Also explains why all the porn of us calls us slurs. I hate it.

(Seriously, it's so hard finding trans porn that feels like it's for trans people instead of for people that want to dehumanize us)

I have no issue finding trans porn that isn't dehumanizing and has no slurs.

Honestly, I think it goes deeper than that, I think that many guys that go for trans porn actually are very into it, probably because it's such a "taboo" subject for them.

It's similar to whenever there is a Republican or conservative convention somewhere, immediately it becomes a Grindr hotspot.

There are boat loads of gay / trans people in those extremist communities, because of course there are, and while publicly they will bash anything LGBT, privately they get off on it

See also that mega extremist church pastor that would constantly bash the gays and then got caught snorting coke from a gay prostitute

Edit:to add to this: I think that most trans porn made is not primarily made for trans people, but for men. Similarly to how most gangbang porn also isn't for girls, it's for men. Sure, trans people and girls can watch it, enjoy it, everyone is free to do whatever as long as they don't hurt anyone or thing, as far as I am concerned, but the main audience is just plain men.

I know a guy who's a sex worker and he has had quite a few clients who are actively homophobic. When he told me this, I made a comment based on the assumption that these guys were closeted gays with internalised homophobia and he said "no, I think it's something deeper than that"

His theory was that it's basically a convoluted humiliation kink, where they are genuinely grossed out by the idea of having sex with a man, but they do it anyway because of the tabooness of it

I suppose there"s different kinds of extreme-right and evolutions.
All awful of course.
In Europe they misappropriate LGBT to make a point about Islam and their intollerance to it.
Same for women's rights.
I do not particularly think they care for any of those.
Obviously everywhere they stopped being antisemitic to support their fascist zionist partners.
