I woke to discover this, and immediately defederated it. I don't need that transphobia factory in our timelines
Ok but not everything revolves around trans people's issues. Can we be glad for a positive development for once, or will we remove everything that does not 100% agree with our view of the world from the fediverse?
Defederating isn't irrational, it's not a matter of personal beliefs it's a matter of actual people's lives and being allowed to express themselves. Going against that is inhumane and anyone that does it should be held accountable for their actions. Despite that, mainstream attention direcred towards the fediverse is a positive advancement.
