    presenting a DM from someone who absolutely doesn’t have internalized transphobia, never heard of it:

    So I’m gonna reach out and say that you hastily misunderstood “and that shit about trans people”. I’m talking about the hate speech from the right wing. Keep me banned though that community is full of people who really have a low level reading ability.

    when a libertarian-presenting shithead with not particularly deep political takes posts “it’s a distraction just like the bullshit about trans people” with no other qualifiers, it’s absolutely understood as a dogwhistle for “people need to shut up about trans issues”

    and if I’m wrong about that? using trans folks to make your bullshit points is still fucking transphobia. don’t do this shit. it’s fucking concerning you can’t understand that.

    e: also, and this is important: the republicans are planning a fucking genocide of trans folks and you’re calling it a distraction. what the fuck is wrong with you.

      “keep me banned though”

      the fuck? they thought a pestering third-avenue dm would have resulted in a different action?

      “that community is full of people who really have a low level reading ability”

      absolutely fucking perfect, 300/10, no notes

      what the utter belligerent fuck

        I can’t tell whether their intended point with that last one was “I said all the dogwhistles and none of you agreed instantly!”, or a genuine intent at stating that there was a perceived shallowness in our communal reading comprehension

        and either case just makes no goddamn sense whatsoever, what the fuck
