    Imma take a look

    Not surprising. Being trans feels a lot like being straight.

    I hope they mean this in like a very very good way

    Grandma doesn’t have a gender and doesn’t realise why people who have genders think they’re important. She’d be equally happy identifying as a man and she doesn’t realise that’s unusual.

    okay please explain to me what this means I legit am just ????ing at this right now

    Hexbear is transphobic. They harassed me the whole time I was there

    I bet my life savings they were saying dumb libshit or discriminatory bullshit and high tailed it because they got rightly dunked for it

    oh god they mainly post on beehaw, Lemmygrad basically created that community after a bunch of lemmy gusanos raged that their terminal liberalism got absolutely torn to shreds by the effortposting gods.

    Okay they seem to be completely genuine too, because they have good takes mixed in with it. Critical support to them dragging CookieJarObserver (some of you remember this "I AM THE OBSERVER" fucking weirdo) through shit on Israel.

    Now that i've looked through, you could be right, because they have hexbear takes everywhere besides when they're hating on hexbear, okay and some libshit about finding 'unbiased leftist sources'

    my real contention is finding out their posting on hexbear, what were they arguing about. Give it to us you nerd, I dare you!

    I'm going to be on the side of 'they're just really libshit' because its just too authentic

      From its lemmy.blahaj.zone modlog (where it's also banned):

      I'm not a troll. You can go look up my new Hexbear account I made after they told me Hexbear wasn't transphobic, and you can see me talking about my gender consistently for the past week, and you can see transphobes on Hexbear calling me an anti-hexbear troll because they think swarmgenders are a joke.

      I am begging you, Each of You, Any of You, who understand what events this references to please fill me in on them or tell me what to search to read this history.

      I have mentioned before that I was confused by the attitude towards Beehaw around here and I mostly get it now, but this is the missing piece of the puzzle. I didn't know there was a whole Thing that happened, I thought it was just a vibes mismatch.

      Please, Elder Posters: teach me!

        short version: well it was in the early months of the ukraine war, and some terminal brained liberals who were there started getting really angry in the news articles. Every news post had 50 or so comments at least with Yogthos and the others (I was there yay im so cool im like the best and smartest) basically predicting how the ukraine war would turn out with lots of sources whos predictions were a mirror image of how the war is turning out now (marxist leninists stay winning). This got some folks really, really mad, so they decided to find and hide in a 'free speech' instance, beehaw. The biggest immigration to beehaw were people part of the massively pro-ukraine crowd. They had nazis and turbolibs joining hands and frolicking into the sunset. Beehaw and lemmygrad were basically enemies for a bit, vying for political dominance now that lemmy.ml couldn't ban them for whitewashing nazis and the like, but Lemmygrad has since grown far beyond such losers.

        It was a collection of events over the course of twoish months, with like a one and a halfish month stalemate period.

        @GrainEater@lemmygrad.ml @yogthos@lemmygrad.ml know it better than me prob, i can remember them arguing with the libs

          Thank you for helping me understand the basics and giving me the clues to dig further when I have time.

          irl, I'm a Sweetie, the "let's make a nice place for nice people" stuff appeals to me because the world is so full of meanness and cruelty. And then the layers get peeled back, and oh look, this is also mean and cruel, just in a totally different way. 😑

          and I'm autistic and a lot of stuff just flies over my head unless someone is kind enough to explain it to me - thank you. ❤️ I really do appreciate your time.

        Considering Beehaw users were constantly, constantly stirring shit on lemmy and elsewhere about defederating with and opposing "tankies" and, iirc, pre-emptively defederated from us, I think the attitude is self-explanatory. They are shitlibs.

      if it's not 100% pure made up trolling, i think that resembles "unselfaware bisexual from generation that didn't talk about that sort of thing assuming everybody else has hetero- and homo- attractions too" but for gender. She/Him Grandma, if grandma exists, as described would be some kind of NB or on the apathetic end of agender.
