    Do they even support trans ppl tho? It seems very theoretical, like they might call us rue correct pronouns, but anything related to minors, or getting access to HRT, or not being gender segregated by our birth sex in public spaces, and it’s, like…

      Liberals? Lmao, no. Look at how they blame us for election shit, or pass legislation, even in liberal strongholds, curtailing out rights.

      It’s incredibly difficult to have hope.

    Seems more like a lot of the trans support or “trans ally” stuff exists as surface level virtue signalling. Something to make yourself look and feel good without actually changing anything.

    Have neopronouns and it gets so much worse. So few people use My preferred pronouns. It exposes how shallow a lot of support is.

    I remember this one person who hated Me because they disagree with My version of anarchism. They made this drama post where they insisted everyone should respect My gender and pronouns, but they also blamed our disagreement on My personality disorder in this really gross ableist way. Let’s all be considerate and understanding of Vi-! They can’t help being a piece of shit fake anarchist, They have a personality disorder!

    The internet and even leftist communities tend to be a worse place for My mental health than hanging out in meatspace with people I have nothing in common with. I can spend an evening with a bunch of straight cis capitalist meat eaters, and feel more respected than I often do in these online places. Something is wrong on the internet.

    A liberal will make the worst LGB person you know the CEO of a big evil corporation then declare a victory for equality. But even then they wouldn’t extend such a courtesy to a trans person.
