If the comment was about "black people causing the most crime in the US", would you think it's worth listening to? Something having citations and being written in a "civil" tone does not necessarily mean it's high level discourse.
Some people hear dog whistles. Some don't.
If they had facts and hard data to back it up, it would at least be worth discussing.
The problem is too many have opinions based on feelings, and feelings are not stable or permanent ... they can change from moment to moment, hour by hour and day by day.
In your opinion ... unless you have facts/data to back that up.
A statistic can be factual and tell a misleading or incorrect story. A study can be flawed or one could say x and be shared while another says y and is ignored. And these can all be used together to push
...opinions. Often this can be employed to push opinions that a consensus of people determine is harmful.
This is an Internet forum not a debate hall, so people are in no way owed to be rhetorically dueled with a riposte of links and citations.
If a community decides it's not a place to debate the merit of trans people existing and being accepted (or any other topic), it has that right.
