Me and Lunacid. Immediately started a new playthrough after 100%-ing it.

I like how you used arguments that were/are used by T-exclusive LGB folks to dehumanize a different marginalized group and Lemmy users just ate it up.

It makes a mockery of real [gender issues | issues homosexuals deal with]. I fully support anyone who wants to [be anywhere on the spectrum of existing genders | live openly with their partner of the same sex]. What I’m not sure I support is indulging people’s possible mental illness by pretending it’s ok that they believe [they’re a fictional creature that only exists in fantasy | can just change their sex to the opposite].

You even used the “they’re just mentally ill” argument against them, you don’t even try to hide that you’re just riding a wave of what’s socially accepted already and what’s not yet.

I fully support anyone who wants to be anywhere on the spectrum of existing genders.

Can you list all these genders you accept so I know which ones are pure fantasy for you? Y’know, mere twenty years ago most people wouldn’t say more than two of them.

We know that it is possible for people to be assigned one sex at birth, but then fit anywhere in the spectrum. We also know that it is not possible for someone’s gender to be “unicorn.” Because unicorns aren’t real

“Men” and “women” are just social roles made up in the Stone Age and changed somewhat during the centuries of human history, that are just so happened to be bound to our genitals. There’s nothing real about it.

When people on the left legitimize these people’s obviously absurd claims, it is used as a cudgel to harm the trans community.

Are we politicians or what? Why should we make our identity ‘presentable’ for bigots?

Fixed it, it should work now!

Yeah, it was it. Why was it starting by default though? I don’t recall fiddlying with pipewire at all…

I figured my comment was more dismissive than helpful so I’ll elaborate a bit. I was following the website a year or so ago and noticed they were constantly updating their articles so I subscribed to their RSS feed.

Then I saw a lot of conspiralogical weirdness, enough to quickly retaliate and unsubscribe.

They also have an article about forum software where they praised some imageboards while dismissing raddle because it’s leftist.

There’s another website about web browser privacy called privacy watchdog or something, it’s partially based on the DD’s articles but with no conspiralogical BS in it (unless they’re added it recently).

The author of the article is a COVID denier if I remember correctly.

Be safe, and good luck.

Thank you good stranger!

@HelixDab2@lemm.ee I don’t see your reply from my instance for some reason so I’ll reply this way.

Try to get asylum in a less awful country.

Easier said than done unfortunately.

BTW, just want to point out that the implicit assumption here is that OP is queer, and wants to fund a support group. But it’s also possible that OP is homophobic, and wants to find queer people in order to publicly out them.

This is a fair concern although I doubt bigots would ask here instead of e.g. Reddit.

Yeah… I also read their wikipedia pages and they seem to sell a lot of sensitive info of their users. Not very trustworthy unfortunately.

Thank you, I’ll look into it!

Most people are on a local FB-like social media that’s extremely toxic. Also requires a phone number for registration… but I will think on it.

Someone actually recomended datapps to me to find queers so thank you for this warning. Though I would skip them anyway because they’re such a privacy nightmare.

what made you get out of that situation

A lot of help and support from people around me. Without them I would never be able to finish my college. And then overcoming my social awkwardness with a patient and caring person. Also gaining economic independence was huge for me.

I was kinda like your friend. There’s probably some obstacle that prevents her from working on herself. It’s easy with depression/anxiety to just blame yourself while ignoring obvious external reason.

There’s an option in settings, although it isn’t perfect.

Reminds me of this

Experience doesn’t matter because if you’re inexperienced you have to go outside your Comfort zone, if you’re experienced you got there because you like going outside your comfort zone and you will constantly stay in that state.

I was experimenting a lot during my early Linux months but then I found what works for me and settled with it. I don’t leave my comfort zone much anymore.

Not really, uBO blocks some known stuff like cookie notices while Kill Sticky removes every fixed element on a webpage. It’s actually more similar to Reader View.
