  Clothes very similar to the stereotypical “african clothes”, they have dark skin and it is a core part of their identity, they got the actor of Tyler as a way to have an “exotic” accent, they also made them cannibals, with weird voodoo religious rituals with suggested (even if not so simple) rape, and if I’m not mistaken they commit terrorist suicide attacks as well.

  They feel like a concentrated mix of the racist ideas gathered over the past 200 years, and are used to show that they are scary. Or to make it more obvious, they are shown like “exotic brown people who hate the white ones, and just want to eat them, rape them, and suicide on them to mass murder civilians to instill fear”.

  I’m not the only one who noticed that but I really can’t understand how anyone can not see it.

  The weird ultra-racist stereotypes that sounded like they were designed by a colony-supporter of another era?

  I wouldn’t call it a salty broth but a big racist piece of shit.

  They would just call them by their name or by a nickname. Or by mom or dad if the parents don’t care about that.

  You do understand though that the subject was brought by fascists trying to push the narrative of trans as a threat, and that all of the posts about trans rights are trying to counter this overflowing narrative, right?

  Also I’m sorry but you never need to cooperate with the nazis. If you consider that a minority should be eliminated simply because they are not like you, you do not deserve any form of respect or attention. Or as I’ve seen before, if you are in a protest and someone is undisturbed waving a nazi flag, you are part of a nazi protest.

  You are (intentionally or not, hard to say) pushing the typical stance of the “enlightened centrist” that goes on to say “both sides are wrong so I’m not going to pick sides” which effectively is the same as siding with the fascists. And for the sake of argument, even if people were pushing trans right “too much” (it’s not the case), then so what? If it bothers you so much then it’s probably because you’re against it, I myself am subscribed to a trans community that tends to post a lot of news that I don’t necessarily care to read, but I just keep it because I think it is important to know about it and if I don’t feel like reading it I just skip it. Why on earth would I see it as divisive, unless I am hurt by the existence of trans people?

  All in all, it doesn’t feel like you are genuine and if you are, you are definitely misguided (or influenced?), either way your messages only help and support the narrative of fascists who love the idea that fighting for trans rights could be seen as the cause of chaos and division, it’s their newest scapegoat after all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how to get unbanned from communities?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t define anything like that. What you criticized was people defending trans rights, which definitely is transphobic. Don’t try to sugarcoat and blur what you initially said.

  And if no one gives a shit and the rights are deserved, how do you justify being annoyed with it? If I see people fighting for the right to eat cold fries I’d say “sure, go ahead”, I wouldn’t start opposing them and saying that they’re sowing division. The difference of course being that trans rights are a serious matter.

  You’re just trying to suggest, intentionally or not, that defending trans people is negative for society, and if that is not transphobic I don’t know what is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how to get unbanned from communities?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wanting rights for a minority is gaslighting and sowing division?

  Please, I’m very excited to hear your explanation of how, without being a transphobic piece of shit. Please, go on.

  I mean if you don’t mean anything bad you won’t get banned, right? ;)

  It’s a service mostly used to download torrents “safely”, one of the use cases being to pair it with something like Kodi as a free netflix alternative. Either way it’s, afaik, mostly used to download torrents faster and with less hassle.

  “Why do people call their government right wing despite not having slavery?”

  Since when is the lack of healthcare the norm, and healthcare the “leftist anomaly”?

  The US really made the world so much worse, it’s crazy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why would an all loving god create hell?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The idea of punishment is to prevent further misbehaviours, not to throw shit back at the kids. The goal is to teach the proper behaviour.

  But hell is supposed to be eternal, and as such there is no evolving from it, making it not a punishment but a torture.

  Now if you believe in torturing kids who misbehave just for the sake of making them suffer, that’s something else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do i see so many americans obsessed with the concept of "this is a thing that [Ethnicity] does"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Americans” are not an ethnicity. Talking about the culture of a country is nothing similar to attaching innate characteristics to a person based on origin/skin color/etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you also feel cringe about people making such a big deal about ethnicity?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This does not require ethnicity at all.

  If someone is discriminated because of an ethnicity they don’t actually have (let’s say a Mexican being targeted as an “arab”) should they not get compensation ?

  According to your logic, you need ethnicity to give compensation which means that you require victims to have a specific ethnicity to be recognised, but it is absurd. What makes victims victims is what they went through, not the reason they suffered abuse.

  And this doesn’t even apply to colonization as in this case most of the times the former colony is now a country, and as such you can give compensation to the country and its citizens, no ethnicity required.

  Either way, ethnicity is not needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you also feel cringe about people making such a big deal about ethnicity?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that being a colonizer is not something a government should be. So yes, definitely, such a treaty is bad.

  A government should be treating people as equally as possible. Ethnicity only brings unnecessary division.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you also feel cringe about people making such a big deal about ethnicity?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, american culture making such a big deal about ethnicity even when “positive” did influence a lot.

  I never understood why the N word is racist because of history, but then being black makes it fine to say. It’s still linked to a racist background, but it seems like americans consider that minorities can never be or do anything racist.

  And I mean, in 99% of cases the concept of ethnicity is (or at least is used in a way that is) purely racist. Apart from a few studies on genetic specificities, it has no purpose at all, and definitely no purpose in daily lives and governments.

  What’s weird is that no one with a sane mind would say that a woman saying “women are bitches and shouldn’t be able to work” isn’t misogynistic, but when it comes to racism people are making up exceptions left and right.

  If you focus on ethnicity, chances are you are racist, no matter the justification you put behind it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you consider me a “dry texter”?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just imagine someone like you talking with you. How does it work?

  I can’t even imagine that it would last more than two messages. It’s not a conversation if only one person is talking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seeking help is definitely the way to go as others have pointed out.

  If you don’t care about others feeling hurt, well then just think about it rationally: you probably don’t like getting hurt, so you can understand that they don’t either and trying not to hurt others generally makes the world easier for everyone.

  Now I would also say that aside of that, you should apologize to people you hurt. Not specifically expecting them to forgive you, but because it also logically makes more sense as it might make them feel less bad about your behaviour.

  I would overall try to think about things more rationally than emotionally because it does look like your emotions are your main source of problem right now, and for example thinking that hurting people is going to make them improve is absurd.

  And thinking rationally would let you realize what behaviors are not okay, and let you apologize/warn people about it even if you fail to control yourself. While people would still completely be entitled to distancing themselves from you if your behaviour hurts them, it might at least give them some insight that allows them to get less hurt. And once again, less hurt is generally positive.

  I’m referring to the orion slaves episode (Bound), the cogenitor episode, and impulse, yes. And if people like impulse then they like a low-quality resident evil movie, not star trek.

  Made me realise that I also forget to mention the episode with graphical teen incest scenes, too. And the various episodes with discrimination and sexual assault which are plenty.

  Politics are becoming more and more of the center of a lot of issues, of course it’s going to be everywhere. Just like if a comet is about to hit earth and you complain about all communities talking about it, even if unrelated.

  Your stance is looking a lot like enlightened centrism at this point, and that’s definitely not a good thing.
