And I wouldn't recommend defending Chris chan who is a horrid person who uses their labels to attack others and to hide from repercussions.

It makes you look like a biggot.

If you think identifying transphobia is to defend Chris, you're the problem.

[–] SeptugenarianSenate@leminal.space 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Please explain why or how this identifying of transphobia is not directly an attempt to defend Chris, IN THIS CONTEXT, to someone who is autistic, or who may even suffer from some obstinent defiant disorder. FYI: Some people aren't hardwired for policing others' verbiage or for having their own language "policed", and I think that you are using your best methods you know, but tone of a written message often comes across in whatever way is most convenient to a given reader, which is what I think might be contributing some to the source of the problem (in this miscommunication). Could you format your statement that went along the lines of "don't mirror transphobic language if you don't want to appear transphobic" in a way that uses the words "should" and "if" in the same sentence? I find often that such a structure can address matters of internal perspective without presenting an imposing presence to the conversation or dialogue.

I didn't even say their name, dude

ok fair enough. i’ve come around to seeing that they way Chippy had initially phrased the gripe had come across as not only transphobic but dementophobic, autism-phobic (didn’t learn this word yet), “predator”-phobic (I think this is a widespread phenomenon for valid seeming reasons), and lolcow(I don’t think I will even look this one up tbh)-phobic as well (by the nature of the implications of choosing to include such descriptors in the first place). I’m just sorry that I had come across as so combative while working to improve my language interpretation skills and conflict avoidance strategies for future discussions with people who have perspectives which seem to not be reconciling with each other on their own.

Seriously thank you anyways for taking the time to keep replying even though you feel that for some reason because I have trouble understanding gender identity that would mean that I also assuredly want to “drill baby drill” (for oil) or enforce the killing of babies or disenfranchisement of mothers at risk of losing their children for medical (or other) complications through the use of the violent rules of backwards laws [or support the use of AI for writing, researching, or creating related tasks, for that matter]. I think it might be a bit worthwhile for each of us to continue opening our minds up to new levels of deficiency or ignorance and to continue working with the tools we are capable of accessing and taking ownership of, to help those around us who seem to be explicitly intending or promoting harmful or otherwise shortsighted actions or beliefs which could hold back the development and rebalancing of the systems of nature we depend on throughout our world as well as the internal drives and doubts which shape our subconscious perspectives or intuitions.

Nobody is defending Chris from what I've seen.

They're merely pointing out that including "trans" in the list of negative traits about Chris makes OP appear transphobic.

[–] Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Hmmm, you're presenting as autophobic, this is problematic.

You just couldn't type that trait out, could you? Too afraid of autism. Sad.

You also excluded "mentally ill" from your list... as if it was not worth a mention. Dementophobia

[–] northface@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Well, I guess I deserve that one. :-)

I focused on trying to calmly explain the problem of lumping negative traits together with other traits, and failed to list all of them. I guess I thought it would be apparent for the readers, but that's on me.
