After the blackout...

I'll be staying for sure and use it as my main, but I will still visit Reddit just for my cute kitty video fix.

One thing about Reddit that has the edge over Lemmy is the ease of posting/watching videos. Though, I totally get why it's not as feasible on here.

RuPaul’s new online bookstore under fire for selling right-wing extremist, anti-LGBTQ+ titles

A drag queen is an entertainer and drag is an art form. Some are cis men, some are trans women, some are trans men, some are non-binary people and some are cis women. The vast majority are queer, but some are straight people do drag too. So basically anyone can do drag, but the majority are queer cis men.

Also transvestite is an archaic term and is mostly offensive/derogatory.

I think there should be a consensus on how people should vote on posts here, and that consensus should be made into a rule that gets put in the about section of this community and/or a pinned post

I'm wondering if you read my post fully. My post is specifically relating to this community, not Lemmy as a whole. And I said you should downvote what you agree with in this community. I'm not what your argument is. Are you arguing against voting in gerenal?

Voting is an efficient way of gaging what people think about an opinion. People have finite time and energy. Not everyone who comes across an opinion should have say anything or justify their votes. There will always be some who comment, but expecting it from everyone seems unreasonable. I'm on lemmy a lot but I never post/comment, just read and vote. Posting/commenting requires a lot of energy from me.

Glad you changed your mind on the autism thing and that it took a few nice people to help you with that.

Edit: slight grammar fix
