Can you point to the part where they said this? Because I can’t find the source of your accusation.

They liked a meme using trans suicide as a punchline and they absolutely refused to listen or be reasoned with when someone tried to raise concerns about how that could be harmful. They did not say it in so many words.

So… if they never said it- you really have no place accusing them of saying it.

And they had no place in immediately lobbing insults at me either, but I don't see you confronting them about it.

Literally the whole meme is accusing people of telling trans people to kill ourselves when they didn't actually say it. If your team gets to do it, then so do I.

So if they insult you, you get to rearrange their words and spit them back as lies? This isn’t helping anyone see you as the victim here.

And that is not what the meme is saying. It’s clearly calling out the trolling bullshit from hexbear.

Did you miss the meme? The ones where words are rearranged and spat back as lies? Take it up with OP.

If you single me out, while your friends do the exact same thing and you ignore it, it's not helping you come across as an impartial mediator.

Edit to your edit: Do you have an example of someone from Hexbear telling a trans person to kill themselves? OP didn't, that's why they made up the scenario whole cloth. Complete fabrication. Why aren't you calling this out?

I’m not engaging with you on this.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No I can't because it never happened.

Don't you have some sexual assault jokes to go make?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Your comment include the words "sexual assault" and therefore you are advocating for it.

Shame on you.
