Reported less than five of this dipshit’s posts and he ended up banning me from all of his communities. Doesn’t really surprise me. I’ve known that reports on Lemmy are faulty and Admin only reports, or more control of who receives them has been suggested but Lemmy’s devs never listen.

My advice is to just send messages directly to your Admins as well as his admins, then he can’t intercept them.

  • First of all, WTF are you talking about? You didn’t say “cos I wouldn’t classify transphobia as genocide;” you said “cos I wouldn’t classify transphobia as nazism.” Naziism is not only about genocide. You’re moving goalposts.

    Wtf are u trying to justify? When someone is called a Nazi should I be thinking they wanna kill millions of people what an awful person? Cos it sound an awful lot like it trying to justify me thinking a Nazi is someone who doesn’t like trans people in their bathroom.

    Second, trans people (and all the other kinds of LGBT, for that matter), were exterminated in the camps right alongside the Jews! They are included in that “6 million people” you just cited!

    This is completely irrelevant to my point.

      You’re being reported a lot and I’m trying to understand what point you’re trying to make here before I decide what action to take

      Is it that transphobia is not a serious issue and therefore comparing it to nazis is out of line? is it that calling trapshobes “nazis” cheapens the impact of labeling people as “nazis” and you’re trying to preserve the impact of the word? Is it that all nazis are transphobes but not all transphobes are nazis? What exactly are you trying to argue here?

        My point is:

        Hateful speech != mass murder.

        Its by calling a transphobe a Nazi it absolutely is cheapening the impact of the word Nazi.

        Is it that all nazis are transphobes but not all transphobes are nazis?

        I don’t think this is necessarily true (although I suspect ur assertion would be accurate for the most part). But its irrelevant to the issue that Hateful speech != mass murder.

        If u look at my comments I haven’t hated on anyone or supported transphobia or Nazis. I think both are wrong I simply think being a Nazi is significantly worse. I guess people are incapable of subtlety and thus report.

          Honestly, I think it’s not worth trying to fight for this hill, but if you’re going to do it, at least try to make from the onset clear what your point is, because one could argue that you seem to be trying to argue something else.

      The reality you refuse to acknowledge is that the millions of people the Nazis wanted to kill included trans people.

      You are trying to create a distinction that doesn’t exist in order to spread disinformation and transphobic hate, “no true Scotsman”-ing Nazis in order to pretend they were different from MAGAs in a way they are 100% not.

      You’re a fucking Nazi/MAGA apologist and it’s time for you to get banned.

      • U completely misunderstand what I’m trying to say. Let’s solve this with a trolley problem.

        U have a trolley on a track with 3 options on track A u have 2 trans people, 3 Jews, 4 coloured people, and 2 mentally disabled. On track B u have 2 trans people and that’s it and on track C u have no people.

        Obviously track C is ideal. All I’m trying to say is the guy who switches track c to track a is significantly worse than the guy who switched track c to track b. And by saying both these people are equivalent is undermining the word used for the guy who switched track c to track a.

        Btw do u think ~50% of Americans are Nazis cos they voted for trump?

          Nazis tie trans people to railroad tracks and choose to run them over and you’re saying Nazis aren’t transphobic. There’s not a finite number of tracks. They chose who they were killing. The fact is that they chose to kill trans people. They didn’t have to (they didn’t have to kill anyone), but they did.

          1. There is no track B. What you think is track B is, in reality, simply the beginning of track A. I know that’s true this time because that’s also how it started last time, a point I’ve made three times in this conversation.
          2. 50% of Americans didn’t vote for Trump; that’s another lie. It was more like a third. And yes, I do think that many Americans are Nazis, as it is remarkably similar to the percentage of Germans who supported them back in the 1930s.
          3. Also, holy WTF on crassly equivocating people’s lives like that.
