    I can see excising for hate speech. And for trolling. But you do so for a downvote? Or did I misunderstand?

    E: cosecantphi explained what’s going on. I understand now.

      It’s not “just a downvote” when it’s clear they are targeting any and all posts on the comm specifically for and by trans people. It’d be absolutely ridiculous to think this is just a coincidence where they happened to find fault in literally all of those posts for reasons other than transphobia.

        Yeah. I read your longer comment from earlier and it all makes perfect sense now. Sorry for sounding daft. I just genuinely didn’t understand the extent. Sorry this is happening to you peeps :(((

            That’s pretty!

            I had a friend named Kira. She wasn’t trans, though, so probably not you. She was cool. I miss her.

            I adjusted from ‘not understanding’ to ‘understanding’. I guess, I did do it without any preconceived notions and did it with an open mind. I mean, and I don’t mean to sound like “that person”, but, if I’m not mistaken, you’re a human and deserve the same type and level of respect as the next human.

      We’ve been through this song and dance before, and know what we’re doing. Read further through this post and you’ll find a link I posted to a 3 year old thread detailing same/similar circumstances.

      I agree with you on principle, you can’t change what you can’t control, but here we can control, and we don’t need to accept others’ slights

          You can also fix stupid, but they have to want to change. If it’s someone drive-by-downvoting trans stuff, chances are they don’t want to change.

            I would imagine that stupid can’t be fixed, because they’d be too stupid to be fixed. Those that can be fixed, wouldn’t be stupid, but, instead, lost or confused. That’s my take, anyway. Maybe I’m wrong.

                That’s true. If they want to change, and are willing to put in the work, they would be able to change. You have a nice view on the world, it seems, and I dig it.
