I'm honestly surprised the de trans sub hasn't been banned yet on reddit for going against the narrative.I did hear that they tried once with it but then it was brought back.

They haven't broken any "rules" yet. And reddit can't be too heavy handed with that or else they risk the Streisand effect as well as just general user loss.

In my circles reddit has essentially become a synonym for retard and is considered only useful for a laugh at the crazies or trolling. I suspect a good portion of the content that hits the main subs is fictional now.

Once TiA got banned I never returned to Reddit. The teacher sub I used to frequent became full of teachers who were “queer” and “autistic” and had “adhd”, and talked about it endlessly (that and whether they could wear X to school and get away with it, and then there were the ones admitting to committing some serious faux pas and acting like you killed their cat when you pointed out their mistake and told them the steps to correct it, serious child safeguarding errors at times).

Most of reddit went that way for me. It's largely just people whining about bullshit.

Used to have some fun giving the common sense answer to people's questions and laugh at them getting offended but reddit really cracked down hard on that. It's like "Help my wife is mad at me because I told her to eat shit how can I convince her I'm right." Like dude just don't tell your wife to eat shit you idiot, easy.

Reddit will ban the sub eventually. Like how they waited a few years before banning TiA.

They did ban it once in July 2020 for "promoting hate".

Detrans advocates noticed immediately and kicked up a fuss on Twitter, and within a few hours, it was unbanned.

Trans activists face discrimination, many see themselves in a life-or-death civil rights struggle.

The entire "trans community" is an affront to genuine civil-rights efforts, which were and are based on non-discrimination due to "immutable characteristics".

People's beliefs, lifestyle choices and behaviors do not rise to the level of "immutable" used to confer 'protected-class' status because they're all acquired, not inherent.

And yes, I've seen the sleazy Wikipedia version adding perceived to the definition of "immutable [characteristic]".

"Perceiving" something that objectively doesn't exist is called a delusion. This crosses into the "Science" of Psychiatry where 'bodies of experts' allow activists to stampede them into voting "disorders" into and out of existence.

Ah yes but you see, trans-people claim that being trans is an immutable characteristic, retroactively immutable. They always were the gender they now claim to be even before they knew it themselves you see. It's funny how someone who is biologically male acts male their whole life and is male actually was a woman the whole time just cause.

the funniest argument against detrans is "they're only 0.1% of the population and were probably pressured by their parents for social clout!"

I mean, c'mon man

pressured by parents for social clout

Like how a lot of woke parents pressure their own children to become trans for social clout?

well yeah that's the whole nut of the matter--their complete unselfawareness

You give them too much benefit of the doubt, they are fully aware of their projection.

Why would you want to go back from being who we tell you that you are on the inside? are you a kkkonservative nazi? why do you hate yourself? why do you not want the freedom to let the cult tell you how to be?. It baffles me. After all studies have shown that 97% of people are happier after transitioning. So you must be really mentally ill to purposley go against the science and make yourself one of the 3% of people who are unhappy. so please... please help us secure the exsistance of the queer race and a future for trans babies and take your meds. just take your estradiol or testosterone. Just doit... Doit. DOIT! you fucking cissy dont participate in the literal genocide of brave and stunning members of marginalized communities. DO WHAT WE FUCKING TELL YOU AND MUTILATE YOUR GENITALS AND SUCK DOWN HORMONES!.

Certainly doesn't help that a number of them get harassed by "journalists" like that creep "Dawn" Ennis.
