This community is housed on an instance run by two trans women, focused on the needs of the queer and gender diverse community.

We allowed 196 here because we were promised the community is queer and trans inclusive.

If you're here it's because you're aggressively supportive of trans folk. Not middle of the ground, not "just asking questions".

If your response to that is, "yes, but..." then this isn't the instance for you, and by extension, this isn't the community for you.

tl;dr - Unambiguous support and inclusion, or fuck off somewhere else.

Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to "unambiguous support", as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

I only saw this post because its on all

Maybe you dont want to be on all if this is your stance

Edit. The tone above is not hostile or pithy. I thought there was a dont show this community on all option. I have been informed that it isnt a toggle or opt out feature.

I apologize for any confusion my comment caused.

No, this needs to be on all. Lemmy needs these aggressively supportive posts on all. Let the transphobes see overwhelming support for trans people. If they try to butt in, ban them.

Agreed. The answer isn't for communities like this to isolate. It's to be louder and drown out the bigots.
