Calling trans men females is an act of violence

AGB is getting a nasty little squad of TRAs in it. As long as the moderation stays lax and they're allowed in, the subs days are numbered.

They're like a virus. They'll fester and overrun it until it becomes r/LGBT-lite, or they'll taunt enough people to get reactions, and then Admins will shut it down for hate speech.

Remember, Reddit Admins have confirmed that males are not a minority group, and therefore are not deserving of protection under their rules. They'll just say you're promoting hate under the guise of "bad faith claims of discrimination".

Yeah, I’m starting to notice the same few people popping up on AGB. u/thesilentchief and u/krenyx (both frequent AHS and are against gay men not wanting to participate in intercourse with females).

I’m also beginning to notice that comments on AGB that make the claims that gay men cannot be attracted to females are getting downvoted unusually fast. Like... almost 3 downvotes within 30 seconds of being posted. Almost as if a certain sub are actively brigading AGB and harassing members whose views oppose their own. Pathetic.

I notice the downvotes too when I manage to catch new posts. I do notice the up/downvotes switch though, once a little time has passed, so it seems like many AGB users are on the same side as us. Most are not as vocal about it though.

It's probably just a few users like silentchief and DClawdude - and their alts - but that's really all it takes to start the colonization.

Reddit is not worth the time you spend on it.

When I had a Reddit account, I used to post on AGB a lot. For the last three years of my time on Reddit, I felt like I wasn’t welcome on this subreddit because I stopped being a liberal in 2017 and I was vocal about my ideology.

I’m pleasantly surprised that a lot of people on that sub are pushing back against TRAs. Aside from that, I don’t miss that sub at all. But you know what? I don’t want this sub banned. When that happens, this will be a huge wake up call.

I'm not sure about the extent to which engaging in this kind of debate really helps us. I prefer to focus on policy issues like funneling children into medical transition, male-bodied athletes in female sports, and the importance of consent, things that involve the safeguarding of children, fairness in competition, and respect for individual autonomy.

Descending to their level and getting into it tit for tat doesn't necessarily make our side look good. Douglas Murray and others are right when they say that this kind of wokeness fills a "religion-shaped hole" in the lives of these people, and fighting heretics and blasphemers just makes them feel justified. They want this fight.

There have been trans men on AGB for a long time, and most of them don't cause any trouble. It's the self-appointed White Knights and Saviors that are the real problem, and the universities are churning them out on a daily basis.

Sorry you had to endure this, especially on a forum where gay men should feel especially comfortable.

Are you sure there's a guy on the other end of the exchange? I mean, what man writes:

Calling trans men females is an act of violence.

I know men who pretend to be women think everything is "literally killing" them, but I've never seen a man worry about women who role play.

Just guessing, that poster is a Chase Strangio type. And honesty is not violence. An act of violence is having your healthy breasts sliced off to further your LARP.
