But I will say this, a movement can’t get along without a devil, and across the whole political spectrum there is a misogynistic tendency to choose a female devil, whether it’s Anita Bryant, Hillary Clinton, Marie Antoinette, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or J.K. Rowling [or Taylor Swift]. And there’s always gonna be people who seize on any opportunity to be misogynistic. So I would advise trans people and our allies [or environmentalists] to keep in mind, that J.K. Rowling [Taylor Swift] is not the final boss of transphobia [anti-environmentalism]. She’s not our devil. The devil is the Republican Party, the Conservative Party.

    Believe it or not, I don’t have to do what you order me to do.

    Also believe it or not, you can stop replying to me at any time. That you haven’t proves that you don’t actually want me to fuck off.

    We’ll see if you continue to prove that. All you have to do to show I’m wrong is not respond.

    On the other hand, you could explain why you’re arguing with me when we agree.

        Thanks for proving me correct. I’m not a mod in this community. I’m not sure why you think I am.

        Also, please quote the racist thing I said. Unless that was a lie, of course. Personally, I think it was a lie. You can prove me wrong on that one too.

          Cool, so now the racist mod harassing me demands I stop bringing up the racist things they said, while they harass me.

          Fuck off

            Are you actually trying to gaslight me into agreeing with you that I’m a mod on 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone and that I’m a racist? Because this is pretty pathetic.

                Again, you can stop replying to me any time you want.

                And I’m still not a mod here:

                Note the word ‘mods.’ Note my name isn’t there.

                Are you going to continue this silly gaslighting?

                    I’ll make a deal with you- I will happily fuck off just as soon as you explain why you lied about me being a mod and a racist.

                    Until then, I will not fuck off. Sorry. I’ve got a lot of time on my hands and apparently so do you, so I guess this will go on for a very long time.

                    Unless you explain why you lied of course.
