Bearing in mind that I just admitted to not having been here at the time and thus having no actual information to go on, I would still caution against being too quick to pin the problems your community faces on an amorphous external force. More often there's some unexamined internal shit that's not being adequately confronted.
No, you're right. Thanks for pointing that out or I might not have realised. Sometimes things are subtle and if you haven't been put in the situation yourself it can be hard to see until someone sets it right.
Reading through that stupidpol thread is a trip. Imagine calling yourself a leftist and regurgitating literally the same exact nauseating shit Republicans used to say about gay people, but about your trans comrades (and having the gall to say "but trans people are totally cool!" while you're at it). Imagine calling yourself a leftist and actively trying to wreck other leftist spaces. Un-fucking-believable.
We were raided a few times by transphobes posing as users and it sucks that people are falling for it.

I would normally agree but keep in mind that stupidpol and cumtown have specifically been trying to get trans people to leave.

I wasn't saying is was all raiders but if it's as much as half internal then shit, you're right, we have a problem.

I'll try to be a better lister then. It's not like you're asking much.
