Lol, "Have a look cis people, these are the enemies of trans equality and dignity"
So self-centered.
Instead of addressing anyone else's concerns, they just get mad at you for not supporting
them enough.
Raped by a troon?
WELL YOU BETTER NOT BE TRANSPHOBIC AFTER IT!!!!!!!
Even though some¹ of the same people might be understanding if a woman was scared of men after being raped by a man.
but give that man some eyeliner² and suddenly it turns into a culture-war where people who you would expect to be reasonable just turn into rapist-defenders. It's completely insane.
and yeah, I understand some of their "not like other men" schtick, but then those 'other men' also troon out.
or maybe they're all shitty, and anyone who says they're "totally not like other people" is really the epitome of what they say they hate. I don't know. That happens occasionally.
Sometimes the outward signifiers are different, but their hearts may be the same.
¹ not all of these people really are as compassionate as they say they are.
They might not actually respect it if a woman is scared of men, but they know its 'popular feminist discourse' to accept that. They just wait for the right 'socially acceptable thing' to come along to express their true feelings and then they latch onto it.
To be clear, I don't think it's morally right or wrong to be scared of guys. I think it's a thing that just happens to some people.
Some people are, but they don't want to be.
² oh wait, I forgot its bigoted to imply that any one thing makes someone a tranny. You should go up to every hulking 6'4" man in the bar and ask him his pronouns just to make sure he isn't secretly a woman, in his mind.
If you get punched, you should lecture him for 45 minutes on the sanctity of gender identity.
ANYONE COULD BE TRANS! WE ARE ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL AROUND YOU!
What peak-transed me was realizing that, in reality, a lot of the same people who will make a big conflagration on their social media pages about how "TRANNERS ARE TEH BEST! CISSIES SUCK BALLSACKS!" actually are just normal, greedy human beings who aren't at all altruistic towards their fellow trannies unless they think it will benefit them.
Online, if someone is a tranny but doesn't make it freely-known, then these entitled shitheads will spit fury at them for any minor disagreements, until that person mentions, "um, but I am trans. I'm not cisgender, why are you assuming that I am?"
and then the freaks will act like, "oh, but you're not the right kind of tranny. you're not ideological enough."
So it's not really about gender or anything at all. It's just about having "my club versus YOUR CLUB" and if you're a tranny but you disagree with me you're part of THE EVIL CIS CLUB.
It just reminds me of the Party in 1984.
The Party members are the ones towing the line and throwing all the hurrah everywhere, but any little unconscious step out of the rhythm from any one of them means that THAT PERSON IS FUCKING EVIL! THEY DESERVE TO BE KILLED!
"Zeal is not enough; orthodoxy is unconscious."
It can happen to any one. If you think that you are too smart to ever fall out of line, then Big Brother is looking for you. He sees into your heart. He knows what you are thinking. He knows the private grievances that you keep to yourself, (or even keep from yourself).
He sees everything on the other side of the schism in your mind. Your only hope is to get out of the Party.
The Party's maxims are changing all the time. It is the perpetual building (and simultaneous destruction) of Theseus's ship.
What was once an orthodox commandment is now a symbol of traitorism. It will carry on perpetually. The only thing you can control is yourself.
What do you want to do with your life? You only have so long.
I really ❤ kiwifarms because you guys archive everything.
So someone says, "lmao, I never said that, no one would ever say that. What are you, crazy? We have always been at war with Eurasia."
It's funny going back and reading the forum-posts from like 2013 when this whole crazy ideology was first starting to spread rapidly. There's so many thoughtful refutations that have been made. People have been thoughtful forever. Nothing has changed.
The world ends not with a bang, but a whimper.
