Being black is not a feeling or identity that needs affirming. It's just visible. There was no transgender slavery, lynching, redlining, etc. They're too different things, but discrimination isn't good no matter who it is against. Unless you think transracialism is real then you can't compare race to gender identity.
The point being made is that segregation and discrimination are wrong. To many people, the bathroom bills that have been pushed for the past few years are all too reminiscent of Jim Crow laws.
Being trans is also not a feeling or identity; it's a neurological condition. Gender and race are both things that are inherent to a person's existence; they're born in that way.

Hope you are okay, I am sorry that you can't openly say your views without getting a warning or fear of losing your account
Don't worry and don't take it hard on yourself, everything will be okay just avoid the negativity and move on!
Solution for all this problem is just built a gender inclusive washrooms and create a separate category in sports!
Coddling someone who's breaking rules isn't a smart thing to do; it encourages them to break the rules again. This isn't an issue of someone being unable to say their views; this is an issue of someone bringing the exact thing that I was venting about into this thread. The only negativity is the negativity that that person is spreading.
He's not a victim. Around half a dozen people have gotten warnings for making transphobic statements on my threads alone. Try showing sympathy for the one actually being wronged.
"Gender inclusive" bathrooms are unnecessary. I'm just gonna keep on using the women's bathroom because I belong in a women's bathroom. I have just as much right to use a women's bathroom as any cis woman. The sports aspect is a non-issue. Anyone who cares that much about sports is a pathetic loser.
Sports and bathrooms are also far from the only issues trans people face. We're disproportionately targeted for violent crime, and politicians are trying to strip away our healthcare. Gender isn't a protected category in many places, so numerous anti-trans hate crimes don't actually get accounted for by the FBI because cops don't treat them as hate crimes.
In February, a 16-year-old trans girl was murdered in the UK for being trans, and the media went out of their way to deadname and misgender her at every opportunity. Trans people aren't even being allowed to rest peacefully in death, let alone in life. Then you have the reactions that US conservatives are having to a single mass shooter being trans; they want to strip us of our constitutional rights and have even gone on record saying as much.
The majority of people don't even understand what being trans is, yet those exact people legislate around our existence. Then you have predatory creeps like Matt Walsh who obsess over children's genitals and want bodily autonomy to cease to exist.
I have made multiple threads about my struggles as a trans woman, and they constantly get raided by bigoted assholes who can't stand that they're not the center of attention, one even going so far as to sexually harass me. After being rightfully warned by mods, sometimes even by the site administrator herself, they play the victim despite being the instigators.
If someone posted something transphobic in another section of the site, I would report it, just like I report the transphobic responses that I get on my threads. Grow up.
