196

Based.

Thank you for creating a safe space. I'm an ally to the LGBTQ+ community and am happy there's a space not for "everyone", but for those willing to accept trans folk and silence those against them (while having funny posts on it as well).

As an Asexual Gender-Fluid person with trans friends, I fully support this

I'm here because 196 shows up on my feed and I really enjoy the memes.
I also have absolutely no problem with trans individuals or really any lifestyle anyone wants to live that isn't hurting anyone else.
That said, was there an incident recently on here that spurred the creation of this post? Did something go down?
Edit: Changed "bothering" to "hurting" because I frankly don't give a fuck about the feelings of the type of people that are "bothered" by LGBT+.

Joining most of the people here in saying, "Huh, what community?" I'm not against trans people, and I despise bigots, but I'm not a part of your community either.

To be honest I don't care to be part of any federated community that defines itself by what it won't tolerate, grow up and use the block feature.

Damn straight. Us queers need to stand together and there can be no god damn LGBTQ+ without the flippin T.

Heck yeah! Fuck Transphobia!

I loved the original 196 and how supportive it was for LGBTQ+ people. Also because it was hilarious. Keep rockin

Just read the post that started this all. I thought that hating a person for having a sexual preference that doesn't agree with you, it's exactly what the queer community was fighting against. Well you do you. Plus demanding aggressive support only is in really poor taste. Great job making a meme thread into political crap. Yes, let's burn down everything because I don't agree with a part of it.

Thank God. THAT post earlier was shocking me.

Trans rights are human rights. Trans people's existence doesn't get to be dictated on other's whims, or have their validity be aproved by other's checklists. Trans people get to live and be respected. Dismissing someone's right to live that literally is just trying to exist peacfully just because you don't feel like treating them as a human being says everything. I want to have trans people feel safe in their environments,whichever that is (online or irl), and we can't achieve that unless we're vocal, straightfoward and fierce in our activism for trans rights. Because trans rights are human rights. Thank you for being here and being a part of this community.

TRANS RIGHTS!!! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

Trans rights!

I'm more of a casual user so I haven't seen the transphobia here but fuck transphobes and you should all have a place to feel safe.

TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS

I'm here because this showed up in all.

I don't "aggressively support" squat. I do stand up for life, liberty,and the pursuit of happiness. Someone being trans does not affect anyone's life, liberty, or pursuit of happiness until they get aggressive.

Oh cool, I was getting kind of uncomfortable with how things were going, this sounds just right.

Trans rights! Y'all deserve aggressive support!

You have my full support.
As a.. whatever the hell I am.. I support everyone to be who they want to be. No exceptions.

As far as I know the original subreddit this com came from was very trans, to the point where I, as a cis straight ally, was nervous that I was somehow not supposed to be in it. And I'm pretty sure I wasn't the only one.

So I'm witchu

I must have good filters or something, because I don't think I've noticed any TP / TERFing in here. Sad.

(of course i follow from a mastodon account so i probably miss a lot of stuff)

Just wondering what does 196 means anyway? Clueless lemmy user here.

Ps I'm ally of LGBTQ2S+.
