Nice, but what have you done today so that more people see this info, so that we have less next door ignorance like what is manifested all over Lemmy?
Maybe I missed the joke, but he did write up an informative, sourced and well laid out comment about it? I for one found it interesting, I knew of the general reasoning but hadn't taken the time to research the facts behind it.
Exactly. I said it is so good that more people should see it.
Let's do our part people and stop downvoting each other...
Maybe you could help, instead of bemoaning that the one who already worked hard didn’t work hard enough? They’re already flat-out sprinting toward your four-wheel drive goalposts.
Man dial it down a bit, I am combating transphobic ignorance on Lemmy almost full time. I am just worried that the only ones seeing our good arguments are you and me. Otherwise, I won't respond to that tone.
I got in trouble a moment ago and had my comment removed cause I said unsavory things about you.
Quit your sealioning, yeah? I looked down your post history and have a reasonable belief you’re better than this.
