The yellow skin is the racist trope. And there might be other tropes there that I’m personally not aware of.

That’s irrelevant. If a nonjewish person draws a antisemitic caricature of Netanyahu it’s still racist and offensive to all jewish people.

Nowhere did I state that. In the context that white people have a history of dehumanising Chinese people through yellow caricatures it is pretty suspect that white people are jumping at the chance to joke about a Chinese person looking like a yellow bear, often while they repeat US state propaganda about China.

They’re exercising their right to protest

The meme, as used by westerners, is a racist caricature regardless of its origin. Jewish people also used to make caricatures about themselves as inside joke, nazi’s appropriating those caricatures was and is still racist regardless of the origin of the caricatures.

Serbian protests had the support of most of the general population. The students faced a lot of state violence as well, but this only made their case stronger and caused more people to join. Protests like these for the most part are a numbers game. The more people join in the safer it is. The US population has been pacified and I see the only way to improve conditions is to agitate and depacify.

So you’re right that the condition in the US are different and that a different approach might be needed, but sitting by and doing nothing will for sure not help. I’m really tired of people on lemmy throwing their hands in the air while less fortunate people are being harmed by your government’s actions. It pains me to see how little people actually care if it turns out they need to actually make sacrifices to change anything.

Are you trans? Or do you just accept your government abusing trans people because ‘people voted for it’. Stop acting like voting is all you can do to protect minority groups.

Gender is a social construct and ‘biological gender’ doesn’t exist in the way that the phrase is frequently used.

Serbian students have been occupying most university faculties for months to organise and facilitate the protests. You don’t get your leaders to step down by complaining on the internet.

the thing people were whining about is a fucking genocide you monster

Most social media? Instagram, youtube, tumblr, bluesky. And I bet there’s tons of forums by and for women.

There’s many internet spaces that are better than lemmy regarding misogyny, any platform that does not have a strong majority of cis men is probably better than lemmy.

I was on trollx and it was a nice community. A community with a name derived from two X chromosomes will never be fully trans inclusive though.

The is why dull_mens_club gives me really bad vibes. Any similar community aimed at women would be harassed into oblivion.

It’s become a habit for many people. Cooking is a really difficult habit to (re)learn. It’s possible though and good meal prep is very convenient on long days at work.

It’s scary but it also made me feel more free to cross other societal boundaries.

The term is very commonly not used that way though, adding it to the rules will drive away leftists that also don’t like people getting run over by tanks.

some users are stupid and focus on pedantry and technicalities

The wording of this is a bit ableist. Alternative:

some users focus disproportionately on pedantry and technicalities, causing possibly difficult communication.

Misogyny should be added to list of no prejudices since it was common on the previous community.

Also I’ll repeat my request for removing ‘no tankie behavior’ because ‘tankie’ has no consensus definition which makes it a divisive term. In this community I’ve seen several people describe all Marxist Leninists as ‘tankies’. I strongly dislike sectarianism and I would like ML’s to feel welcome here. Any posts that are harmful to the community should just be moderated on the basis of its harm.

Is there an origin story for this community? (I love it)
