Yes, but showing support like an idiot just feeds into the tranphobe's victim narratives.

You can't reason with someone who wants you dead.

Not usually, but their rhetoric is going to be more effective towards the wider public the more evidence they have of "violent TRAs".

I'm angry, justifiably so. Now isn't the time to tone-police. Liberals aren't meant to lick the boot, and here you are deep-throating it.

No if I was deepthroating it I’d be doing what Starmer is doing. And yeah, it is the time for tone-police, the damn Terfs have the backing of the media and political establishment who will gladly jump at any chance to make you look like a violent misogynist.

They're going to do that anyway. If I get a job, exist in public, or go take a shit, I'm "a threat to women and children".

The argument is OVER. People who have already been indoctrinated into JK Rowling's cult are too far gone but they're mostly Boomers and Gen X who so give them a few decades and most of them will be gone and those who are left will be in too small numbers to do anything.

In the meantime, we've already got a far-right Tory occupying the Labour Party and the next government is going to be either Cyan Nazis or Red Nazis.

The government is, literally, committing a genocide against my community. I'm allowed to be angry about that. Fuck you and fuck everyone else with trans blood on their hands.
