Why is there such a large amount of communist and transgender related posts on the Fediverse compared to other platforms?

I am not criticizing them, I'm just out of the loop.

Trans are bullied and socially ostrichized irl, so they tend to be terminally online. A lot of trans are also coders. They manage to find themselves in to pretty much every obscure techy social space online, they don't got anything else going on irl.
ostrichized
I just want to take a moment off topic to say how much I love this new word (malaprop?).
The word you were hoping for is 'ostracized', but ostrichized is a fun enough mental image that it should be its own word too.
that'd be pretty wicked if they could turn into ostriches too
One thing at a time please.
Now I’m imagining a mad scientist with a ray gun that “ostrichizes” people who annoy them.
Screwed up coffee order? ZAP! The barista gets turned into an ostrich. Annoying, pushy person at the door handing out pamphlets? ZAP! Try saving souls as an ostrich. Have a cart overflowing with groceries in the “Ten Items or Less” line? ZAP! Ostrich.
I’d watch the shit outta this cartoon
Turning people into Ostriches is secretly the gay agenda
That’s the significance of rainbows. The ostrich beam is multicolored.
Megamind: "Lol get ostriched idiot"
I was thinking of could be a great way to describe self ostracism to ignore problems, like the putting your head in the sand ostrich trope.
Your scenario is more fun, an ostrich raygun should be a weapon in a video game like Saints Row or something.
May I quote you to boneappletea@lemmy.world?
