A supportive, loving community run by and for LGBTQ+ people and their allies.

Feel free to discuss anything related to LGBTQ+ issues, and remember that despite everything, we all very literally are in this together.

Rules:

Kindness Always

No name-calling, trolling, ad-homs, personal attacks, strawmanning, or disrespectful or abusive behavior toward any other member.

No Bigotry

This should go without saying, but any homophobia, transphobia, racism/sexism/any kind of -ism is not allowed. “It’s just a joke” is not an excuse. Any sort of needling to try to convince the mods or anyone else to accept such behavior is not acceptable either.

No Spam, NSFW, Or Other Disruptive Content or Behavior

Please respect our community and don’t use it to post spam, porn, gore, or any other disruptive content.

Please Tag All Discussions About The Sub with [Meta]

Any meta threads or discussions, suggestions, etc. needs to be tagged with [Meta] in the title, that way it’ll be easier for mods to find. If you have any issues with another member or what-have-you, please message a mod.

Hateful People or Members of Hate Groups Not Allowed

No Nazis, fascists, anti-LGBTQ+ folks, or any member of any groups predisposed to discriminate against or cause trouble for LGBTQ+ people or the community. This includes members of the U.S. right wing. We care about the safety and well-being of our community and that means we won’t allow anyone who will threaten or endanger LGBTQ+ people in the sub, and sadly, the U.S. political situation has become volatile enough where a ban of this caliber has become necessary.

Please Tag Titles Of Sensitive Posts With [TW] or [CW]

Please put one of those tags on any post talking about rape, suicide, or self-harm.

English Only Please

Posts and comments must be in English only so they can be properly moderated.

Note: failure to abide by the rules may result in a ban depending on severity.

Rules subject to change based on community need.

The comment: https://old.reddit.com/r/lgbt/comments/1jewztr/trump_freezes_175m_of_upenn_funds_over_trans_women/mimzz9u/

This was forbidden by the OWNERS of website, not the subreddit moderators. They forbid certain keywords in comments. The content of the forbidden message:

 

Donald Trump / White House has lost "Hearts and Minds" to Vlad Putin / Kremlin information warfare, KGB / FSB mental manipulation has won the Hybrid Warfare against USA / NATO

 

Rewind to December 2013 when this information warfare started

 

Please study this December 20, 2013 story in The Atlantic about Putin's announcement of gender topics being the way he is going to manipulate the world in information warfare.

December 20, 2013
By Brian Whitmore
Vladimir Putin is calling on the conservatives of the world to unite—behind him. The Kremlin leader's full-throated defense of Russia's "traditional values" and his derision of the West's "genderless and infertile"

I was looking through posts on Lemmy and came across a long list of posts solely linked to reddit

If they copy the content of the Reddit over to Lemmy and other places, I think that's a good thing. Public resources of information, Usenet roots of social media, are incredibly important. Reddit (content) isn't built upon private social media, it's primary public shared social media, and preservation and community accessible content (advertising free on Lemmy) is valuable to the whole World Wide Web / Pale Blue Dot. We need more and more Wikipedia style content that is contributed to all humanity and not so many people obsessed with egoism and self-centered content creation.

Agreed. Let's just eliminate the link so that no clicks go their way. I love Wiki but self-centered comments have their place. I think getting people to question the whole fandom paradigm would be a healthy add on.

Really? I said: "many people obsessed with egoism and self-centered content creation"

And you support this? Egomania like Elon Musk?

They instill many emotions that are helpful in promoting discourse. Not all but you have to take the bad with the good.
