The transphobia stops now (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This community is housed on an instance run by two trans women, focused on the needs of the queer and gender diverse community.

We allowed 196 here because we were promised the community is queer and trans inclusive.

If you're here it's because you're aggressively supportive of trans folk. Not middle of the ground, not "just asking questions".

If your response to that is, "yes, but..." then this isn't the instance for you, and by extension, this isn't the community for you.

tl;dr - Unambiguous support and inclusion, or fuck off somewhere else.

--

Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to "unambiguous support", as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

I'm not part of that community either. I'm truly amazed at the number of indignant comments like yours, which demonstrate that you took the post as addressed to you. It obviously wasn't. It was explicitly addressed to posters on 196. I'd recommend being less self-centered, but if you disagree, I'm sure that community would be happy to see you go.
