Perhaps a bit too much. Trans rights are human rights, but their rights shouldn’t impede the rights of others. No, I don’t have specific examples, I just think this is a good general rule. If no impeding is happening, we don’t have a problem.
What rights could they be impeding on by existing, taking up space, and not wanting to be discriminated against for doing so. Because the rights of the individual stop when it affects the rights of the other. A concept that mainly affects the religious, who are also the group most lost to the concept. That and white supremacists.
Probably some sort of a clashing of bubbles that’s due to social media being a broken thing. We are all imagining our own version of what is being reported and what people are saying and then extrapolating from that the character of the other people talking.
My fault obviously for entering the discussion in the first place. I wasn’t trying to even accomplish anything, just procrastinating. It’s not as if anyone’s gonna change their minds based on these discussions. Everyone’s just trying to “win” them, whatever the fuck that means.

Exactly my point as well.

I don’t need to present examples for this (= rights should not impede rights) to be a valid general position. Not everything is a dog whistle.
If it’s a generality, why bother bringing it up about trans rights? That’s why commenters are saying it’s a dog whistle.

sigh Of course it is.
But that doesn’t happen?

I’m sure I could find a situation where it has indeed happened, but that would only serve to further incite hatred. I don’t want to do that.
I’m talking about general principles here.
