I don’t complain about having to see other people doing their own thing. Weird how that upsets you so much that you have to write comments about how that impacts your personal experience of a platform for people to discuss their interests.

Sorry other people existing is such a problem for you personally.
‘if you don’t support trans rights … you’re a bigot/nazi/genocide supporter’
It’s better to remain silent than proclaim your bigotry if you don’t want to participate in the marketplace of ideas.
Then don’t get into a conversation about trans issues. You can also replace ‘trans issues’ with any other topics. Curate your own feed if it bothers you so much to see other people’s conversations.

“But there is plenty of blame to go around,” as Sovietologist John Arch Getty recently noted in The London Review of Books. “It must be shared by the tens of thousands of activists and officials who carried out the policy and by the peasants who chose to slaughter animals, burn fields, and boycott cultivation in protest.”
Such a balanced analysis, however, has never satisfied Ukrainian nationalists in the United States and Canada, for whom the “terror-famine” is an article of faith and communal rallying point. For decades after the fact, their obsession was confined to émigré journals.
After 50 years on the fringes, the Ukraine famine debate is finally front and center. While one-note faminologists may teach us little real history, they reveal how our sense of history is pulled by political fashion until it hardens into the taffy of conventional wisdom. And how you can fool most of the people most of the time — especially when you tell them what they want to hear.
The United States is just a nation of America. America is two whole continents of peoples. That is the whole point the end of the performance was making. USians aren’t the only “Americans”.
