When politicians talk about how trans people are subhuman or deranged or biblically evil, it contributes to trans people being stigmatized and depressed. As a result of this culture of cruelty, many trans people end up committing suicide.

Where are the corporations firing these people? Just because trans teens sometimes commit suicide quietly behind closed doors does not make the violence somehow less terrible.

      I did that. The top comment was a troll and the thread was feeding the troll and people were reporting each other. Here is the modlog for the top comment.

      Removed Comment: Since this is lemmy nobody can disagree with this opinion or post stats that discredit it without a ban.

      reason: This is trolling. You are welcome to make claims and cite sources. This thread did neither of those. It was just bickering. Here is an example of claims with sources https://lemmy.world/comment/19389340

      Lemmy mods have always been just as quick to ban and remove as reddit mods, if not faster. Although I feel like it varies more widely because of all the different instances.

        I was part of that, an edgy user tried to say that you can’t ban speech because no speech is harmful

        I told him, “degenerates like you belong in camps,” to show how speech is indeed harmful

        They got buttmad and clutched pearls instead of taking a step back and self reflecting, this is all I have left from the exchange:

        Seems like the mods nuked the whole thing because they’re lazy.

          Your comment was in a different thread. I did remove your comment. I didn’t nuke that thread.
