(I'm just trying to learn. No hidden mockery in this and this is no gotcha bs aimed at t women. I'm NOT transphobic. Just saw this in a debate and wanted to know other people's thoughts)

I just want to know:

Is this factually correct?
If it is, does it matter? Why or why not?
How would you logically respond to this?
How does this statement not contradict with Trans Women are Women

Oh sweet baby Jesus... 🤦...
Uhm thanks for pointing that out...

The word was supposed to be "weird" and there's no sane way, no matter how badly I smashed my big fat appendages across the screen, that spell correct could have thought I meant to type "wet", but yet somehow that's what it chose.

My phone finally forced me to let it update to the newer os stuffed full of ai, and now does some insanely weird spell corrections. It will even sometimes change words that I have spelled correctly to things that mean something completely different. But this one is a real beauty. Honestly, it's so fucked up that I am just going to leave it.
