It’s called not having anything else to add to a conversation that is going nowhere. It’s not that deep.

Good lord. This is exactly the type of shit I’m making a point about….
Me bringing up a VALID view point of a woman who is in the process of transitioning to a man, is centering a man’s voice…?
That is certainly a take….

See, I feel like everyone isn’t actually paying attention to what I am saying.
What I am saying is that these types of communities, where only one group can participate in actual conversation, IS an echo chamber.
It’s like if there was a misogynistic community, where only the most vile of men would want to be, where they only hear bad things about women and say bad things about women.
I’m almost certain that that would be frowned upon by normal men/women/people.
Andrew Tate is a very well known douchebag who literally operates in and on an echo chamber…
Really, it’s just not a good look and that’s all I really have to say. Sorry if it rubbed you the wrong way (not just you, in general) but I will stand by what I said and this: echo chambers, where only one group can initiate and interact, are kind of ruining the whole reason a lot of us left Reddit.

And you aren’t addressing anything I’ve said either, so I think we’ve come to a stalemate.

Well, no. I think you’re just not listening to what I’m saying, and I don’t really have a better way to get it across to you right now.
Have a good rest of your day!

I understand the challenges of that, and the challenges of having a safe space for women (hopefully of all spectrums…), but the way they handle it now is just bad and shouldn’t be encouraged.
If I was a woman transitioning into a man, would I still be welcome? I have the experiences that some women have had, but since I am becoming a man, then does that mean I can only comment in other communities now?
It’s just not a good way to handle things, I’m sorry.

Let’s take your example a little bit further than some plants.
I see a community that only allows asians or white people to comment, and actively deletes any comments with any name that even semi looks like a “black username” or a “latino username”.
Would you not call that out as being, well, an echo chamber?
“sorry, pyre, your comment was deleted as this is a whites only community. :)”
It’s just not a good look, or something I want to see here on an open source platform. :/

Not at all. People’s opinions don’t mean much anyway, hell not even my own!
If you want a safe space on a public forum, then I highly recommend just making it private.
I have literally seen them delete someone’s comment because they ASSUMED the commenter was a man, when they were in the process of transitioning to a women. This led to the person being very confused, and probably feeling like the community wasn’t welcoming to trans people. Being so heavy handed with the way they mod their safe space has probably alienated more people than they welcomed.
I just think it’s a crappy way to handle things, whether it be men or women. If I ever stumble into a mens only community that is as bad as WomensStuff, I will be sure to say the same thing.
Have a good rest of your day!

I just think of Dull Mens Club and how they allow anyone to post there.
The problem with WomensStuff is how heavy handed they are with not allowing anyone who isn’t specific enough to post and comment there. Posting, I totally understand. Removing comments the way they do just rubs me so wrong. It’s just not a good look.

You can try WeMod. That’s what usually allows me to complete games, especially since I don’t have a lot of time and just want to have fun in the game after a very long work day!
