Not me, but if you’ve been following the drama, they removed this post about the unique issues we face as “divisive.”

It fucking sucks. There’s been a lot of discussion in other trans masc spaces about “transandrophobia” and this seems to absolutely demonstrate it. We aren’t treated seriously in spaces that should be welcoming for us.

People assume “trans” means trans woman. Spaces for trans people are often for trans women. Jamison Green wrote a while back about us not really having our own community, decades ago, and it still feels true today.

Yeah most trans subs are fucking abysmal every time there's a new round of intracommunity discourse. It really shouldn't be this hard to accept that different marginalised identities are affected in unique ways by various power structures in society and within communities, but no, it invariably turns into this shit-slinging contest between subsets of the community. I know a lot of people just genuinely hold these sort of attitudes, but I do wonder how much of it rises to the forefront of the discussion due to shit-stirring from bad actors outside of the community.
