Honestly I think we are overthinking this.
How hard is it to just not use hurtful language, surely after one ban one would learn a lesson and not use it again...

:mindblown

I mean, sure, when you got that unfair ban for saying something maybe mentioned as forbidden in passing once in the depths of a hidden thread, if you're obsequious enough in your ban appeal for the bullshit ban you just copped, they might shorten it, but it'll still be there to get cop talked up into a history of histories in the future.

I like the idea of simply **** replacing words. It removes the oxygen from them and lets them wither on the vine. Feels a more organic way than being heavy handed with banhammers where you’ll potentially get reaction and push back which is both unproductive and a waste of admin/mod time.

Quote from: ara, post: 105508165, member: 8107
Yeah, I frankly do not understand why it just isn't done like this. Less work for the mod team, less outbursts from community members who just want drama, less unnecessary bad stuff.

Quote from: FliX (Moderator), post: 105513490, member: 3168
Well, frankly if someone uses e.g. "reee" I most certainly want to ban their ass. I don't want them to be able to hid behind ****

The revised policy would also preclude blood donations from people taking oral PrEP to prevent H.I.V. infection, a restriction the agency said was designed to avoid false-negative results during blood screening.

...This is honestly awful. Why are people who are taking medication to prevent disease being punished for this? Millions of responsible gay men (myself included) will still be ineligible for blood donations due to this.

"If you're taking a medication that can cause an HIV test with your blood to show a false negative, we don't want your blood because we can't effectively HIV screen it" is now awful, unfair punishment.

Guys, I'm starting to think some of those people on Resetera might be fucking morons

No word on how 110 rockets that the Jihad sent to strike Israel ended up exploding on Gaza Strip's land, killing and hurting their own people, including 3 children? Of course not. Keep believing the lies they spread on Twitter.

You've been taught to hate them in fact.
How could I not hate the people who, for all my life and way before it, sending rockets at us, ending up killing civilians, including children, and making people so anxious they are having heart attacks and developing PTSD during operations like this one? The hate is not towards the over 2 million Palestinians living in Gaza, it is toward organizations like Jihad and Hamas using weapons to kill civilians. And if they will continue, this war, this conflict, will never end.

From a personal point of view, I don't think any word, inherently, should be off limits or out of bounds. There are times when using extremely vulgar language can achieve a great effect.

This, so far, should be undeniable.

Does racist language make a person racist? Does homophobic language make a person homophobic? Not necessarily, as much as it might upset some of you to consider this.

A person using homophobic language is not necessarily homophobic, though they oftentimes are unintentionally spreading homophobia.

This seems like a meaningless distinction, but I believe there's a great deal of difference between telling someone they are unintentionally empowering homophobic people vs being a homophobic person. Maybe you don't care, but to the person receiving the message, it matters, trust me.

i was kicked out of a group i think october of last year. i have no recovered from it. i'm not sure i will. it's not the first time i've been kicked out of a group. it's happened a few times. each time i think everything is fine. i try to be self aware. i try to be better. but it still happens. and i make it worse. i was distraught and hurting and i wanted to be seen but i didn't know how to do that in a healthy way. i don't know how to be friends anymore. i don't know how to be close to anyone. i don't trust myself. i still say stupid shit all the time here. it's like i can't help myself, but that's no excuse.
i'll try to be better but i think i should stay away from people. the only way to keep friends is to keep them at a distance
i'm tired and i don't want to be here

I'm also curious what reputable medical studies are inherently transphobic to the extent that whatever presumably peer reviewed and published findings should be ignored because of your feels.
Almost all of them. If it's falsifiable, it's transphobic. Jack Turban gets around this by fabricating studies, using horrible surveys instead of science and then perjury in his testimony so he's about the only non-transphobic doctor out there.

I'm not joking either. Seriously, try to suggest that you want to see if HRT actually does anything measurable with a double-blind study and get ready for the blood on your hands to permanently stain your reputation.

I mean we know off-label usage of puberty blockers dramatically and permanently harms children in a multitude of ways and nobody can even explain what the benefits are supposed to be, that doesn't even get into surgeries, but look at the reaction that putting any form of gatekeeping in place brings about, let alone actually banning the procedures by law. Look at what doctors, even trans ones, who express concerns about this get accused of. Look at what the New York Times (and others like Kiwi Farms member Jesse Singal) has gotten for reporting on this. You think an "ally" doctor is going to try and study this? That's assuming someone would give them the grant in the first place, especially when everyone knows what the results are obviously going to be.

There it is again. ‘Life Saving’

It’s only life saving because if you don’t receive it, you’ll harm yourself. Period. Let’s be clear on that, that’s the threat being made. If I don’t receive this treatment, which depending on the extent, becomes experimental, I’ll hurt myself.


Meanwhile if I tell my doctor I'll kill myself if they don't do "X" I get a "nice" stay in a place where they'll give me the booty juice.

