On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)
How can you call “the transgender topic” at all “controversial”? You either support and protect minorities or you don’t.
Also, my man db0 is just the goat.How can you call “the transgender topic” at all “controversial”?
🤯
What universe are you living in where everyone agrees and has the same opinions about transgender people? It’s more or less the definition of a controversial topic.
The world of morality purity testing. According to the democrats or the “left” in america right now, if you don’t pass the test at all times you are scum and should be banned and silenced. I’m just amazed so many people apparently have made not a single mistake in their lives.
I’ll give a good example, I think. Pete Hegseth is bad at his job and says controversial things, and yet all I hear about him is how much he likes drinking. You don’t need the purity test to dislike the guy, and yet its the first choice anyways.
My rights are not a controversy. You’re just a bigot.
they are not bigot, they just dont live in an echo chamber.
whether you like it or not, there’s lots people not thinking like you. I’m not one of them, just to clarify before I suddenly become a bigot, but people like that do exist, in masses
If you “have an opinion about transgender people” that involves taking away their rights, or putting them in harms way and that prioritises the needs of everyone else first, and the needs of trans people last, if at all, then you have a bigoted opinion.
and where exactly was that my opinion? it is not an opinion, that such people exist. that is a sad and hard fact.
but sure, kill the messenger, call me a bigot for pointing out reality.
I know its a huge job but will Blahaj ever consider migrating to PieFed over this (presumably when the tooling ia ready)?
Yep, it’s absolutely something we’d consider once database migration becomes possible
A lot of people thought that blacks shouldn’t be allowed to go to school.
yes, and what does it matter here? that’s another example of a controversial thing
Technically, they are controversial. There are people who support your right to live and there are people who dont support it
If half of humans thought water was dangerous, drinking water would be a controversial topic
db0 trying not to be based challenge:
Impossible.
I mean they still left the begging thread up with the “separate the art from the artist” message, and let Nutomic intentionally mislead users about “developer salaries” not going to support .ml. If they really wanted to be based they would have banned Nutomic for being a greedy little pig boy and told people to donate to Piefed.

That was me [that crossposted; just thought mander had a good idea :)] 😅 Sorry.
with the “separate the art from the artist” message
That’s db0’s fault to bear :p He actually walked it back later, seeing how nutomic refused to back down his beliefs.

Good idea–I’d love to do that. I’ve been swaying all admins on the team to (in a year or two??) maybe switch to piefed. I’ve also helped a bit with piefed development directly; even helping with some migration tool rimu/AP are interested in. Hopefully we can in the future :D
Honestly, seeing how much of a shitshow that thread was; i think i’m going to delete it. I’ll wait for it to cool down in some days, and make a fundraiser post for rimu.
Unless Piefed gets a database import ability to port Existing Lemmy databases to that I don’t think Switching to it would be such a great idea. It would mean starting our instance from scratch and losing everything we have content, user registrations, communities. If Sublinks hadn’t stalled it could be a promising alternative, and maybe will be in the future, since it’s built around that whole concept of database and API compatibility.
this piece of shit will never get any money from me
Do you do this for every product in the supermarket
Bro where you been? Nestle is the classic example, tesla is a newer one, proton too, chic fil a, etc.
Yeah. People do also boycott stuff. What the fuck does he mean lmao.
ProtonMail was a huge disappointment. I was a paying customer.
But I’m happy so far with Tuta.
This is really shitty but it doesn’t surprise me at all. He’s trying to make a shift because he doesn’t want to face repercussions of being labeled transphobic, possibly being widely banned and ostracized.
It’s very different when someone actually realizes they were wrong and want to change and be better. Nutomic isn’t doing that here, he just wants people to give donations and to avoid fallout from him letting his opinions slip publicly.
The fact that you think this is worthy of posting in this community is bizarre. It’s hard for me to imagine a more agreeable and reasonable statement.
A lot of users on hexbear and lemmygrad, along with some users on .ml, have extreme political positions that are worth documenting in this community. But I don’t think this post fits the criteria at all. In general, I don’t think Nutomic has ever really expressed any tankie opinions, so I don’t understand why people continue to persecute him while using the software that he helped build.
If you have a problem with lemmy.ml as a server that’s one thing, but it’s pretty trashy to harass the volunteer developer of a FOSS platform that you use for free. How about finding someone else to pick on, there’s plenty of worse people out there.
It doesn’t quite fit, true, but Nutomic is a tankie. He’s not as mask-off as the other lemmy developers, but he’s still a tankie, transphobic and is okay with tankie extremism.
Also consider this a warning: no apologia – No defending tankies.
If he is a tankie, then post the evidence. If he is transphobic, post the evidence.
I don’t agree with either of those assertions. To me, this post borders on harassment.
Don’t care what you think. Evidently, you’re in the wrong with everyone disagreeing with you. Take the hint and step down.
I’ve given you a warning, drop the topic.
Evidently, you’re in the wrong with everyone disagreeing with you.
Flawless logic.
Is it allowed for people to express disagreement on this community or does everyone always have to agree with you?
I hold admins to a much higher standard. You don’t look good right now, and it’ll be better if you just drop the topic.
A) There’s literally a pinned post in this comm that this post is, essentially, a sequel too.
B.1) One of the things they always say on the Tankie Triad is that their instance(s) are trans safe spaces, how can .ml be a trans safe space with a literal transphobe as main admin?
B.2) There’s no place in a just world for transphobia
I don’t see how that’s transphobic tbh
Then you should fucking follow your leader you nazi piece of shit
Tell us you’re a terf without saying you hate trans people.
Transphobic bigotry means you shouldn’t be breathing, you piece of shit. Fuck you.
