i did, but i’m glad haha. spelling is not my strong suit, so i spelled it a way and then spell check corrected it to what i put and i just said “you know best spell check”
mood but also they’re really mean to each other for no reason. I quickly moved to the equivalent reddit communities where people are a bit nicer but still post the same kinds of art and call each other homophobic slurs (affectionate)
A lot of the posts to the /lgbt/ board (some people refer to it as /tttt/ for certain reasons) are self-hatred posts, also most of the people who post there are nasty people who have been banned from other spaces for gatekeeping or attacking other queer people i.e. Transmedicalists, and Nonbinary exclusionists (people who don’t believe that Nonbinary people are valid at all).
So yeah I do think there is a lot of cognitive dissonance in people posting there, either people who hate themselves and feel the hate is justified, or people who think they’re the only real gay or trans people and everyone else outside their group is posing. Basically, nasty people.

being queer and on 4chan is an experience in cognitive dissidence.

You probably meant “dissonance”, but I love the phrase “Cognitive Dissidence” and I’m going to use it all the time now.

Honestly the trans community on 4chan is the only one I ever felt at home with. Most queer subcultures are fake AF and those mfers keep it real.

There was a time long in the past, where 4chan was the place you could find the most gay porn, and hate for gays, right next to each other.
