Off-Topic Random Trans Thoughts, Musings, and Questions - For all your armchair psych and general sperging

[bouquetnine]

Has anyone noticed a lot of people being fed up with the trans nonsense lately?

Trannies never were popular. They were forced upon us by our (((overlords))) as a humiliation ritual. It really is the culmination of liberal anti-sexism, anti-racism, anti-homophobia style tolerance. "You shouldn't hate them, they're just different!" People can't change the color of their skin but any man can put on a dress and when you start giving them power over others for doing so (or a means to atone for Original Sin the sin of being a White Male), then this is what you get. AGPs and autists turning into crybullies. Even the libtards like JK Rowling can't ignore the risk they create to society.

Spoiler: Bit of PL

Welcome to the farms.
I have LGB and T friends too. They are wonderful people, albeit a little naive sometimes (swallowing leftist propaganda). I want them to thrive and live happy lives. We have to remember the ones featured on this site are the bottom of the barrel.
Then again especially the T among my friends are seriously mentally ill, they stand out in the rainbow crowd like a sore thumb. I see their views as something they desperately cling to to rationalize their delusions. ("I was never happy in my boy body, so I must have a woman brain")
And in a sense, I see telling a friend "you're not a real woman" is like telling someone "you're fat" constantly. It might be true, but you still make someone sad or upset with it. And while I don't support hormones and SRS as a solution to the trans/dysphoria problem, I don't change how this is dealt with when I keep pointing my friends attention to the fact they're "broken".
I can have a critical view on the current state of trans healthcare overall and still be a friend that doesn't have to mention this all the time. My friends are still lovely human beings and I'd hate to see them suffer.
I don't say yes to every delusion the T friends come up with, though. I voice my concerns. But discussing in good faith shouldn't boot you from the group - if it does, you should definitely leave.

If troonery was a conveyor-belt tier working class brainlet thing (I mean those who actually like their job), it wouldn't be nearly as interesting and horrifying phenomenon as it is.
But the working class seems to be somehow more immune to that. I know people with fairly good education and actual observation and critical skills who got deceived. As if sex and gender were the only thing they aren't any rational and critical about (well, sexuality-related things in general are what makes people irrational).

And yeah, there's no point telling a tranny who went all the way and had the amhole installed, that he isn't a woman. Regardless of his regrets or lack thereof and sunk costs, it ain't gonna restore his body and as for the mind, more competent people failed.
I just take it I wasn't there to talk them out of that, I wasn't that important part of their lives, and likely I wouldn't have any power there back then, cos when they went out with it, they were too deep in the delulu.

Weird there's been so many mass shootings of schools, churches, and grocery stores with 90 year old black women but never a mass anything for one of the group meet ups for sex pest homosexuals. except for that one club in like 2015 HMMMMMM

That's what I hear about this place and why I decided to join, I lurked and found some genuinely pretty hateful threads though. Any advice on how to navigate this site for a noob?

Ignore those threads. I regularly come across threads I have no interest in or personally find reprehensible, but that's what happens on a site where anything (legal) is allowed.

I guess, I felt fake when I gave into the cult mentality (not to mention how often I got backstabbed) and I'm still discovering myself and what I stand for, thank you for your advice.

Don't go in the Articles & News section and Autistic thunderdome in general and if you do, avoid its threads that are either directly or tangentially woman-related.

1. HIDE YOUR POWERLEVEL. Keep details about your IRL life that are deeply personal, embarrassing, or may expose your true identity to yourself.
2. If you get called names or slurs, or get negative reaction stickers, don't take it personally. We like to be vulgar and offensive, and break each other's balls.
3. We may have a right-wing bias, but nobody is above criticism. We are equal-opportunity hecklers. Some of our biggest haters have been right-wingers (Nick Rekieta, Nick Fuentes, Ethan Ralph, MTG, just to name a few).
4. Have fun and don't take it too seriously. We're not on some ideological jihad. Think of this site like TMZ or Statler and Waldorf for e-celebs. We're just shitposting retards in the Internet's cheap seats, laughing at the other retards on the field.

Yep, I'm not a mental health professional, so why spoil my friends moods by making remarks that hurt and achieve nothing.
I can't even fault them for starting to take hormones for their problems, because it is an easy way out - like drugs - and legally acceptable to do too. (Yet still fucks their bodies up like drugs.)
Because the alternative would be hard to do - getting to the root of one's problems. It means actual reflection of oneself, and likely on traumatic and hurtful experiences. Much easier to flee your body by taking the girl juice.

So I just do normal friends things with them. I hope, in a sense, I can be a little anchor of normality in their lives so they don't spiral down the dark side of AGP and lolcowery at some point. I hope I can be there for them if they detrans one day, even though I might be overtly optimistic with this.
The ones I know have actual interests and topics besides their trans-identity though, so thankfully it's easy spending enjoyable time with them.

Several people have replied to you already, but I want to throw in my two cents as well:

Don't assume that just because we all share a forum, that this place is a monoculture. This place isn't Reddit and you won't be banned for having the "wrong" opinion. People may disagree, but I never see (non-disruptive) disagreement result in a ban, no matter how unpopular the opinion in question is. There are many people from all sorts of different creeds all across the political spectrum that share this site, and reasonable minds both disagree and find common ground quite often in spite of general differences. Not only that, the place covering so many topics across so many boards means that not everyone is in every thread, and everyone casts a certain Venn Diagram over parts of the site relevant to them.

It might seem gauche at a glance to see threads that seem to be straightforwardly hateful, but something that countermands that in its own way is seeing a different hate thread in the exact opposite direction. Even more than that is seeing the people who frequent those opposite threads powing around and finding common sentiment (or at least coexisting, ignoring, and/or not antagonizing one another) in other unrelated threads. After all, most "hate" against a given demographic on this site in my experience tends to describe the general disposition of a group, rather than necessarily being absolute statements about every individual who shares the label, and I think most people here that would be described externally as -ists and bigots are, ironically, readily willing to make exceptions for exceptional people of those groups who break the stereotypes they dislike, or otherwise have positive qualities in spite of them.

Odds are good that if your opinion has at least some logical robustness, there'll be some folks who agree with it and want to talk about it, and something liberating about "anything is okay so long as it's not illegal" is that when people realize that no amount of rattling the cage will let them get rid of the people they disagree with, they learn to not fuck around in threads that have nothing to do with them.

In short, it's how a functioning society should work. We don't have to agree, but we do have to coexist, thus we gradually learn how to do it as frictionlessly as possible.
