(1,962 posts)It's not going to stop any other way. In the last six months or so, since the "Handful of DUers" post, it's only gotten worse. Every sports/Lia Thomas thread turns into a circular firing squad. She's now being used as a bludgeon the trans community over other trans-related issues. And I have to sat back and see trans people misgendered like reply #3 ("essence of male privilege"? How bigoted can one get!?)..
Or posts about biology...
Or claims that doctors are trying to convert cis people into trans people...
Or stuff like "41% is a lie"...
And yeah.. Saw the same shit with the Rowling threads last week too. I'm sure it'd be more of the same over Chappelle, but, he's crawled into a hole and is hiding and isn't being brought up lately.
I'm sorry, but, "To the handful of DUers" isn't gonna cut it. It's time for action to put a stop to the bigotry around here.
Ohhh... And I alerted on this today to the admins. So this survived a jury (probably 0-7 the way things seem to be lately) and an alert to the admins. But, I know... I know.. I'm supposed to keep calm and be civil.
