“If the capitalists are ok with something it must be bad”
Classic
Same reasoning that leads to people praising authoritarian regimes like China and Russia.
But both are capitalist. So it doesn’t make sense, I guess these people just hate America and the West
Hey can you comment from a different instance? I don’t want a trump community posting here
I mean…
Maybe we can examine issues on their own merits rather than trying to squeeze every round peg into the class struggle square hole?
That’s not what they are saying.
Pretty much the only other time I have seen any transphobia on Lemmy is from a .ml user who called someone a chaser for saying they were married to a femboy. These people don’t actually care about LGBT issues - they are just trolls who use it as a cudgel when it is convenient.
I’ve sadly ran into this kind of thing before.
I’ll never forget the assholes I found on Reddit who tried to say that it’s wrong to push for LGBT Rights especially outside of the US because it was “Pushing Western Values where they don’t belong, like a colonizer!”
These people will come up with any excuse to be dickbutts.
LGBT Rights are based and cool, and anyone who unironically uses the term “Biological Male” is not arguing in good faith
LGBT Rights are based and cool
depends, but in general they are
and anyone who unironically uses the term “Biological Male” is not arguing in good faith
I disagree on this
“biological male” is if anything bad description of reality. A trans woman who has been on hormone therapy for a couple of years is biologically closer to cisgender women than cisgender men. And even more so if they’ve had surgeries. But usually people who use that term don’t care and lump everyone who was assigned male at birth into that category.
I could attribute this term to ignorance because it sounds reasonable, but it’s far too often used to exclude trans women from spaces that other women belong
A lot of ignorance is just a story convincing enough to be memetic, and social truth is about as intelligent as pond scum, because it is that shallow social reaction.
The social truth is also aggressively defended. You’ll have academics explaining how this is an issue based on definitions bounded for utility in the form of heuristics specialized for social communicablility.
Does anyone remember all the annoying kids ranting about social constructs? Most things are social constructs. Just like doors, windows, and the boundable complexities around when a door is a window, or when they are neither.
Fighting that doors can’t be windows is dumb when I have door windows and window doors.
Imtersex people exist. Trans animals exist, and some species are not clearly boundable /definable by that anthropocentric oversimplification.
If only we had cooperative social values for actually understanding the world.
Big yikes. Tankies trying their best to make shoehorn theory true.
Clearly choosing to not include this in order to keep bashing on. Maybe spez is a better option for you?

I went and read the context behind this one. Posting just this comment alone is abit disingenuous. I didnt see any phobias there except maybe the fear of the ruling class in society… Seems that dude was just talking frankly and making observations about what appears to be a contradiction in the original posters logic

That context doesn’t actually change the reading of the message as far as I can see.
I’m not sure why the original poster brought economic politics into it, but the best possible reading of “where are these ‘transphobes’ and why do they need ‘rooting out’” is only neutral, and none of it offsets the weird Olympic sports thing.
So … Yay for context, but nothing disingenuous about this post as far as I can see.
Can someone explain to someone out of the loop what’s transphobic about his post?
Saying that the topic of “caring about transgender and LGBT issues” is promoted by the bourgeois is clearly not intended to indicate they respect those communities concerns.
The “men in women’s sports” thing is just straight up transphobic, sexist misinformation.
It shouldn’t need to be explained, but using “trans” as a label to attack a woman to delegitimize her sporting victory is just a hot mess of issues.This entire train of conversation seems bizarre to me. While I don’t know the intention, the topic is being promoted by companies. Fervently. And having to embezzle “biological” from the sentence doesn’t leave a good feel, either.
This feels more like an ideological war than an factual war.
The “men in women’s sports” thing is just straight up transphobic, sexist misinformation.
Eh, yes and no
The subject is still debated, and there’s no clear scientific consensus, even though the lemmy community will make you believe so
Fuck off conservative troll.
Fuck off ragebaiter?
I mean in just a couple of searches you find out that I’m not wrong
Maybe one day you’ll learn that insulting other people that don’t agree with you isn’t the way
And apparently I’m conservative now. Didn’t know you knew my voting opinions… which you got wrong
Coming into a year old thread to stir shit up is basically the definition of trolling. Doing so in favor of the argument that there’s a plague of men pretending to be women to take over women’s sports is a conservative talking point.
Arguing that there’s scientific uncertainty about how often this is coming up or if the boxer is actually a secret man is… Well I hope you’re trolling, otherwise you’re a bad person.So explain to me how telling you to fuck off is “ragebait”?
Maybe one day you’ll learn that insulting other people that don’t agree with you isn’t the way
Maybe one day you’ll realize that no one cares about your opinion on “the way”.
