    Trump will continue trying to prosecute trans individuals and trans supporters with the force of law. Discord is not going to stick their neck out for you. They do not care about you. They’re selling all of your information to AI companies to target you.

        I can’t even see anything on Reddit anymore, much less post anything there.

            Have you jumped in to let them know? Because I can’t, and that makes three so far in this thread; meanwhile, it seems like you could have just gone ahead and done it already.

                That’s good work, and it’s more than anyone could ask of you, thank you for doing it! I hope it’s clear I was just turning your responses around; “feel free to jump in and let them know”, “sad to hear” don’t read well. I’m not in any way trying to say that you haven’t been doing enough.

                  I rephrased “sad to hear” to “that’s unfortunate”

                  What about “feel free to jump in and let them know”, how would you change it so that it still calls to action?

                    I think

                    More voices make a difference, lend us yours!

                    Or

                    Help spread the word, if you can!

                    Might read better, and they’re still short enough to post quickly.

                    When I’m home, I’ll look into creating an account or two securely and joining in. I’m already telling everyone I know about Lemmy in meatspace, it’s remarkable how even my technically-adept friends are still largely on Reddit.

                    Oh yes, and “sad to hear/that’s unfortunate” could use an endcap like “but no worries!” to soften them. Without the endcap and no further punctuation, they read negatively - maybe sarcastic, maybe passive-aggressive and uncaring, or something along those lines - I’m not really sure how to describe it at the moment beyond “negative”. Personally, I like to throw in a quick example of how I understand their position, but I think that’s optional.
