Here’s a friendly little DM from from @[email protected]

You’re a sellout piece of shit, how fucking dare you support a party that wants to detransition you and kill minorities. Please kill yourself and send me video so I can laugh at it :3

    That’s a pretty bad comment - probably unjustified

    Theoretically speaking though, what would a community member have to do to justify that comment? Maybe support a party that is systematically destroying democracy, replacing it with kleptocracy? That supports cruelty as though it was a fun sport? That supports racism? That dismisses health and climate science as though it was just someone’s opinion? All of the above and more? Would that be enough to justify such harshness?

    Just wondering.

      Regardless of what you think of a political party, it’s not cool to ask someone to kill themselves and film it so you can laugh at it. A difference of political opinions doesn’t mean that people stop being human.

        I agree. We should all be realizing this is a time to reform the executive branch and come together as a nation. But Trump, MAGA media and MAGA influencers are making it impossible.

    I agree with the first part. I don’t think you should kill yourself, but if you moved to Africa forever, I wouldn’t mind.

      I’m fine with someone wanting me to move away. Not so cool with them asking me to kill myself and videotape it for them!

      I have been to parts of Africa, and it’s beautiful! But I won’t be moving there.

      Now if you wanna start a little gofundme thang and ship me off to Ireland, let’s do it!!! lol

    Don’t call them out, report that shit.

    Doesn’t matter what ideology you subscribe to, that’s just toxic, shitty behavior.

      Thank you.

      I’ve just arrived home from vacation and this is what I found when I logged in. My bf read it before I did and yelled out a “What the fuck?!” So I came to see what he was talking about and see that DM. My bf is very upset. Sucks because I was just talking up how great Lemmy is. And then he sees that message directed toward me. :/

      Very troubling that there are people like this on here.

      I reported the DM via the flag icon on the actual DM and sent a message to @[email protected] an admin for .world, but I don’t know if that was the right person to report it to or not.

          Thank you. Honestly. I used your message as an example to my bf of what kind of people Lemmy should be made of. People who are open-minded, even if on opposing sides of the political spectrum.

          In my experience most people are Lemmy are pretty cool, but I’m been noticing an uptick in extreme hatred from people who self-describe as “left.”

          I for sure don’t subscribe to everything he convervative party does, but in my little area, the conservatives have been cool and welcoming to me. Seeing a hateful comment like that was definitely a new thing for me. This kind of division is bad for everyone, regardless of political party.

            The “opposing view” here is that immigrants deserve prison, that trans people deserve detransition, that Epstein’s survivors deserve no justice, that vaccines don’t work, that climate change isn’t real, that people should be forced to give birth, and a million other reprehensible things. You support the republican party, you support all that shit, bc that’s what they want to do. Fuck off pretending your fascist bullshit is cool and tolerant just bc it’s less fascist than trump xD

    That was a cringe thing to say, it’s not a thing I normally would ever say to another trans person and I’m sorry. Not that sorry tho, your support (not just support, but owns and posts in a conservative lemmy com) for a party that will never want less than detransition for us is gonna lead to a lot more trans people killing themselves. Again, you’re a sellout piece of shit and you need to realize that the right is never going to see you as one of The Good Ones. There are no good ones, in their eyes we’re all trannies that wanna groom kids and assault women, and you’re unfathomably fucking stupid if you think they’ll make an exception for you or any other trans people if you’re just respectable enough. Fuck you, I hope they eat your face before mine 💖

    Another example of how extreme and hateful Lemmy can be to the trans community on here…just because some of us are conservatives.

    They are truly insufferable. Lot of crybabies on this app. I’d imagine half the users here have blue hair, piercings, white guilt, and pride flag bumper stickers.
