It seems like Lemmy is all about trans women, I'm genuinely curious though why we don't have more trans men content. I'd say it's maybe on the order of 10:1 posts celebrating trans fem vs trans masc (obviously not a scientific calculation).

I don't have a lot of background in a lot of trans spaces so this is coming from a place of ignorance, but do people in the community have any insight as to why it seems to be this way?

Take this one for instance, it specifically says trans women. Why wouldn't this just say trans people, comrades or something like that? Is there a large descrepancy between numbers of trans fem/masc or something?

Edit. I appreciate what people have said below. Together these responses give a textured albeit 10,000 foot answer to my question, which was what I was looking for. Thanks ya'll.

Ironic, but not wrong.

Radical left 🤣

Isn't the point of protest to not let people forget about things? How easy would it be in the west to not notice, the media certainly isn't keeping up on it. Every time I see one of these I think, that's a braver person than me, and thank fucking god for the Streisand effect. No downvote, but strong disagree.

Stop it, stop it. I already like the guy. Geez. But really, great joke.

Haha, yes only Russia and Iran are doing this. Good guys wouldn't behave like this...Israel definitely isn't doing the same thing to Gaza.. Was propaganda always this lazy or is this a new development?

The word rape doesn't show up in that entire article. Must be some kind of mistake. I wonder why that would happen?

And the US Immediatly stops weapons shipments....the US immediately stops weopons shipments....right?

Does anyone have a link to this actual speech, whenever I hear something this damning, I assume something is wildly out of context.

I mean when we watch decades of wars that kill thousands of American's and MILLIONS of people in their own countries for no reason, maybe we need a little additional justification rather than "fight for your country". Nah! Probably just the fault of the "instant gratification" generations being selfish again.

We see more, and trust less now. Seems like a good first order explanation to me anyway.

Whoopie doing this shit makes me more sad than other dipshit boomers. Growing up she was Guinan, a character on Star Trek TNG. She was unbelievably old and wise and gentle and kind and, honestly, had the best fucking hats. Every time she says something like this, or shat on Bernie, or whatever it is today, it drives home that it's all story telling, and makes it harder to believe in something better.
