I can't imagine being so fucking fragile that the mere acknowledgement of the existance of people that I have never met and will likely never meet causes me to lose my fucking mind. How fucking delicate are these fetid shitbags?

as time goes on i grow increasingly convinced that they are just in extreme denial about themselves: at some level they know they're not completely straight or cis and any exposure to people who are comfortable with being such forces them to confront it in themselves, and due to societal pressure and upbringing this makes them feel terrible, so instinctively they reach for the easiest way out which is to remove the trigger.
They are indoctrinated to fear, hate, and self-loathing. That's why so many of them spend their lives arguing against marriage equality, equal rights, and doing things like promoting conversion therapy only to finally acknowledge themselves and come out.
They do so much damage to themselves and to society.

Oookaaay, BBC.
On a side note, Earthspark is such a neat show. The sound and visual design is fantastic, the voicework is top notch and the animation is really well done. There's a series one episode where the Seekers are attacking Prime and Megatron and it's just pure visual poetry.
The censored video played.
Then I tried the uncensored video.

I actually suspect there may be different versions available and there's some tiny flag or label somewhere that says one is available to do and so audience or distribution and they picked that one, because it was there. Nobody even knew what the difference was.
Same reason but a different side effect makes it so one gets flagged for licensing and one doesn't.
The space robot from Planet Cybertron has to have a PENIS or a VAGINA or its GROOMING
I cannot believe this is real what the fuck
