Bluemaggots say things that help build the argument for my extermination because they're worthless fucking opportunist cowards that don't stand for anything. I'm sure, in their heart-of-hearts, they don't even care about trans issues one way or the other.

However, that won't stop them from "reaching across the isle" to vote for it in a big bipartisan compromise to show how reasonable and moderate they are; they'll trade away my rights for idk canceling up to $20,000 in debt for Pell Grant recipients who open a business in a disadvantaged community and operate it for at least three years. Either we nominate a progressive or I die.

Every single Democrat that supports any form of gender segregation supports sending me to men's prison.

    Well, I was trying to give you a hope for an out but I guess that's a no go.

    I'd rather you didn't kill yourself.

    I already have hope for an out; we nominate a progressive.

    It's September 29. AFAIK most, if not all, of the primaries are over now. Either you got your ideal candidate or you didn't, but either way, there's only one way to keep the guaranteed-to-be-trans-genocidal Republican out of office at this point.

    I said 2028 in my original comment, didn't I?

    Also I notice you used "ideal" as if not wanting to be r*ped and murdered in men's prison is idealistic. That's the bare fucking minimum. If you nominate a candidate that supports the ideology for my genocide, I'm not sticking around to see how it turns out.

    IDGAF about your fig-leaf; this thread is about 2026. That one sentence may have mentioned 2028, but don't try to pretend you weren't speaking more generally in the rest of your comments.

    Also I notice you used “ideal” as if not wanting to be r*ped and murdered in men’s prison is idealistic.

    Fuck off with putting words in my mouth. I used "ideal" as in "better than the alternative" -- WHICH IT IS! -- and you know it. You are not fucking entitled to attack me for your own hyperbolic interpretation of some imagined different word that I didn't say!

    If you nominate a candidate that supports the ideology for my genocide,

    Do you realize that, by being incredibly accusatory and hostile to people who are trying to be your allies, you're only making the worst outcome for yourself more likely? Don't blame this shit on me!

    Here's the real bottom line: even if your 2026 Democratic candidate isn't pro-trans, some candidates in other jurisdictions are. For there to be any hope of protecting trans people those other pro-trans Democrats need to be able to form a coalition with the rest of the party powerful to stand up against the Republicans. By refusing to vote and denying them that coalition, you are actively harming other trans people. Where's your motherfucking solidarity, qomrade?!

    Gender doesn't excuse being disingenuous. What would you have me do, treat her differently because she's trans? What are you, sexist?

    I'm sorry that you're upset by my lack of sexism.

    it is reasonable and compassionate to treat an oppressed minority with grace, even - especially - when they criticize their oppressors. being "accusatory and hostile" is a normal, expected reaction to lifelong persecution. putting extra effort into engaging compassionately is moral even if you disagree with them.

    it is reasonable to expect this from you.

    when you frame this - extending grace to an oppressed, suicidal woman - as "sexist," you are flattening gender relations into an imaginary "all lives matter"-esque concept where all genders exist under the same conditions. this is literally an anti-feminist dog whistle of men's rights activists.

    you should treat her better because society is biased against her and has instilled that bias into you. you are obligated to correct for it.

    this means you do not fucking tone-police the oppressed.

    She attacked me. She delusionally tried to lump me in with her oppressors just because I used the word "ideal," for fuck's sake!

    So no, it is not fucking reasonable to expect me to shut up and take that abuse just because of her gender! What the fuck is wrong with you?!

    you are flattening gender relations into an imaginary “all lives matter”-esque concept where all genders exist under the same conditions. this is literally an anti-feminist dog whistle of men’s rights activists.

    I am really getting sick and tired of being libeled like this. I am the furthest thing from a goddamn MRA!

    But you know what's really a dog-whistle? Your white-knighting! Everything about my response to her was about the content of her speech, not some kind of gendered criticism of her as a trans person. You're the one who brought that into it.

    this means you do not fucking tone-police the oppressed.

    Self-defense is not tone-policing! You do not fucking bully people who are already being attacked!

    She attacked me

    no she didn't. you are having a conversation on the internet.

    She delusionally tried to lump me in with her oppressors just because I used the word “ideal,” for fuck’s sake!

    no she didn't. she said that you were framing a lack of transphobia as an ideal rather than a floor by using the word ideal.

    I used “ideal” as in “better than the alternative”

    no you didn't. you couldn't have. ideal doesn't mean that.

    I am really getting sick and tired of being libeled like this. I am the furthest thing from a goddamn MRA!

    no one called you an mra. i pointed out that you were using an mra dog whistle.

    You’re the one who brought [gender] into it.

    gender isn't some vampire that's only relevant to the conversation once someone invites it in, it is a societal force that we live within. it is always relevant. this is basic feminism.

    Self-defense is not tone-policing!

    this is not self defense because you are not being attacked. you are having a conversation on the internet.

    Do you realize that, by being incredibly accusatory and hostile to people who are trying to be your allies, you’re only making the worst outcome for yourself more likely? Don’t blame this shit on me!

    this is tone policing and victim blaming.

    attacked

    delusional

    abuse

    self-defense

    bully

    attacked

    it seems like you aren't differentiating between what someone says about your ideas and what they say about you. it also seems like you aren't differentiating between feeling attacked and being attacked.

    You can't use a dog whistle unless you know it is one. You didn't say "writing something that resembles a dog whistle," you said "using" it, which implies intent and is therefore an accusations of being in that group.

    it seems like you aren't differentiating between what someone says about your ideas and what they say about you.

    No, that's the entirety of what I'm doing. In reality, I was scrupulously careful only to address the argument, not the person, while you're insinuating all sorts of heinous lies about me. Fuck off with your DARVO bullshit!
