Lemmy is a worse platform for women than Reddit was EDIT this link is an OLD POST that contains my thesis on the state of lemmy and is not the context of the much more recent comment in the screenshot. sorry for any confusion caused by this juxtaposition, my main goal with having this linked is to expose how nothing has improved

    Oh hi, it’s the total stranger you accused of being a rapist in that dumpster fire of a thread. This is not an accurate retelling of what happened. The key difference is that while most other commenters were critical of the messaging in the post’s headline image (“Rapists are always a man”), you responded to them with personal attacks and bigotry.

    Ironically, some of the only examples of sexism in the entire thread were from you, including:

    decent men are aware that they are complicit by their very existence as men under the patriarchy, and invest their energy in being better and calling out their fellow men to try and improve your collective reputation

      If you think that quote is an example of sexism, you might be one of the reasons women would choose the bear.
