When a piece of content that doesn't allow downvotes, like a tweet, has lots more reposts than it does likes, the "ratio" is seen as proof the opinion was disagreed with, proportionally to the "ratio" itself.

"clearly wasn't"

I see now, you just phrase things abruptly in a way that SEEMS rude but clearly isn't. My mistake. Have a nice day.

Fair enough.

Not sure why you phrased that as correcting them when you were agreeing and adding to it.

That's not okay. What if somebody told you that you'd eventually revert to cisgendered? That'd be very hurtful and rude. Telling this person their sexuality identity will change because you think it should is wrong

I think that you hit a key note here: it's a crossover meme from other spaces. They're not Linux memes. I do get the joke, and why you make it, and I understand the concept of intersectional solidarity, and that it's a good thing.

I also think that when people who have been marginalized for a long time find spaces that accept them, tend to treat any space that accepts them as a space made "for" them and their issues, when really Linux has nothing to do with what's in my pants or yours or anyones. Linux isn't a men's thing, or a women's thing, or about gender at all.

I (don't) appreciate the fact that instead of empathizing and trying to address my concerns, you're telling me I'm overthinking it, and explaining it to me like I wouldn't understand the concepts of let's see, the meme itself, capitalism, socialism, and FOSS software.

It's a joke, yeah, I get it, but jokes are supposed to be funny and instead this one is using harmful language about trans people and FOSS software. Stop. And don't act like anyone who doesn't agree with you just doesn't get it.

I'm glad trans people and non binary people feel comfortable in Linux spaces. Everyone should feel accepted in what is ultimately about computer software. At the same time, I find it a little confusing just how much content seems to find 1:1 equivalence between trans/enby movements and using not-windows.

I really want trans people to feel comfortable here, but I also feel like the frequent repetition of content like this post sort of commoditizes transness. Am I not a valid trans person if I prefer Macs? Am I not a valid Linux user if I'm happy with my AGAB? Again, really happy trans/enby people are happy here, but when we start saying group 1 equals by definition group 2, people from both groups get left out.

True, but your savings on non-luxury bones helps with the fees associated with luxury ones, I'm sure. I can't do anything for my bones with a $30 glowing petunia.

Bioluminescent house plants are cool but as an American I can tell you right now that my luxury bones hurt.
