People here do get that, by and large. There's a difference between trans people and "troons", who are just cynical fetishists trying to profit from social trends. There's a reason that more trans people are comfortable talking openly here than on neogaf.
Well, I am classically defined as a "Troon" because I am a trans goon (thats where the term originated from) but I was bullied, and then straight up banned from that site after a couple years for being too radical of 'truscum' by the main man himself Lowtax

What's saddest of all is that Chloe would have been permabanned from resetera. An outspoken self-loathing tranny with medical and mental health issues and a shitload of passion for the things she feels are important? We've seen what resetera does with those.
Not to my knowledge, no. They'll also excuse that with the same excuse they use with Asian countries; I think the ones who don't spout that kind of rhetoric for narrative reasons are dumb enough to believe that Africa was a paradise where everyone got along before the Europeans showed up.
Well, I mean, as much as the cult of social justice wants to pretend that everything was going great in Africa until the evil white men came and started kidnapping all the poor, sweet, innocent black people they found, that's not exactly what went down. A big part of the slave trade was all about rival tribes selling each other out, but this pretty much never gets mentioned. I guess it's some sort of atonement bullshit, like how now nobody mentions anymore how some of the Indian tribes were actually quite violent long before whitey showed up in America. Life is never black and white, but some aspects of history (in K-12 anyways) sure wants to pretend it is.
They were also on the brink of perfecting iron when the Spanish showed up. So much as 50 years later and that fight may have gone very differently. One of my formative sci-fi books (by legendary asshole Orson Scott Card - I already know) explored the possibility that white civilization, with all the tremendous faults that carries, was preferable to an alternate timeline where the Aztecs got seriously out of hand.