I told my therapist I want to kill myself. Now she makes me pay in advance

Finally a reaction gif I can use without resorting to digital blackface. :ufup No offense to demi or whoever decides things, but it's hard not to when you have to scroll past that big long part of black ones :gurl, and they're all way better. :lawd maybe there is something to the whole "whites stole rock music" but what am I supposed to do about it :mindblown it's not my fault whitey is so...:kobeyuck

Once you get someone to work with you they will just follow the steps and focus on following the steps not the actual goal.

The average person is dumber than you think. And they will call smart people (like me) stupid because they don't understand our genius.

The amount of word salads Kyuuji and Crossing Eden spewing out to justify staying on Twitter is something else. If it can be held against Chris Pratt for attending a certain church, then it is certainly fine holding staying on Twitter against someone who's supposedly pro-LGBT and anti-fascist, especially when there are alternatives to Twitter.

Then they're short sighted, the only way they'll get any work is that we stop fascism now and roll back the fascists goal of AI eliminating human created art. And stopping fascism now means stopping Elon. Which means posting on Twitter or something I have to admit I didn't actually read all that shit like I normally do.

If someone's livelihood depends on Twitter, then I understand them staying on. But what I don't understand are terminally online slackervists like Kyuuji who don't seemingly depend on Twitter to pay the bills yet argue fiercely that her and her friends sticking on Twitter is totally fine and not at all hypocritical or helps supposed super fascist Elon, the man they supposedly hate only second to TERF Bitch Joanne.

Saying that she’s not in the wrong for using it but others have blood on their hands is stupid as well.

We don’t. That doesn’t mean outright ignoring “actually people should deplatform themselves otherwise they’re helping fascism regardless of context” shouldn’t be called out as it’s a blatant insult and we shouldn’t encourage performative moral grandstanding that’s seemingly only happening for the sake of it.
Honestly, this just sounds to me like the same shit people try to say in Rowling, kanye, etc topics to feel better about themselves. I know you aren’t personally like that but based on what I remember from a lot of posters here over the years, it’s odd to hear “moral grandstanding” used so frequently in this context. In general, it feels like whoever you are, it’s typically moral grandstanding when it applies to something someone isn’t ready to give up.

I get it though, no one likes having it pointed out to them that they’re possibly supporting something unsavory. I just never expected all the bullshit excuses here of all places. Really though, I’ll just move it along as it’s really a pointless discussion. You don’t really need all that high a horse to come to a conclusion regarding what twitter is currently about and what the platform supports. Folks are going to have their opinions one way or the other on these matters regardless of what I think though, best of luck with whatever goes on there.

No response from Crossing Eden yet which isn't too surprising because his head just exploded after being compared to Kanye and Harry Potter Fans

[referring to Caraballo]If people are gonna moral grandstand about how this woman is in the wrong for making this tweet and has "blood on her hands" by simply using the app, i'm gonna need receipts about what exactly the people stating such things have done besides the surface level notion of allyship. Y'all not even offering alternatives in the first place while you pat yourself in the back for not using a social media website.


No, no, no, that's not how this shit works, idiot.  You invoke words like "fascism" and "neonazi" to describe the owner of the app, then just acquiesce to using it because you need it for your business, guess what?  You're a nazi and fascist sympathizer.  The end.  It really is that simple.


You want nuance on a forum that doesn't allow you to say the words of the title of a children's game?  Are you joking?  Your ethics are just "whatever benefits ME at the given moment", you dipshit.

are you interested in discussion or just being self-righteous

imagine unironically saying this on resetera. discussion is not allowed on Ree if you aren't on the prominent members' side in the first place, they would have lambasted him even if he's made a 6 paragraph post.

Quote from: Kyuuji
Just this past week I have been asking trans people about their experiences of progesterone and when (or even if) one should add it to their healthcare routine. There is no consistent scientific literature on it, there is very little literature on trans healthcare in general. Studies that do exist are frequently outdated, flawed in methodology or reflect a transphobic bias. This is another aspect of being trans that is buttressed by community and shared understanding.
Speak of the devil...

It seems like you keep asking until you find the answer you want.

So thankful for bluesky giving me the out I needed to completely eject myself from that platform and, no, I don't need a bunch of replies doomposting about it. Let me be happy that I'm off twitter and somewhere I can be myself.

Even just following the wrong person is enough for them to label you a Nazi sympathizer. But openly and willingly supporting Twitter owned by supposed super fascist Nazi Elon Musk by using it doesn't count because...reasons? :what :confused

“Progesterone is critical for biological women for their health, so trans women deserve it!”

What a scientific conclusion. One would logically ask the effects of progesterone on a non-biological woman, but that would be bigoted, wouldn’t it?

Messy trying to not look like a total distinguished mentally-challenged fellow after the ill advised thread early:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/NOT-AN-IDIOT-FORGET-EVERYTHING.718576/

Quote from: MentalHealthExpert
My takeaway as before and now, is about moderation of expectations and employ critical thinking skills rather than act based on extreme emotional reactions.

Thank you, Messy. Very cool.
