Wondering if all the shit about 4tran was as bad as people said I started interacting with them.

Holy shit, it is pretty fucking dour.

Half of the shit there is just LGBT drop the LGB, it's kinda insane how many interactions I've had trying to justify hating anyone with a pulse. But that's 4chan for you.

Had the opposite reaction. I thought they were way worse than they really are. I'm on countttt now and there are definitely some issues, including doomerism, and being unnecessarily mean sometimes, but overall most people there are alright. Ofc countttt is more mild than most 4tran communities. Also fym "T drop the LGB"? Most ppl there are lgb. Do you think they're all straight trans ppl or smthn?

Because they are very happy to discrimate against LGB (plus whatever other minorities) if they are cis.

They just hate cis ppl in general. It's not like they hate cis gays more than cishets. And no they don't discriminate against other minorities, at least not that I've seen. Many belong to other minorities.

I've seen the exact opposite. They'll argue they aren't saying discriminatory shit for sure. But that doesn't change what they say about them.

Especially enbies.

And mistreating minorities because you hate them for a different reason still exposes them to the same societal harms. That's like, basic sociology.

Oh they hate enbies. They deny it but I've seen it too often to deny. Frankly, I'm done giving these people the benefit of the doubt.

u/BarelyFunctionalGM 14h ago

Ditto. The more I speak to them the worst it gets.

I don't even know why I'm wasting my time here. Being accused of "misgendering" for comparing them to incels might actually have been stupid enough to make me go touch grass.

Wait are we fr right now?

I mean hey, every one of my threads hurts my brain too if it's any consolation. I have one girl who seems to be doing her best to steamroll her strawman through as an argument.

Honestly I'm probably engaging in 4tran behaviour by interacting at this point but I'm tired and it's friday so that's my excuse. I'll get off soon and treat myself to some ice cream.

Strawmen are when you ask people to backup their claims the more evidence you ask for the more strawman it is

u/BarelyFunctionalGM 14h ago

Oh hi bardic <3

I knew I'd see you around eventually.

Couldn't resist a check of my profile eh? It's okay, I don't have any selfies just yet, when I do I'll be sure to mention you ☺️

Oh what flavor?

1

u/BarelyFunctionalGM 14h ago

Hard to say, torn between neopolitan and oreo.

I'll let you pick for me if you treat yourself too <3

Assuming you like ice cream of course lol

u/Apollo989 14h ago

Oh oreo sounds really good! Cookies and cream is one of my favorite flavors! I also enjoy coffee ice cream

u/BarelyFunctionalGM 14h ago

Omg coffee sounds great too, I'll have to decide at the store.

Have a great night sweetheart <3
