Before I begin, I should clarify 1) I firmly stand against the transphobia that has seen a rise since yesterday 2) I don’t condone violence like what happened either, and 3) I don’t fully know how the papacy structure currently works
When the Bolsheviks killed the Romanovs, the pope at the time instantly canonized the Romanovs and that was the biggest PR blow to the Bolsheviks. Today there’s a pope who people show pride in as being from America, specifically Chicago. And he even speaks English. Anything he or even a top cardinal says on the Minneapolis matter is going to have weight when it comes to trans individuals. I guess my question is, if I am to say I fear that the shooter awakened a sleeping giant, how do we, you know, put the giant back to sleep without it misstepping anywhere? This isn’t just a worrywort talking, I’ve seen shit happen and know how things can go downhill fast. There must be some emergency “halt papal discussion of the topic” button somewhere.
Did you used to have an account on lemm.ee called Call Me Lenny/Leni/shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee?
I thought that place was dead.
Did you used to have an account on Lemmy by the name of Call Me Lenny/Leni/shinigamiookamiryuu?
Yes or no?
What does it look like? Does this ongoing discussion truly sound like the kind of concern that would be compatible with a certain individual that was declared unwelcome in trans communities based on a history of intolerance?
I don’t know your game, but with all that having been expressed, don’t compare me to a transphobe. I’m not even sure what anyone who isn’t obsessed with past community members would think this has to do with the question.
Yes or no?
If you can’t read the room, that was a no on their part.
