~~Checks out for a Trump voter.~~
^misunderstanding
Wait is that in reference to me?
I was responding to a transphobe saying his opinion about an issue he knows nothing about is not valid compared to the lived experience of trans people.
Also I'm Canadian. Check my post history. It's all there.
You posted top level on this post. Looks a lot like you're responding to the OP.
Yeah I noticed that. I was confused about the mass down voting. Not sure if he deleted his comment or I clicked the wrong response arrow.
Either way, when I see people posting nazi propaganda about trans people (or anyone for that matter) I tend to get defensive.
People forget that when the nazis got into power they didn't go straight for the Jewish community, they dipped their toes in the water by going after the lgbtq community first. Once they got away with that they knew they could go after the disabled, Jews and Roma etc. The Republicans are currently following the nazi playbook.
Well I feel bad for flaming you. Might want to make an edit clarifying that you weren't responding to OP, because you really look like a Trump voter saying lol to this post
No worries. I'm just glad I'm not a trump supporter. 😅
I'm kinda surprised I'm getting down voted for pointing out someone has a bigoted opinion about an issue they have no knowledge about. As someone whose actually been dealing with gender dysphoria since the 1970s I've become rather knowledgeable about the subject and as someone careening towards 50 I don't have the patience to coddle bigots.
If that makes me unpopular then oh well.
