I think once you realize that the world hates you for trying to be happy, you hit a fork in the road:
Turn back the way you came. Blindly hope the modicum of liberal “acceptance” will last long enough that you don’t suffer at the hands of extremists. Get frustrated with libs who tokenize you and see you as more of a pet minority than a person. Accept it anyway as the best you’ll get.
Veer right. Adopt an aesthetic of “no wait, I’m actually one of you, see?” While putting on a cute nazi uniform to blend in with the colonizers. Most of those people seem to be desperately looking for affirmation that they’re not horrible d—nerates and will pressure others into their aesthetic.
Veer left. Buy 200% into Communism/Anarchism after reading a bit of revolutionary feminist literature or internet posts, because it looks like the only path you can take that’s not a soulless, suffocating, status-quo violence machine.
At least once a week I see a new “trans people ruined feminism”, “trans people are invading our public spaces”, “trans person attacked outside of bathroom”, “trans people want to molest kids”, “embarrassed chud murders trans girlfriend after being seen with her in public.” It really wears you down after a while.
Huh I never thought about that but it makes perfect sense.
I like seeing people post these pics lol. It’s good to see people feel accepted in this space. My post was meant to be read like: it’s such a random thing for a seemingly serious topic.
Hope I didn’t offend anyone as it was not what I meant.
Sucks to still see this much hate against trans people.
The other sad thing is you know that, on some level, THEY know this. You will never see one of them at some fash gathering, some proudboy parade, because they know if they were there they’d be harassed at the very least. Probably assaulted. Potentially worse.

Nah, I was never offended, I think it’s kinda cute (generally) when cis people act like they’ve stumbled into a forest of magical woodland critters.
