"Rachel McKinnon, the first trans athlete to win the women's World Masters Track Cycling Championship, wrote a Twitter post against the creators and the show.
"Im not particularly mad about the South Park episode, she said. Yes its transphobic. Yes its lazy. Yes it contributes to harm to trans women and girls. But theyre lazy and increasingly irrelevant. F***, Futurama made the same stupid storyline in 2003. Transphobes dont have new jokes.

She added: South Park has been deeply transphobic the entire time. This isnt their first explicitly transphobic storyline. It wont be their last. Stone and Parker are transphobes. Write them off. Ignore their lazy show.

Imagine thinking you deserve special treatment from a satirical show that makes fun of every single group of humans available.

Like I cant take anyone seriously who thinks THIS is the line that needs to be drawn for Matt and Trey. Their lazy show takes more effort than these arguments agains them.

I like the story in Futurama was Bender is a piece of garbage for doing it and the entire cast say it's wrong but the lesson she took out of it was "it was saying it's a good thing"

She seems mad that the world is catered to her

Serious question: do transgender athletics have anything to say about what a coincidence it is that so many transgender athletics are winning championships compared to the ampunt of women that are also competing?

She also said a variant of "transphobe" five times.

The two writers are two 40something "Libertarians" who never grew out of their teenage/early 20s

i thought the episode had more nuance than we are giving it credit for

using hyperbole doesn't mean 'we think all people who do this are like this' so much as 'this is what it would take for this conservative rage fantasy to be realistic'

They have discovered a fandom that is the same and have capitalized on it.

Do you know whos actually getting hurt? Female athletes that train their entire life and get beaten by someone that doesnt belong in their category. Those women are being robbed and the trans women that compete against them should be forced to compete against men. Thats reality.

Because they hate women, surely. That is the answer you're seeking, is it not?

The show has gotten some good laughs from me. But its shit like this and the way they prortray elections (the whole turd sandwich thing) makes me wish people would take them off the fucking pedestal already.
