You... Realize you guys aren't the only group attacking a minority group to be removed from these spaces, right?

I feel like you don’t understand the bans at all. R/Truelesbians, a space that existed for females exclusively attracted to other females, was banned. R/PCOS and other women’s health subs were banned or had their moderation changed if they weren’t seen as sufficiently inclusive even though only one group of people has to deal with these issues. R/GCDebatesQT was a trans inclusive place, but we were banned for wrongthink even after we went private and invite only. Reddit has made it super clear they hate women. Men’s health subs, gay male subs, and men’s porn subs are allowed to have boundaries, but women’s are not. Rape porn subs and subs about degrading women are allowed to stay up. Porn subs are even allowed to exclude transwomen from women for their allowed content. Reddit does not support women having boundaries or even trans people who don’t agree with their ideology.

I never went on truelesbians for what I assume are obvious reasons, but glancing at an archive of it, it's literally just another r/gc. Every post in the archive is just 'trans bad' or 'im losing my friends cause I don't like trans people'.

Porn subs are even allowed to exclude transwomen from women for their allowed content.

Guess we have all the proof we need that reddit is anti trans, ladies and gentlemen, we got em. 😎

I'm not gonna deny that large corporations are anti women, because they objectively are, but there's a difference between being banned for just being women and being banned for being an easy to target hate group. r/gc and it's adjacent subs were banned, that included spaces that don't literally put in the title "we hate trans people".

I don't even know why I'm bothering arguing this it wasn't even a hill I care about it was just a throwaway line pointing out how obscure this sub is and how stupid it would be to run out the 4 or 5 trans people here because someone is too upset at trans people existing to say 'they'.

Edit: also it's super off-topic and I won't ever change anyone's mind so I'm not gonna continue this here...

I guess this is supposed to be cute, but it just oozes misogyny to me. You are literally mocking us. This isn’t that difficult. For Reddit, men (the primary audience for porn subs) are allowed to have boundaries and women are not. It has nothing to do with Reddit being a large corporation and everything to do with misogyny that has been a feature of that platform from the beginning. Women having boundaries is not hate.

I don't know if cute is the word I'd use, but again, off topic and irrelevant.
