Especially the way people seem to be downplaying recent attempts by some in power to make life for trans people harder?

Ten years ago, five years ago, we'd have long 500 post topics about how trans people were being deceptive, or how parents of trans children should be arrested by CPS.

Two years ago we'd have arguments about sports and dating trans people.

Now we're having arguments about whether trans people deserve to continue living in society.

So the arguments have become much more critical, even if it seems like fewer people are participating in direct opposition.

Because we're in a time of trans genocide, the lines are more clearly drawn. If one cannot find it in themselves to fight this genocide, then they will be thought of as anti-trans.

Probably. I wonder how much the neopronoun movement hurts trans acceptance. They aren't the same thing (in my view) but they often get lumped together. Seems like most people don't have a problem referring to people as he/she/they/them but when you throw in non-binary deerkin and birthing-person people start pushing back and rational trans people are put in the crossfire.

so, first: "the neopronoun movement" is not hurting trans acceptance. the people being "turned away" from trans acceptance because some people are kinda weird were not in favour of it in the first place. they're just using it as an excuse. it's quite similar to the "this bernie supporter was kinda rude to me one time, so I'm going to vote for trump now" nonsense from 2016. it's even less based in reality here though, because it's just about people being weird; not even being rude to you.

second: you say that they often get "lumped together", then you conflate neopronoun use (e.g. people who use "xe" or "ze" or "e" or whatever) with people who think they're deer. that's quite disingenuous! and ironic!

What happened then, and what we're seeing now in comparison, is less "I'll vote against them" and more "I won't vote at all", which always favors the oppressor.

Fair first point, I wonder if there's any survey/polling data to suggest one way or another. My statement was purely anecdotal. As for the second point, maybe I'm misunderstanding neopronouns and people who identify as otherkin aren't apart of that movement, but the birthing person thing certainly set off social media a few weeks back. But I do think you'll find more people are open to they/them than xe/xey/thon etc.

Through misunderstanding and presumptions, as well as good old fashioned lies by bad actors.

Socially, no one is calling women "birthing persons". No one.

The term is entirely focused around medical and clinical issues.

There's a reason transphobic posts didn't get anyone banned while I got banned on 2 accounts at once with 1 warning in the history between the two of them. Oh wait, right, mods went against what is supposed to be policy and used my lifetime reputation against me. You know, the one of speaking out in defense of trans people and how it upset other users. In other words, transphobia doesn't get you banned but calling it out can and will be used against you to justify a ban.

The reputation was regarding my pro trans stances.

Compared to the real world this board is much more accepting and pro trans. Thats if you dont include wanting to play Hogwarts legacy...which it really shouldn't.

Although maybe thats relative to how bad things are getting. Either way, besides a few users, most people seem to support trans (even if they played HL).

I had your old account tagged as "brought up guy's dead gf to win argument" so I'm sure stuff like that factored in too.

That isn't what happened, and the same guy in question was accusing a murdered gay man of being a serial rapist based on unfounded local area reddit posts and said the murder was 60/40 the fault of the deceased.

I mean honestly I'm not a fan of Dylan, she feels astroturfed since she's become a spokesperson all over the place less than a year into her transition, and the way she speaks feels like she's just putting on airs for some flawless appearance so it doesn't feel like she's being genuine as a person. Plus the way she speaks makes it obvious she's not faced like, anywhere near as many of the hurdles most trans people do, she obviously came from money and had a ton of doors open to her all throughout her life as a result, so when she speaks about trans issues she's missing the majority of us who don't come from such pleasant backgrounds or have financial stability to help cushion the societal impact of trying to survive when only a handful of states have any ordinances preventing housing or employment discrimination against transgender people.

People shouldn't get a free pass just because you agree with their views on one area. It's entirely possible to support someone's stance on A while still being critical of them on their views on B. Life isn't black and white.

If true that's very shitty of them. Two wrongs don't make a right though.
