    On these very forums, we’re not allowed to say we think trans women aren’t the same as actual women.

    There’s no shame in mentioning this fact. I’m also not a right-winger. Good job proving my point that we’re either with you or against you and you’re trying to control what people think through censorship.

      If we have rules against saying things like that which hurt some community members I think it’s okay for mods to remove them. If people want to say that sort of thing they can create their own instances and/or communities which those people negatively affected can avoid there would be nobody to remove them. That’s one of the beauties of Lemmy.

      Also if somebody is really of that opinion then maybe they should rethink their definition of “actual women”.

        They don’t have a definition of “actual women,” because every one they can give has to come with massive “exception to the rule” issues.
