Lemmy’s 196 has been way more liberal than Reddit 196, and I’m really not a fan of it. Some of these comment sections are full of the “Not all men!” Crowd and it’s annoying AF.

Bsck when i used reddit i was told on 196 that I was being misogynistic when I, a trans man, talked about how I was receiving death threats irl after the Nashville shooting.

196 has always had its disappointing moments, I’m really sorry you had to go through that though. The amount of transphobia that case brought out of people was really hard to live with out in the Midwest.

I think it’s because 196 here is “bigger” in relative terms, so it shows up more in c/all, so you get more people from other places getting exposed.

Why do non-queer people have to ruin everything? :(

Ironically, the moderator who keeps insisting that it wasn’t transphobic is actually trans.
