complained about the lack of ban?
Also apparently Rita Predstrogen and at least one trans man argued about something and now people are arguing who's more bigoted against the other, if at all.
And both issues are inflamed because it's yet one more website that trans women thought wouldn't have these problems but it becomes increasingly clear that the only time you can fully trust moderation is when you're doing it yourself like in an old-web webring, forum, or mailing list.
