    I didn’t realize TERFs often compared trans-species delusions to transracialism.

        It’s close because it… includes a comparison to transracialism somewhere?

        Is any comparison to transracialism in any context TERF now? Because that’s the extent of the argument being presented.

        Fucking ridiculous. Just throwing out labels and badjacketing in the hopes that it’ll stick.

          No, because the weaponization of race as a point of comparison to gender is done so specifically because of it’s historical context - even though it is just as much of a social construct.

          It’s apples and oranges, but if apples had been enslaved on the basis of not being bananas for centuries, and oranges were being accused of not being a real fruit at all.

          Get over yourself. It’s not for you to decide what identities are legitimate or not.

            Everything is a social construct, genius.

            The fuck.

            Get over yourself. It’s not for you to decide what identities are legitimate or not.

            No, that’s for you and your ilk to decide, of course, and to call anyone who disagrees fascists and transphobes.

              I haven’t called you a transphobe, at worst I accused you of being exclusionary, which as far as I can tell is actually what you are trying to be

                No, you just JAQ off with innocent statements like “Isn’t that what TERFs say???” with absurd points of comparison, like “You mentioned transracialism”

                  Given your exclusionary rhetoric I think it’s an apt comparison.

                  Maybe deal with your own prejudice instead of seeking validation in these silly support groups.

                    Goodness gracious, how dare I exclude other species

                    Maybe deal with your own prejudice instead of seeking validation in these silly support groups.

                    Yeah, I’ll seek support for my possumphobia. I’m sure my therapist will be shocked and appalled that I don’t think that human beings can be possums.
