I try so hard to be patient with these kids online, I know most of them will grow out of it eventually. But do you know how often I have to see teenagers be horny for a slave owner while harassing abused trans lesbians (fictional but more importantly real ones) because we (1/?)
have to defend ourselves in such a careful and specific way because our words are twisted and taken out of context entirely and made to make us seem like we& #39;re the ones in the wrong. We shouldn& #39;t have to explain the same shit to people over and over again.
I try to be as reasonable as possible, but these people will constantly move the goalposts to be in their favor even though they know they& #39;re wrong. They& #39;ll screenshot people that removes context and feel right because other people agree with them.
Every day I see trans women called simps and likened to perverts because they like a character and don& #39;t like seeing them be mischaracterized because they see so much in a character that is canonically a trans woman. We don& #39;t see this with any other character.
But when I see these same people who are mad that this character abused another character go and love an adult man who owns slaves and was written to be a terrible and abusive person intentionally I lose most if not all sympathy for the people who make up lies about us.
When I see these people complain about discourse despite them ALWAYS trying to start up stuff with disabled trans lesbians online, calling them ableist for doing a sarcastic meme about a fictional character, being ableist towards them and trying to fire them from their fucking
jobs because they disagree with them? I can& #39;t stand those types of people. They don& #39;t deserve any of my patience but I try anyway. And I almost always fail because these people are completely blind to reason besides what they read online once.
I& #39;m so sick and tired of these people harassing trans women and not focusing their attention towards the ACTUAL people who are our oppressors, who wish for our d*ath and put us through so many horrible things.
I& #39;ve been vocal about this for so long but NOTHING changes no matter how hard I try, you don& #39;t give a singular damn about us.
