Erik Uden :verified: (erik@social.uden.ai)'s status on Friday, 03-Feb-2023 07:25:59 JST Erik Uden :verified: hey uhh @alex in what world would this be okay to say? like wishing someone to commit suicide or saying you’d support joe biden if he’d ask trans people to commit suicide. Like, I get the “AI video of joe biden saying something he wouldn’t say” but it could’ve been anything and given the comment “#mypresident” implying Joe Biden would be their president if he’d be this violently anti-trans don’t you think this is a little too far?
“[after committing suicide] your parents will find you heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment [of a trans person]”
just wondering why you find it okay to boost this

I appreciate you asking instead of jumping to conclusions. However, it’s better to not worry so much about why a person clicked a button on a social media website.

I know the copypasta, just find it weird regardless, especially with the context of “my president” like that is in its essence a supportive statement, so… Tho, thanks for replying!

Alex Gleason (alex@gleasonator.com)'s status on Friday, 03-Feb-2023 08:02:23 JST Alex Gleason @Erik @Bertpro2000 @bot I’ll make one more point. I have nothing left to lose. People didn’t tolerate my nuanced opinions on the subject. Not even J.K. Rowling is unscathed by her totally nuanced views. I saw the video and thought it was funny. Why bother being politically correct? It’s rare a person will even challenge me on it anymore, because the rest of them have just blocked me. I’m fighting against a high tide, and it’s a miracle I’ve come so far. The bottom line is, normies are retarded, and no amount of fellating trans penis or being concerned with peoples’ feelings is going to change that. I would have to castrate myself, get on my knees and beg, and even then I would not likely be accepted back into the mainstream conversation.

These are great words of wisdom.

What you’re saying is the equivalent of “since the police ain’t around no more I can just commit crime”, just because the people that annoyed you and told you to stop now blocked you and left you alone, in my opinion, still means you should think about your actions. Sure, it is just words or posts on the internet, it doesn’t matter that much, I think, I just don’t think of you as a person that just does whatever they want even if no one criticizes them. I think you have a strong moral compass! Like, you wouldn’t just start eating meat simply because no one was watching, or you wouldn’t repost an anti-feminist meme even if there was no one left to challenge you!
And yeah, most likely going “mainstream” will be hard or near impossible with what people think or say about you, but considering people like Keemstar are now respected among even the radical trans community for just a few tweets I think anything is possible.
Even if it is the case that many large instances defederate with the “gleasonverse” so to speak, the Fediverse is like at 8.2 million users. If it will get anywhere near as big as Twitter some day, 8.2m is a tiny and meaningless fraction.
So, I wouldn’t be as pessimistic as you are!
