    Trans person: “Cis people suck, they keep passing laws and push rhetoric that kills people like me. They are toxic and hateful.”

    Some random cis person: “tHaTs HaTeFuL yOu HyPoCrItE”

    In my experience, cis people are the only ones erasing us and trying to pass laws and rhetoric that kills us. Sorry it’s not easy to “nuance” a voice of frustration around that. Cis people honestly kinda suck. Looking forward to another tone police reply.

      And it’s Isrealis who are genociding Palestinians, Russians who are invading and killing Ukrainians, and Chinese that are genociding Uighurs, but it’s ignorant and hateful to make blanket statements like “Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck,” as any fully-formed person understands that having no control over a group you were born to does not indict you for the crimes of the very worst of that group.

      Grow up.

        So if Ukrainians said that Russians suck, are you gonna jump in to defend Russians? What if Palestinians said that Israeli people suck, are you going to chide them?

        If so, then you just want those suffering to suffer quietly, or to suffer “the right way”. God forbid they express disdain for the groups oppressing them.

          I think a better question is, do YOU think that Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck, or do you only hate entire groups of people when it directly affects you?

          Hating an entire group of people <> “suffering the right way”

          I hope you becomes less of a hateful person. I’ll leave you to it and hope our interaction inspires others to be less hateful and ignorant than you seem determined to maintain.

          People should be held accountable for their choices and actions. Nobody chose to be born in any country, as a particular race, gender, or any other “group” outside of their control.

          Perpetuating the acceptance of prejudice, however, is a choice.
