On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)

    I mean you’re kinda making a blanket statement, I can’t really work with ‘countless stories’ – Can ya specify?

    And please, don’t hold me accountable for making the comparison. I never made the comparison, perhaps you should tell the above user

    We’re not playing the “who has it worse” game because everyone loses.

    And also, I’m not a majority. I’m a minority as well.

      Here you go. Please see… oh, pretty much any result. Throw a dart if you like. I don’t need to specify, because frankly if you somehow missed every last news story, social media post, or just the constantly escalating hateful rhetoric against them, then you absolutely shouldn’t be fucking talking about it.

      No, you made the contrast. You were the one that suggested that one situation is oppression and the other is not.

      And also, I’m not a majority. I’m a minority as well.

      If you’re cisgender, you’re the majority to their minority. You are a majority to them, playing the “who has it worse” game, where again, everyone loses.

        Seems to be only in the US and biased articles. I can’t anything about other countries.

        I hope you see the irony in this lol

        tho, I am curious, why not just use unisex bathrooms? Wouldn’t that be a solution everyone can get behind?

          A lot of people didn’t see a problem with segregating water fountains by race, either.

          also i’m not sure if slavery and lynching are the same as being denied a bathroom.

          Seems to be only in the US and biased articles. I can’t anything about other countries.

          Where exactly did you think we were talking about? What kind of bad faith shit is this?

          And biased articles? My god. Biased against what? Transphobia? What about the edu articles? The research papers? Do you need assistance operating the search engine?

          I’m sorry, could you explain the irony? Do you think oppressed minorities can’t also be oppressors? That they can’t be misogynists, homophobes, transphobes, or just good-old-fashioned racists themselves?

          tho, I am curious, why not just use unisex bathrooms? Wouldn’t that be a solution everyone can get behind

          Unisex bathrooms are a solution that almost everyone transgender or ally gets behind. But they don’t currently exist in most places that need more than two toilets in the building. I should clarify, because apparently I need to - we’re talking about the United States.

          And, by the way, “maybe they should just have a separate place to go to the bathroom”?

          Sound familiar? Does it sound like segregation? Because it is. They should be able to use the bathroom for their gender without being fucking harassed, or worrying about being harassed. End of story.

              Comes into a thread about the oppression of transgender people

              Claims that transgender people aren’t oppressed

              Not going to talk about the US

              You know exactly what you’re doing. I can’t believe you’re a mod, you fucking clown.

                Okay, I concede that the situation in the US is concerning for trans and queer folk. I tend not to think of US defaultism when discussing social issues.

                Do you accept that?
