Its been an interesting shit show to watch. Especially the alphabet soup subs going private as a form of protest.

Challenor/Knight got "fired" after the outrage on paper only. The aforementioned queer and trans subs where Challenor and the rest of the pedo pod were active in, they've already been reinstated as mods but under new or existing alt accounts to my understanding. Someone had said that aimeec110, LoverofBubbles, for example are a couple of the ones they're going under or still posting under now after isnottheimposter and nekosune got nuked.

AL, LGBT, the endless number of trans subs love their pedos and men too much to ever truly get rid of them. It makes me miss TL again. Aside of Saidit, I have no other outlet to discuss these sorts of things now. Reddit is such a cesspool.

Anyways, Kettle Corn is today's selection.

Wow so much woman-hating on a lesbian forum by Blueegg in Lesbians

Another heterosexual trying to police and shame lesbians for discussing their experiences, how surprising. Lesbians are in no way obligated to humor your opinions. Heterosexuals have little respect for us or understanding of our lived experiences. Especially those who go around white knighting and concern trolling 'what about the straights??!!' in our communities, which in essence is exactly what you're doing here. Anyways, some of the most blatant and aggressive homophobia I've seen has been, you guessed it, from 'heterosexual feminist allies' who hate our guts. Trying to say that because we're all women we're all sympathetic to one another is a lie. Trying to guilt trip us into being submissive buttercups to heterosexuals is sickening.

Plainly, there is no misogyny, you're twisting the words of the women here to suit your agenda. We tell it as it is. We're tired of having our identity misappropriated by heterosexuals who think its cute and trendy, dissolving the meanings of our words by rampant misuse. We don't exist to coddle the confused or curious. Bisexuals are not lesbians. Women are not men and will never be men. Even if we could somehow engage in toxic masculinity, where would it have been learned from? Oh, that's right. The straights. You all impose it upon us, expose us to it from day one along with all the other unsavory behaviors stemming from your patriarchy that you rigidly enforce.

What we say offends you, because you're straight, not because we're women. There is no solidarity, just whining because it hurt your feelings that posters here aren't holding punches. If you want a safe space to get validated and salivated over for your supposed ally status, go post your beloved feelings on Reddit, at actuallesbians or something like that. They LOVE that kind of karma farming bullshit from the heteros.

This community was not designed for you nor any of your other entitled hetero brethren that like hijacking everything from us. You don't belong here, never will belong here, and you know it. We're not interested in your 'but, but..what about me???' content. Go back to Reddit where they kiss your ass and grovel, because it isn't happening here.

Thank you for your response. That is a great idea, changing my location or further expanding my search radius. Didn't even think of that. That should widen my search results by a bit. I'll give that a try and see how it works.

Thank you. This really made me feel a whole lot better about the situation. I appreciate the advice and insight. I'll take a look and see about a premium subscription to one of the sites or apps and see where that leads me.
