the more im forced to think about breadtube as a whole, the more i understand what the appeal of contrapoints is:
she& #39;s the perfect trans "leftist" if you& #39;re a cis person, she doesnt challenge the cis progressive view of trans people, she ~feels~ radical, but really she requires

no change in behavior from the cishets in order to enjoy her content, she wont get tRiGgErEd if you& #39;re transphobic, she& #39;ll just rebut you, laughing & w perfect hair there is zero hint of queer anger w/in her, she& #39;s ~cool~ w nonbinary identities (but dont worry cis ppl, they
confuse her too), she can manage not to get emotional, to be & #39;objective& #39;, she might not strictly ~agree~ w everyone, but she can manage to get along
she& #39;s the Cool GirlTM, but trans flavoured this time
& cis progressives shower her w praise for this very & #39;radical& #39; approach

natalie wynn actively participates in the right wing culture of "my argument is more valid bc im calm while explaining it" & cis ppl act like she& #39;s some radical bc she can be calm when the real radical thing would be to legitimize passion & anger in the face of bigotry
the cis contra stans licherally proving my point "dO yOu kNoW aNy tRaNsPhObEs" it& #39;s literally not safe for me to be out bc of how many transphobes i know & natalie wynn isn& #39;t going to magically convince them my existence is legitimate
contrapoints convinced cis ppl that they can speak over trans ppl on trans issues bc they marathoned her channel& #39;s content & followed kat blaque on twitter
