People don’t stop being trans because you disagree with them politically. I despise Jenner and other high profile trans grifters but I’m not shitty enough to deny their identities.

Do better. As a user of both sites this shit is genuinely upsetting. Despite how you may feel about hexbear, how can you claim that they bait people into revealing their internalized transphobia and then turn around and make shitty claims like this? I don’t give a shit if you call me a tankie or red fash or whatever, but I’m trans whether you like me or not.

    Maybe I’m misreading it, but it seemed like that user was implying there’s a 60% chance that all of Hexbear isn’t trans, like the whole instance is one great big LARP. I don’t have an account, but I’ve lurked Hexbear every now and then, and I’ve never seen someone “break character”. That would be an incredibly impressive feat if it were true.

      No they’re not 100% trans, but their cis users aren’t pretending to be trans during these interactions like the user is insinuating.

        Sorry, more what I meant was that they were implying that none of Hexbear was trans. I do understand that not everyone there is, same as is true here on Blahaj too. That’s a ridiculous accusation to make, I’ve never seen anyone there “break character”. There’s like 2K active monthly users and 25k total, a conspiracy like that is bound to have become apparent at some point before now if it were true.

          Ah my bad yeah, that was how I originally took the inciting comments.

            Yeah, I fully agree, that’s some truscum-level stuff for sure. It reeks of “you’re not being trans correctly” respectability politics.
