Part of not being transphobic is accepting that trans people don't have to be likeable to count as trans. There are pieces of shit in every walk of life and expecting all trans people to have politics that align with yours means your acceptance of gender identity is entirely conditional and therefore never really existed in the first place and was just something you said to at best look good but in effect also to exploit trans people for your own gains.

this is once again https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magical_Negro in new clothes.

they always do this. did it with jews in europe, they did it with black people, they're doing it with trans people. serve us, be the thing we imagine you to be, or else you're useless to us and deserve destruction.

fucking hell.

Biden said it explicitly in 2020 to black Americans

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

Absolutely. I bet you can immediately conjure the 'good' and 'bad' stereotype of literally any wfen remotely marginalized group within a second after hearing one named.

Right? She should be (the first two pages of 'discipline and punish') but we can use the public exemplary violence to also send a positive affirming signal to trans people.

It's clear libs only "support" various minority groups because they believe they are on the same political team. As soon as you fall out of line, so does their "support". You see this happen every time the left uses political energy towards anything not explicitly in an effort to elect democrats. See BLM, Covid, Palestine protests, all local organizing.

Kyle is a fucking dumbass who moved right as soon as Bernie tanked. He and Krystal are the exact type of opportunistic establishment liberals they pretended to be against in 2016.

Liberals just love waiting for chances to go mask-off. Disgusting transphobia is just a scratch away, these fuckers know no solidarity.

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 34 points 3 months ago

Fucking gross and inexcusable.

libs are just waiting for an excuse to be racist, misogynistic or transphobic, sometimes all at once! The target only has to do something wrong and thus become an "acceptable" target

How fucking hard is it to have principles?

[–] urmums401k@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Long answer: Lets work through this; What is a lib? Like, what do they do and what makes them that way? What motivates lib shit behaviors?

Short answer: literally impossible until they're basically entirely different people.

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Liberals don't have principles; they have "positions"

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 26 points 3 months ago

Libs do this all the time.

If you not being a bigot is conditional on other people appeasing you, you're just a bigot.

[–] nandos_house_of_glues@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

as disgusting and cowardly as it is predictable, sadly

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Man, there are SO many ways to insult people without being ableist, racist, transphobic...

Don't be THAT kind of tool just because you can't come up with anything
