EDIT: no, I don't sympathize with nazis (neither I sympathize with those who call everyone nazi when they're losing an argument ;)

Commienazi troll instances (hexbear, lemmygrad) should be blocked by the default. Their users are unhinged and spend time harassing people.
What is Nazi about hexbear? Seriously just making up stuff now
I said commienazi, hexbear falls under the commie part. You're just too annoying. You don't have an off switch, you declared yourself the Lemmy speech police. You're the loser nerd hall monitor type. You're also fragile and can't bear any disagreement. It's like, a person disagrees on a leftist issue like do non binary genders exist (a matter of sociological theory) and should underaged people be given puberty blockers (a matter so controversial some countries are reviewing the practice) you'll swoop in and declare them Nazis who need to die immediately.
This is why there are many who think your entire instance is an elaborate troll run from some bizarre Discord server, you all fit the annoying blue-haired leftist stereotype too exactly.
Go ahead and tell all the non binary people that they actually don't exist, it's just all sociological. Is this the new "it's all in your head" stuff they used to tell gay kids back in the day?
Not even going to get started on the transphobia in your comment, trans kids shouldn't get the medical treatment now because some countries are banning it. Great logic, it's not like countries have ever prescribed incorrect medical treatment to LGBT people before. Alan Turing? Who's that again?
What the hell is wrong with artificial hair colours? I'd never dye my hair an unnatural colour myself, but it's a cool look on some people. What is the "blue haired leftist stereotype?" Is it some right wing American meme?
Of course it's all sociopsychological. It's an identity. Like nationality and ethnicity it's a matter of social practice, not biology or genetics. As such it's very much in the realm of things which are debatable. Are are you claiming otherwise?
And? How does that make non-binary gender any less real? Which is what you implied with your original comment, by asking if it exists or not.
Many things are matters of social practice, doesn't make them any less real.
It's real insofar as there are people who subscribe to the idea and practice it. In the same way that Christianity or Wicca are real. The debate isn't about this.
But because it is real in this way, it's also real that there are people who don't believe than one can be non-binary. There is more than one schema for gender currently in Western society, and these schemas are in competition for instance the traditional binary vs various different non-binary conceptions vs so-called "truscum" vs xenogender...
We know that gender itself as a matter of social practice (the work of second-wave feminists proves this definitively) so therefore all gender schemas are subject to social debate.
Expect, and this is where the crux is, that some (but not all) trans and non-binary activists are now claiming that gender identity is innate (while gender remains a social construct) and that in fact it is sex which is arbitrary and that in fact it takes a whole team of medical personnel to ascertain sex (the so-called "assigned at birth" model).
The broader point I am making is that because current Western gender schemas are in such flux, you can't simply say that someone is Nazi just because they subscribe to a different schema than you do.
So if someone holds the view that they don't believe it's possible for a person to be a Christian even though there's millions of people that call themselves Christian do you think that means the question of whether or not there are people that are Christian is up for debate? That's insane.
You're right. It's about whether nonbinary people and trans people in general deserve rights and social validation. Which they do. End of discussion.
:::spoiler Personally, I'm of the opinion that men don't exist. All "men" are just NBs doing it for attention.
(apologies to trans men for this bit)
Boy calling us nazis to saying non binary people just have a mental illness in one fucking comment.
You libs really fucking love telling on yourself.
Never said that non binary people are mentally ill. But this kind of uncharitable reading is common with your hexbear assholes and reason enough for the rest of Lemmy to defederate from you.
Also, oh no -- I'm a "lib." So I'm the same thing that 99.99999999% of Western people are. How horrible, how damning, however shall I live with myself now that some shut-in 22-year-old called me a lib. Get a grip.
You literally called us Nazis in your top level comment you fucking moron.
I didn't realize we'd gone through a time portal to 2015 lmao
Although I suppose that's less important right now than all the beeping coming from this when you talk about nonbinary people
Way to prove my point. Yes, you found me out I am a huge Nazi. Now what? What exactly will you do?
He literally baited you to respond exactly as you did. While I'm not a communist, that was smart and you are dumb to not have seen that...
Yeah, they really showed that we will call someone a Nazi after they come out of the gate equating us to Nazis and then start saying transphobic shit and going off about blue-haired SJWs, we're so owned by this, somehow.
But I am a Nazi, here I am at my computer just Nazying away.
Hopefully defed from your instance
From zero to transphobia in two posts! This looks like a new world record from @[email protected]! The crowd is going wild. Of course, they did get some heat into their bigotry tyres during their warmup lap where they aced the Holocaust trivilization coner, which put them on a perfect line to hug the apex of transphobe's chicaine and finished with the classic blue haired leftist move.
