Trans People Who Left The United States, How’s Life For You Now?

submitted by https://lemmy.ca/u/Sunshine

How was the move? What things did you need to adjust to? Are the people more accepting in your new home? Is there anything you miss?

I saw a thread on this topic on Reddit and I wanted to have the same interesting conversation here.

Life Pro Tip: throw a pizza party for your landlord. Should work out right?

Bad luck for everyone involved. Even the kid.

Vasectomy safe is the way to be. Freeze your sperm if you must. It gives you the ability to choose at the same time together.

TIL about 'This Man', a conceptual art project and hoax that was popular around 2008 - 2010, which ultimately turned out to be guerilla marketing

/c/196@lemmy.world mods (Moss) are banning people they disagree with

submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/Stamets

showing that I wasn’t trolling.

I went through everything that I did with that community and cannot find a singular thing with the exception of a memory.

I had posted a meme a couple of weeks ago. I don’t remember exactly what it was but I remember a moderator saying on it an hour or two after posting that it should be marked as NSFW. I disagreed with this assessment. I left a comment in response saying that I disagreed that it should be marked and that I would refuse to mark it as NSFW. However, I also respect that it is their community and their rules so I settled for something different. I didn’t add an NSFW tag, I just deleted it wholesale. I didn’t want to add a tag to something that I didn’t feel was applicable and instead of having to sit with that tag on the post, I just deleted the post entirely.

So this only leaves two options from the mods of 196.

Either they banned me for posting comments that were supportive of the community itself and not directly supportive of them or they banned me for deleting a post.

In either case? The moderators of https://lemmy.world/c/196

are no better than reddit moderators who just lash out for their own ego. Blanket bans for disagreements.

And perhaps unsurprisingly and perfectly fitting of every single accusation that has been levied so far against them and their abusive practices, the last moderator to interact with me was https://lemmy.world/u/moss

.

I find it fucking hysterical how the mods over there are so vehemently Anti-Trump (and should be given the userbase and content) but act no better than someone in his administration.

Edit: I found the post about it being NSFW after going through Moss’ profile but unsurprisingly Moss had to go ahead and suppress my comment there as well. It’s remarkable how much of their profile is just whining about being treated unfairly while they’re going ahead and treating people unfairly. But of course, Moss (being a redditor) had to go ahead and downvote before the removal of the post. Fragile… jesus.

German court orders X to hand over election data in legal blow to Musk’s platform

submitted by https://lemm.ee/u/MicroWave

Summary

A German court ruled that Elon Musk’s X must immediately provide researchers with data on politically related content ahead of Germany’s Feb. 23 election.

The lawsuit, filed by Democracy Reporting International and the Society for Civil Rights, accused X of blocking efforts to track election interference.

The ruling enforces the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), requiring major platforms to grant researcher access. It also orders X to pay legal costs and imposes a €6,000 procedural fine.

The decision sets a legal precedent, but it remains unclear if X will appeal.
