Looks like my account was banned/restricted for the above interaction, have
already sent the mods on world an email asking if they'd be willing to reverse
that. Had an episode of psychosis a few months ago where I did say some
offensive stuff, (understandably) got a 3 month ban on .lol for that, so could
see my account having been flagged. I uh, I don’t think it’s reasonable to
expect people to check others profiles to ensure we are correctly pronouning
them… when making a throw away comment that is less than 10 words involving a
ludicrously common saying. Jerboa does not show users pronouns. I could switch
to an app that DOES show the pronouns, do any Lemmings have a recommendation for
a free Lemmy mobile app that has that feature? Edit: Edie chimed in, Jerboa does
show pronouns. It's a formatting issue with mobile vs browser (She has them on
individual text lines so they don't appear on mobile). Was just going to respond
to the user in question to let them know I wasn't purposefully trying to offend
that individual, to discover I'm not able to post or make comments on world now,
so figured I'd see what y'alls opinion on the matter is.

What percentage of the populace do you think knows what the transgender flag looks like? :|
Noo, it is an honest question. I'm a digital native, been to a decent amount of gay bars, even worked as security for pride in my city this year. Have probably seen the flag, have never had it come up that "yep this is the flag for the trans community". Outside of Hamburgerland where transgenderism has become so politicized, huge press X to doubt people know what that flag is. Most folks on the planet are Indian, Chinese, or in an Islamic country of some sort. Now do tell, dear blakeus12. How do all of those cultures treat LGBTQ+ people :| if it was a question of how many people in the US recognized the flag, different story.
"Digital native" means a jagoff that really bought into the techbro propaganda and is so alienated that they call the living breathing offline world "meatspace" and other euphoric shit like that.
