    If you are a trans am you should abstain in the general election. Because you are a car. And cars can’t vote. But I’m sure the supreme court is working on fixing that.

    Did you make up a post just to shit on an instance? Not only that, but you made this post on an instance that is defederated from the instance you have such a hateboner for. What’s the point?

      No, I made the post to shit on liberals. Hexbear is just the best example I could come up with of a liberal instance. I could have used ml or even blahaj, considering the existence of Liberal Hub @ Blahaj. I had to pick something for the username of the liberal troll.

    At least put a content warming up for this kind of thing. It may be edgy and entertaining for you but it can be harmful to many who are marginalized.

          No, I understand it, I just don’t think it’s appropriate. It’s extremely tactless, insensitive, and in bad taste.

            No, you definitely don’t understand it. Again, no one expects you to, so don’t strain yourself trying.

              Maybe you can explain how I’m misunderstanding it then. My understanding is that the meme is characterizing someone calling for abstention from the US political process as equivalent to telling trans people to kill themselves. Is that incorrect?

                It’s been explained in this thread, and the larger point has been explained to you in other threads (I’ve seen it).

                You’re either too stupid to get it, or genuinely that evil.

                Suffice to say, tankie punks fuck off.

      It’s not a joke where I tell trans people to kill themselves. It’s a joke where trolls tell me (who is a trans people) to kill myself.

      The part where it’s a joke is that I’m pretending they’re honest about it instead of hiding it behind dogwhistles.

      Maybe you could try actually understanding memes instead of running a keyword search for topics to get mad about

        your joke is someone says ‘dont vote’ and you read it as ‘kys’. Dont fool yourself into thinking those who stand against you are fools, we dont agree, does that make me a fool?

        I’m trying to tell you not to make jokes where anyone tells anyone else to kill themselves, and especially not to do it about marginalised groups, being trans doesnt give you a pass to do this. Galaxybrain move.

        I am trans, i wouldnt vote for joe biden, or any democrat. if someone tells you to kys report them and block them. Go outside. There is more important work to do than memeing for joe biden you dweeb. If someone says ‘hey dont vote for x’ or ‘hey i wont vote for x’ you can still vote, have fun, talk to people in the line, and tell them i said ‘hi’.

        I’m not here to debate you, I’m calling your shit ‘hexbear hates trans people’ out. go outside.

        Enjoy your election. Trans liberation will not be won through reform.

          Please don’t kill yourself, I’m sure you have plenty to live for. You’ve got a long life ahead of you with lots of surprises that could be really wonderful. I’m sure there are people who love you and would miss you, and if there’s not anyone in your life who makes you feel complete right now, you’re bound to meet someone special sooner or later. I know with all the political doom and gloom it can seem pointless, like there’s no point trying. But there is a point. They haven’t killed us yet and they’re not going to as long as we keep on fighting for our right to exist. If you need to talk to someone, you can call the number at https://988lifeline.org/. Your life is worth living.

            You’re doing an extremely gross and inappropriate bit. Stop trying to use this to score political points.

              I’m sorry but I’m never going to stand by while a fellow trans person tries to throw away their own life. You might think suicide is acceptable, but I don’t.

                This edgelord shit isn’t funny.

                Good to get confirmation that the whole Soulist grandstanding about “We’re the only ones who actually care about trans rights” is complete bullshit. If you actually cared you wouldn’t be using this as a bit. I’ll be sure to remember this next time you try to pull that shit.

                What are you, like 15 and testing boundaries and shit? Because that’s how this comes across.
