Example of some of the hate I get from Lemmy users
Here's a friendly little DM from from @EndlessApollo@lemmy.world
You’re a sellout piece of shit, how fucking dare you support a party that wants to detransition you and kill minorities. Please kill yourself and send me video so I can laugh at it :3
That's a pretty bad comment - probably unjustified
Theoretically speaking though, what would a community member have to do to justify that comment? Maybe support a party that is systematically destroying democracy, replacing it with kleptocracy? That supports cruelty as though it was a fun sport? That supports racism? That dismisses health and climate science as though it was just someone's opinion? All of the above and more? Would that be enough to justify such harshness?
Just wondering.
Regardless of what you think of a political party, it's not cool to ask someone to kill themselves and film it so you can laugh at it. A difference of political opinions doesn't mean that people stop being human.
I agree with the first part. I don't think you should kill yourself, but if you moved to Africa forever, I wouldn't mind.
I'm fine with someone wanting me to move away. Not so cool with them asking me to kill myself and videotape it for them!
I have been to parts of Africa, and it's beautiful! But I won't be moving there.
Now if you wanna start a little gofundme thang and ship me off to Ireland, let's do it!!! lol
Don't call them out, report that shit.
Doesn't matter what ideology you subscribe to, that's just toxic, shitty behavior.
I reported and .world banned them for 2 days. LMAO
Thank you.
I've just arrived home from vacation and this is what I found when I logged in. My bf read it before I did and yelled out a "What the fuck?!" So I came to see what he was talking about and see that DM. My bf is very upset. Sucks because I was just talking up how great Lemmy is. And then he sees that message directed toward me. :/
Very troubling that there are people like this on here.
I reported the DM via the flag icon on the actual DM and sent a message to @ruud@lemmy.world an admin for .world, but I don't know if that was the right person to report it to or not.
@EndlessApollo@lemmy.world has been perma-banned from this sub. Sick messages asking for someone to kill themselves will not be tolerated here.
Sorry you had to deal with that, OP.
Another example of how extreme and hateful Lemmy can be to the trans community on here...just because some of us are conservatives.
They are truly insufferable. Lot of crybabies on this app. I'd imagine half the users here have blue hair, piercings, white guilt, and pride flag bumper stickers.
