Lemmy is a worse platform for women than Reddit was EDIT this link is an OLD POST that contains my thesis on the state of lemmy and is not the context of the much more recent comment in the screenshot. sorry for any confusion caused by this juxtaposition, my main goal with having this linked is to expose how nothing has improved

I'm kinda tired of arguments that expect the minoritized group to not "radicalize" the majority group. Why is it on the people who are being oppressed to not offend people aren't even necessarily oppressors? Honestly, this comment is tone deaf as fuck.

It's respectability politics. The same as when people complain about climate protestors blocking roads etc. There's a huge segment of society that cares more about avoiding any sort of conflict than achieving just outcomes.
