OK, I pulled out a computer for you so I could see the rules side by side with my post because my mobile client doesn't allow it.

Rule 1: Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here.

OP came in swinging hot, maybe a little toxic, but there are valid points behind the hot words.

However, OP has shown that they are able to accept other viewpoints from valid arguments (https://lemmy.ca/post/48960508/18080134). So I would argue this is borderline.

I have to say, I have no idea what sealioning is though.

Rule 5: This is not a support community.

It is not a place for ‘how do I?’, type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

This isn't a "How do I". This is an open ended attempt (with some frustration) to try to under why members of the community do certain things.

That's my view anyway. What's yours?

You said in your edit: Men are relevant and important to addressing women’s issues.

That's it.

And per merriam webster:

prejudice or discrimination based on sex Source: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sexism

Your statement in and itself, shows prejudice based on sex.

A few points:

  1. It could be a mistake, but adding context without labeling it as an addition or an edit changes the view of the discourse that has already been made

  2. You once again flipped the discriminatory group and the group discriminatory against which is at best a misunderstanding and at worse malicious

  3. You are STILL wrong and are mansplaining. You don’t need to insert yourself into women’s discourse. You are literally the type of person women’s only spaces are built to protect against. While yes, help from those who are not discriminated against definitely help the discriminated, that help comes in listening to what they have to say and support. Your expressed viewpoint is more or less: “I am very important and you should hear what I have to say because it is helpful”. You are, intentionally or not, giving subtle hints that you are better than women and that’s why you should be allowed to force your way into their discourse. In this day and age, we call that sexism.

Maybe that’s not your intention, but boy your writing is full of red flags

I know you edited your post, which still has things I think are wrong, but OP is absolutely correct based on your initial post… JS

This is a false equivalency, my dude. There are definitely good reasons for people who generally face systemic discrimination (ie. Women, black people) to have separate communities from those they face discrimination from (men, white people). It’s not like they are trying to divorce themselves from society at large.

Do you have examples of women only communities? Because I have probably inadvertently done so. Admittedly, I probably also haven’t read the rules as my mobile client makes that stuff kind of hidden.

I love the posts that come out witchesvspatriachy for example. That’s definitely female dominated, but I didn’t read the rules because, well, they didn’t show up in the all feed, so I don’t know if I shouldn’t post.

I also think it’s good to get some outside opinion, occasionally, but female spaces need to remain female dominated for good reason.

/me shrugs. Sorry if I’ve been the point of your annoyance

I guess I need to expand my definition of meme

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago (7 children)

Meme? Isn’t this a literal page out of the book lol

Unfortunately, I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole and am looking into building my own

Nice. Unfortunately My keychron (k10 pro I think) just sits in a corner because it’s really hard to switch back to monolith after using a split. The quality of my split isn’t even half as good as the keychron, but it feels really uncomfortable to use the keychron now

It’s absurd because one does not learn Dvorak without taking effort to do so. You usually have to be already proficient before you switch to Dvorak. I’d expect you to be a touch typist in another layout before Dvorak.

It would be different if you didn’t say “only in”
