    I know I believe everything I read online. Because if I didn’t, that would make me a bigot. Good and reasonable, totally non moronic talk. Thanks!

      But you must have some way of discerning truth on the internet one way or the other, otherwise nothing could ever be true

        Some dude saying it doesn’t make it true or anyone a transphobe. Absolutely no leg to stand on here.

          Nor does saying ‘i don’t believe it’ make that doubt any more legitimate and any less motivated by transphobic prejudice.

            You’re in earnest arguing that something is transphobic by default since it can’t be proven otherwise. Lol, possibly dumbest thing I’ve ever read online

              Not by default, by explicitly dismissing the minority status of a majority-trans community simply because they don’t fit their expectation of a trans person.

              If that’s the dumbest thing you’ve read online I have some really bad news for you.

                explicitly dismissing the minority status of a majority-trans community

                That sentence doesn’t even make sense with or without the context of this conversation.

                I have some really bad news for you.

                It’s that you’re going to keep one-upping it, isn’t it?

                Take the fucking L and stop reaching for shit. I haven’t yet seen you make any point that stands. All you’re doing is trying to make yourself feel better by saying other people are horrible with the implication you aren’t. Pitiful way to live

                  Just because you don’t understand it? I’ll rephrase it: “explicitly dismissing the trans-status of a majority-trans community”. Better?

                  All you’re doing is trying to make yourself feel better by saying other people are horrible with the implication you aren’t

                  That’s exactly what this community is lol

                    “I don’t believe X” is not necessarily a statement about X. This is a prime example of it. They dismissed no evidence, they simply stated they don’t believe something that there’s plenty of reasons to find unlikely. ✌️
