Exploding Heads - Help hold the ruling class accountable

As far as I see that instance is a far-right cess pool. Everything I’ve got from that instance were low-quality transphobic “news articles”.

    Please explain how they differ?

    Edit (2): TL;DR (and the first thought I had which then escaped me when I went to type my original reply but has now returned): The Venn diagram of Nazis and transphobes has massive overlap, but even those that don’t fit in both are bad and harmful in their own right, so who are you really defending here?

    And before you try
    “Nazism wasn’t about transphobia”:

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-forgotten-history-of-the-worlds-first-trans-clinic/

    or

    “Transphobes today have nothing to do with Nazism”:

    https://socialism.com/fso-article/posie-parker-in-australia-terfs-nazis-and-the-fight-for-trans-liberation/

    Edit (1) because sent too soon:
    Not wanting to admit it to themselves and/or being wilfully ignorant in defence of their cognitive dissonance, nor you personally not liking it, doesn’t make transphobes any less supporters of what is without a doubt a Nazi (if not Nazi inspired, which doesn’t make it better) ideology, attitude, and behaviour.

      Nazis, they are defending Nazis and want to pretend they are not.

        And on a completely unrelated note - I was only able to see your reply by going to your profile overview (love the render btw!), OP seems to have vanished, even under the comments tab on each of our profiles the ones made here are gone. Is this what happens here when a post gets removed?
        E:never mind, that’s my confusion.

        That’s why when you ask them to clarify they go quiet, because they know that means saying the quiet part out loud because, as you say, there is only one conclusion.

          That Sartre quote again but with the relevant bit in bold:

          “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
