In it you implicate trans-activist who are trans as the problem when irresponsible trans-activism and trans-activism in general aren't specific to trans people alone. Additionally, you implied that the behavior you see as problematic was a mental health issue; that at minimum, it is dysfunctional behavior. So you singled out trans people as being dysfunctional, basically. Though I can't speak for staff. Perhaps instead of whining in a public thread, use the Questions for staff subforum which was designed for just such occasions. Or keep being an idiot. I know you can't help that.
If I call up my friend and tell him he must not buy the new Super Mario or he is being a bad friend and betraying me, am I acting like a rational member of society, or do I need to take a step back and take a deeper look into what about my brain chemistry is making me act that way? Yes, it is fine that a trans person would not personally want to buy the Hogwarts video game, because it might just remind them of the naughty things JK Rowling has said. But considering it a betrayal for friends or allies to buy the game? That's not normal. There is simply no way that you can argue that this is normal. I did not single out trans people. Trans people are being mentioned because this is literally the trans thread. Yes, people of all types do irrational things, of course. I didn't know that needed to be pointed out in every post I make, since this is, you know, a trans thread with said name.
And don't the majority of people, cis or trans, say they are or have gone through mental health problems or depression or anxiety? You act like I hate people that go through mental health issues, which couldn't be further from the truth. I have sympathy for all. Mental health is not brought up as a put down or supposed hate speech. I remember when hate speech used to mean speech by people that actually hated the ones they were putting down. Now it just means you weren't careful enough, which again, is why many leftists like Destiny say they are afraid to even speak on trans issues, because it may just not be worth the hassle and threat level. If you want people to disengage from trans people and issues and only want the echo chamber, that's fine by me. Your forum. I actually thought I was being super nice and careful in my posts, but I guess there is no such thing as being careful when it comes to criticism. You've been labeled a bigot, whatever you say is going to be labeled as hate speech.
