    “Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women?”

    Where is the division?

      Where’s the division? It starts and ends with the “…for women” part.

      By women, sure that’s not divisive at all but if something is being set up specifically for one gender it’s inherently divisive.

      Don’t get me wrong, I understand why women would want it, but at the same time describing it as non-divisive doesn’t work.

        Ah give me a break. Can’t there be something that is designed specifically for women without you feeling excluded? Nobody says that you aren’t allowed to participate.

          Why are you making it personal about me? I don’t give a damn what you do. Did you see the part of my last comment where I said that I can understand why women would want it?

          You asked a question, I provided an answer. It is inherently divisive by definition, and that’s completely fine. Pull your head out.

          I completely agree with you.

          White people are just frustrated equality means feeling burdens, pains, and other things equally. By all carrying a little, you can carry a whole lot. However, I’ve learned it comes from a place of comfort. They think the world around them is sound, that rules exist and structure permeates. They are but babies to reality. Even the christians among them do not understand the misery and suffering the bible speaks of.

          Those that propagate these lies, they witness not injustices but a system they can exploit. They are the demons that keep us awake at night and fearing our safety.

              It makes me happy that you too fear. It feels like maybe I am not alone in carrying all this pain, that it is worth continuing. That I feel the burden for people who truly want to see love and kindness proliferate.

                  Already on it. Saving spools of wick too because, sadly I fear a worse timeline than that of America.

                  You see my brother, he died years ago. Homeless, been everywhere here and there. Bipolar and bottom of the barrel. It hurts to say this but it is truthful.

                  He told my mom 3 things that have stuck with me. 1. I am her compensation for all her suffering. 2. He was sent by god. 3. His old gang was being wiped out, his time was coming.

                  I called him deluded by some undiagnosed condition.

                  Now here I am. Just scared because I followed my heart and it led me here too. I wanted a peaceful life, but I have knowledge if not for people, but for the new life humanity is birthing.

                  2 millennia of history, it is hard to catch up.

        Sounds racist. You see the problem?
