So if it breaks one person away but twenty more say they knew they were right about all them and refuse to ever attempt to engage in discussion again, that’s good?
Yeah, it’s fucked. We have people insisting that trans people are grooming kids while preachers keep getting arrested for actually doing far more than the trans folks are even accused of. But if you throw a whole lot of the country into the deep end of the pool they’ll just drown while they take all the lifeguards down with them. But if you can let them dip their toes in the shallow end then you may find them swimming laps before you realize.
queer people started getting rights and acceptance after they started throwing bricks, not before. rights are taken, never granted. the genocidal policies will succeed in their project if they are not met forcefully. as a trans person, you can fuck all the way off - I will not be polite and civil with people who think my right to exist is open to debate. to accept the premise and engage in debate denies my own humanity. I exist, the people I love exist, and we will fight to the grave anyone who denies it. and I abso-fucking-lutely do not give a shit about the feelings of debatelords.
There’s a huge gap between people who think your right to exist is open to debate and a random person on the internet who doesn’t know what the position of the instance is.
I pointed out that the overly polite statement in the comic is not reflective of reality and plenty of you are doing a great job of demonstrating that.
Plenty of my patience has been met with thrown vitriol and asshole behavior in here too. I’ve tried to respond in the way I’ve been met. I’m not perfect and I’m sure I’ve failed in places but I’m also out here by myself.
I think the vast majority here are also responding to you in the way they feel they’ve been met as well. I can empathize with the frustration and defensiveness of being alone.

once again, fuck alllllll the way off.

People have been nothing but patient with you in this thread. You’re the one throwing vitriol and being an asshole here.

I thought I prepared myself before I left the first comment but, as stated, not perfect.
Thanks for the understanding
