So when they see “death to the USA”, and they are… you know, in the USA, they often nope right out

I say death to america all the time and I live here

i agree, can’t stand them either and it’s only been getting worse

sorry that happened to you either way.

if you ever change your mind feel free to let me know

the left version of maga are the democrat die hards.

never met a war they didn’t support when it was team blue doing it.

i feel like it’s usually the opposite. some people just really insist on getting upset about anyone on .ml

oh it was intentional ALTahaha

i don’t think i’m particularly prudish. i’ll routinely go out to clubs and do demos with like nothing on, but that’s in a setting where it’s expected. i also appreciate not having sex shoehorned into everything i watch or read.

like yeah it’s a facet of existence, but it’s not everything. i’d rather have it be meaningful and intentional instead of everywhere.

I do occasionally get some weird vibes outside of /traaa on there, though so far nothing like what you’ve run into. If you have any names I can look into this, I have mod privileges there and it could help me look out for sus stuff in the future.

Part of why I was interested in helping out there is because their megathreads are actually very active and I saw that whenever stuff like /tttt/ brainwormed shit came up there were lots of posters with actually good views on gender constructs chiming in to combat/explain unhealthy gender expectations.

To be clear I don’t think I said agender pronouns in my last reply, that would bother me too- my point was that in the options available for that (mandatory) slot there are agender options - none/use name is actually the default option for all users (I made an account so I could poach emoji links).

I like that it’s more isolated from the rest of lemmy, the vibe is just different in those comms and I have to imagine it’s related to not constantly having people rolling up to sealion about reactionary/anticommunist shit. I do still like to interact with the rest of lemmy at the same time, which is why I’m pretty happy on .ml.

I do hope the support for community/server specific flairs gets some traction, it seems like it would actually have a pretty broad appeal and could be used for pronouns in addition to other things.

The display names option does limit your actual name length combined with pronouns, hexbear it’s a separate field. I do appreciate the arguments against having it mandatory/integrated into the main lemmy. Here’s the github post about it, the lemmy.ml admins agree with your line.

That said, on hexbear I see plenty of people keep none/use name and they’ve also got specifically agender ones like null/void, undecided, any.
