    Could you remove the embedded images? We have a rule in the community about not reposting bigoted content.

    Absolutely think its fine to discuss here, but people have expressed in the past some discomfort with bigoted media being shared.

      Why, it’s evidence of things going on? It’s not even bigoted media either, just screenshots of news articles reporting on it and most of the articles described it in a very negative light.

        I think it makes more sense bearing in mind that this is first and foremost a supportive community for transfeminine people. Like the point is to give transfeminine folks a space to talk and share things with each other. What theyre going through, what joys and struggles theyre having, things that they value or are interested in, ask each other questions. That is the point of the community.

        I think its important that you be able to talk about things like this that are going on and affect our lives, but I dont think its necessary to share individual pictures of this bigoted asshole or his campaign here. There are other communities more oriented around trans news where I think that makes more sense.

        I dont think asking specifically for images to be removed is too much. The rule is in the sidebar and was created with this kind of thing in mind.

        I’m mostly referring to the image of the post itself. The screenshots of news sites are fine.
