What sort of post or comment gets you downvoted the most? Especially if you don’t think it’s bad behavior in the first place, or don’t care. Does not have to be on Lemmy, but we are here… One of the good things about Lemmy IMO is that it’s small enough to see the posts that are unpopular. If you do “Top Day” on most channels, you cash reach the bottom, see what people here don’t like.
As far as comments, attempting to rebut the person who is telling me my post sucks, is what gets me into negative numbers most often. The OP is going to voite it down, of course, and nobody else cares, usually.

    I know this is probably bait, but I’d figured I’d try to explain the flaw in that logic.

    Ignoring the fact that gender dysphoria is a real thing whereas hysteria isn’t, there’s a more fundamental issue:

    • Surgery for trans people is championed and supported by the people undergoing their surgery. They explicitly consent and push for it.
    • Surgery for female hysteria was championed and supported by doctors who didn’t undergo the surgery. They ignored consent of women (or manipulated them into giving “consent”) and performed the operation anyway.

      absolutely, consent is the key.

      I still think gender is purely performative and surgery can’t fundamentally change that (currently).

      I hope one day we get rid of all trans people … because they can finish transitioning. /bait
