    They also will happily assume my gender, one of their trolls just did while harassing me. Shows that they really don’t care about LGBTQ rights or acceptance.

      .ml is at the very least accepting of some wildly transphobic people. grad is next fucking level though. I’ve seen people literally spreading the right wing talking point that “elites/bourgeoisie” are turning kids trans to divide people.

        That seems very accurate. I actually made a post on those right wing talking points specifically about Lemmy Dev @[email protected] saying them to someone when they asked him about making a Lemmy plugin. It was really bad.
