One of you geoguessers figure out where this is!
Erskineville, Sydney, Australia
It was quite easy to find it, she shared where she lived in a PHD and then with reverse image search i found similiar images and selected the ones in Sydney, I have come to the conclusion that it should be in that area.
Brb, going for a drive.
Always weird seeing a meme on truscum 196 but I’m glad there’s variety, even if I don’t agree with y’all’s opinions on which trans people are allowed to be valid
I’m not sure what you’re talking about I support all trans people’s and all other people’s rights
I’m talking about old PugJesus drama. Guy got banned from Blahaj and started hard pushing this community because he didn’t like Blahaj’s rules about all trans people being valid
Was that in relation to that dragon drama?
Yeah, he thought dragongender people aren’t valid
Dragonrider was a troll. Don’t shed any tears for them.
Yeah, I know, and PugJesus fed the troll. He did exactly what drag wanted, he told everyone there were limits to his acceptance. He made the trans community feel unsafe, because some of them genuinely do have genders like drag’s. Ada did the right thing, she banned anyone who thought it was okay to invalidate trans people, the trolling didn’t work on her. But it worked on Pug, he changed his values, and now the community doesn’t trust him to be their ally.

I hope you’re accepting of dogfuckergender too.

Lord.

I’ve never believed in dragons. Not even as a kid! Yes, shocking.
And I’ve long defended the trans community against conservative canards like “I identify as an attack helicopter”; an old canard that Drag commented on positively.
At some point, you, as an individual, apparently, decided conservative arguments, rather than being ridiculous slander, were something to aspire to. I’m sorry that you lost your way.
As far as I’m concerned what people want to call themselves or be called is not of my business and it costs nothing to do it.
I left Blahaj voluntarily. I even acknowledged at the time that I understood the rationale, but I didn’t regard it as suited for me. I wasn’t banned until months after I left, having not posted there nor intended to post there, because I said dragons weren’t real while on another instance entirely.
If that’s the kind of instance administration you want to simp for, be my guest.
This is the fediverse, you’re always on every instance that you’re not banned or defederated from. People on blahaj saw you say xenogenders are invalid, and they didn’t like it. A ban is the way to stop your truscum gatekeeping from being visible to the trans people it affects.
truscum
Truscum is when you don’t believe in mythical creatures, I guess.
Here’s the thing, though. You don’t believe in dragons, okay whatever. But that’s not actually a good reason to say what you said, because dragonrider wasn’t a dragon. Dragonrider’s gender was dragon rider. You had it wrong the entire time. Dragonrider’s partner was the dragon.
I think one of the reasons people didn’t take you seriously is because you didn’t even understand the people you were invalidating. So people perceived you as very low-effort and uninformed, you know?

Yes, a distinction I pointed out at the time, that “dragonfucker” was not a gender because it implied the existence of literal dragons, something I quoted Drag on at several points when people tried to weasel out like you are here.
I never fought with Drag over identity or pronouns. Nor did I say that dragonrider wasn’t a dragon. I said, elsewhere, apart from any argument with Drag, that I would and did use Drag’s pronouns, but that I didn’t believe in dragons, nor in people being mythical creatures - and being in touch with reality, apparently, is a step too far.

Oh, what irony.

Why can’t a gender be defined by a relationship to something that doesn’t exist? To the impossible? Genders are social constructs, and fiction and myth exist in the social. Sex, sure, that needs reality, but why should gender?

Gender is not a social construct, gender labels are social constructs. There’s a difference. What you’re proposing is reducing gender to a favorite word rather than making any attempt to categorize trends in gender identity.
Sex, sure, that needs reality,
If gender doesn’t need that reality, why should sex? If someone identifies as the male sex, are you allowed to think they’re incorrect under any conditions?

I guess not, because that would be tyranny. You’ve convinced me that sex is a social construct as well as gender.

Lord.
Are any words allowed to have meaning, or is language itself tyranny?
