Yeah I'm tired of the vagueposting about chauvinism. It's been a thing for a while now that - funnily enough - the users who have been showing their asses for the past few days, have been pushing for a reckoning with "chauvinism" targeting the comms they dislike. It's always just been a general vague handwave about chauvinism.
Words are cheap, and they're fucking worthless when they come from people who are fine being ableist and misgendering others.
Vague-posting can be toxic, but calling out specific users in a huge thread like this can be toxic too. The chaos in here is overwhelming enough as it is.
autistic user asking a genuine question for clarification:
do you truly feel like specificity would have made this more chaotic?
I have noted in other comments that I have not been on top of this the whole time, but it seems to me like a lot of the heat has come from the vagueness and generalizations. is that not your impression? if not, could you help me understand why you think that way?
🤷😭 I'm sorry. I've done my best to read everything – including the old thread you linked, and all of the comments in these threads – to try to understand. being told to just go read it all again isn't helping.
please don't ban me for trying to understand what is happening with one of the few lifelines I have. my 17yo trans son is a senior in high school, we live in Ohio, we need this place.
