    Nah, someone definitely called me an incel, and even doubled down when I called them out on it.

    I know that wasn’t your intention, you were just sharing the video because it helped you come to your own awakening. Thanks for the clarification though :)

    Feel free to use the quote, but it’s up to you whether you include the attribution or just make it anonymous.

    reasons why:

    I tend to butt heads with a lot of people, even people that I mostly agree with (mostly when they can’t tolerate slight semantic or logical critiques or nuanced arguments that don’t conform 100% to their predefined scripts).

    Oddly enough, I’ve even been banned from a number of blahaj comms (all in one go, by one mod, for a discussion on lemmy.world…) because they thought I was being a transphobic troll for saying that sex assigned at birth is relevant information in medical contexts. Like, even while I was on HRT I understood that my doctor needed to know that information…

    So if you don’t want the stigma permanently tied to my username to rub off on you, it’s totally fine if you just make the quote anonymous. If it helps you, or anyone who visits your profile and reads it, then that’s enough. I don’t need credit.
