I'm refraining from saying shit. REFRAIN
How exactly? Trans people were already being long killed off and discriminated against before increased trans visibility. At the very least, exposure to trans people does aid in allowing some to grow up to be more tolerant of trans people and can make it easier to spread awareness of trans issues. Who are you to act as the spokesperson for an entire community of people? I have seen transpeople who have talked about wanting there to be more trans visibility, so I don't know why you are making sweeping generalizations about what that community wants.
No. The economy, by all metrics, has been doing really well. Trump is going to take credit for it, just like he took credit for Obama's economy. Meanwhile, Trump is going to put tariffs on everything which will only raise prices inside the US as foreign goods will be more expensive - and will lead to us falling behind as the #1 trade economy. We were also the largest exporter of energy under Biden - more-so than Trump. I am a statistician who works on the Economic Census - you are not going to gaslight me about the economy. Also, I am going to lose my job because DTJ wants to completely cut DOC. Oh... and I won't get healthcare either and might have to flee from deranged mouth breathers who call me a pedophile merely for my gender identity.
So I'm assuming you're part of the lgbt community. Makes sense why you feel this way
I am just speaking objectively. Yes I am part of the LGBT community, but everything I said is true regardless of what my identity is. I wonder why you would vote for someone like that if it makes sense to you. Maybe you just hate us.
Because most transsexuals are dysphoric, and don't like being reminded that they are trans. Thats why you have many who want to live "stealth" with no one knowing they are trans, but that is increasingly difficult as media coverage makes it much easier for normal people to detect us. It's at the point where cis people are getting misgendered and accused of being transgender.
Well I won't pretend that the whole community wants one thing, but there seems to be two types. One that wants to be "out and proud" and one that wants to transition and never be reminded that they were born as trans ever again. All of this added coverage on trans people has made it astronomically harder for the latter. As transphobes are more easily able to decipher who is and isn't trans due to increased exposure. Even allies and liberals still tend to treat transsexuals in ways that are dysphoria inducing, such as asking for sex assigned at birth or calling people AMABs and AFABs as a euphemism for man and woman.
Did you miss where I said that Donald Trump and his administration is way way worse in this case? Its not even close.
XD
It becomes a problem when people's opinions turn into realities that infringe upon other people's fundamental human rights.
Completely ignoring the point, that being if things clearly weren't good before Trump then you also have them to blame. There being sides doesn't mean one is more right, both can have very bad problems in different ways.
Are you saying that it's acceptable for one "side" to infringe upon the fundamental human rights of the other?
Do you really think any response is trying to justify hate?
Neither did I say they are exactly the same. I said they are both bad, each for different reasons.
I'm loth to lecture people who actually *live in America* about their own politics so I'll keep a great deal at bay here but the reality is if you care enough about trans rights and abortion you're going to have to do more than vote once every four years and pray for a corporate liberal shill to save you. An election is not politics as a whole, it's something you do in between, and the dems spent ten years stifling anything to the left inorder to deliver two Trump administrations sandwiched between that of a puppeteered senile paedophile.
I completely agree with everything you said here, I couldn't put in into the right words but this so much. An election is not the end of everything and people need to understand this huge breakdowns to the point posts had to be made begging people to, please, stop killing themselves solely over results (apologists then changed it into it being "the final straw", doesn't make it any less unhealthy), affects them, and no one else than them, over something that isn't fucking true.
I understand you're feeling under fire for being in a minority here. If you are feeling personally attacked by something I've said, I want to be clear: I am addressing the issues without attaching judgement.
This works both ways. The Democratic Party is riddled with flaws, and they disgust me. But I am disgusted more so by a Republican Party that chooses a Donald Trump as its leader.
I am wholeheartedly on board with everything you just said. But of ^this specifically, American politics are of worldwide concern, and I think you would be very much justified in chiming in, especially since you'd prompt people to think deeper about it and likely add a much-needed balance to all the emotion.
i'm never trusting liberals again after this election, that's for damn sure.
Well, something isn't adding up here. What's so bad about saying trans people are "hecking" valid? Who is saying they are the exact same a cis? Most transsexuals want to be treated the same as cis, and that is probably what they mean.
There it is. This whole "sex-based rights" talking point, which only serves to ghettoize transsexuals into a thrid gender catagory. Next you will be saying Sex assigned at birth needs to be on the license, and that transsexual women need to use the men's room and go to male prisons due to biological differences.
I actually do think MtFs should not be involved with pro-sports if transitioning after puberty. as there is an considerable advantage even after hrt, though not as much as the conservatives want you to think. The far left has again sabotaged the movement by trying to get us into sports rather than focusing on basic rights. They always got to push things too far.
yes, that's what I have been saying. Because transsexuals don't like being defined by their transsexual nature due to the mechnics of gender dysphoria.
You are incorrect. Project 2025 was created by people within his administration and who are close to Trump. Agenda 47, which Trump wrote, also singles out trans people and the two documents have a strong overlap in their objectives. Trump also thinks trans people are a new phenomenon that has "never existed in all of humn history". Project 2025 is already in action and Roe v Wade was just the first part of this takeover.
See! There it is. I knew you were transphobic. But then you act suprised when not-transphobic moderators on specific subreddits decide they don't want to platform someone with your type of veiws.
Having the same rights isn't "walking over females". You get canceled cuz your a phobe. Cry harder.
Politicians don't lie? This is news to me! People on his administration literally made it. Did you ignore what I said about agenda 47? Stop cherrypicking.
Thanks for proving my point. I said even if you have mild or reasonable views or want to protect the right of females immediately the finger is pointed at you and the word transphobia falls. Ok, so I'm transphobic and you're misogynistic then. Is calling people terms like that satisfying to you?
