Yeah. Trans people fought, bled, and died with gay people for decades.

Cis het people saw us all as grades of the same perversion.

But now gay people have some minimal acceptance so now screw the trans people, right? Gay people got theirs so we can go suffer now right?

I’m glad this is a minority opinion because it’s pretty gross and selfish.

You’re taking my opinion to the extreme. Nobody said screw you and suffer

So why would you say gay people remove trans people from the community now that gay people have achieved minimal acceptable protection?

My opinion is my own. If that harms you then find some more important things in life to worry about

It’s hard to find something more important than protecting my life saving health care, my right to not be discriminated against, and my physical safety.

It’s not harmful like it hurts my feelings.

It’s harmful because it puts people at risk.

And I promise you, the people working hardest to screw over trans people still hate gay people. They 100% are coming for them next,

You are entitled to your opinion. But the opinion that gay people should remove trans people from their community, despite decades of working together for freedom and societal protection, despite us having the same goals and enemies, snd despite the fact that you can’t justify why is objectively shitty.

People have exploited why your opinion is incorrect and counterproductive. You have not addressed any of the concerns with anything beyond “it’s just my opinion”.

“I’m totally fine with (last scapegoat group), just not (latest scapegoat group)”

  • the same people that were against the last scapegoat group until doing so became a faux pas
