The similarities are blatant and obvious.



If you deny this then you’re just being completely intellectually-dishonest and you’re purposely blocking out information that doesn’t suit your agenda (thus making our argument a complete waste of time). No need to play dumb.



The way that people responded to transpeople in this thread is the SAME EXACT WAY that racist white people respond to blacks online.



Typical Online Racism Scenario:

1. Racist white person brings up a random story involving a black person (or small group of blacks) doing something ratchet.

2. Ends the post with “i’m not racist” to not look like the bad guy.

3. Mobs of racist white people enter the conversation and attempt to associate ALL of most black people with that isolated incident using tired regurgitated anti-black statements. Guilty by association!





Typical Online Transphobia Scenario:

1. Transphobic person brings up a random story involving a transgender (or small group of transgenders) doing something ratchet.

2. Ends the post with “I’m not transphobic” to not look like the bad guy.

3. Mobs of transphobic people enter the conversation and attempt to associate ALL or most trans people with that isolated incident using tired regurgitated anti-trans statements. Guilty by association!



Obviously, there are SOME fundamental differences too (like race being different from gender). However, this doesn’t mean that there’s not still TONS of similarities between the two struggles.



If you still don’t understand what I’m saying then you just don’t have the range to discuss these topics.
