    The reason people are getting stuck up on sports and gendered bathrooms is that it’s a wedge issue that can be weaponized to keep people fighting and distracted by culture war nonsense so the focus isn’t on the building of the Orange Reich, a dozen companies contributing to almost all the climate change, and our economic system working to keep us enslaved.

      I think the whole hypocrisy becomes blatantly apparent, when we start talking about transmen. An US veteran transmen made a very nice post i saw many years on reddit. He has a mighty beard and asked, if anyone thinks women feel safer if he is obliged to use their bathroom.

        A trans boy beat up a bunch of girls and felt really bad about it. He wants to compete in the boys’ wrestling league, but the transphobes won’t let him because he has a vagina.

        The future transphobes want is a man in the girls bathroom and a man beating up your daughters.

          There’s a reason terf stands for trans exclusionary.

          They don’t really believe in some bullshit biological essentialism where trans men and cis women are categorised together. They just want all trans people gone. Excluded from society.

          Biological essentialism is just an excuse to be dicks to trans people.

            Yep. Rowling kept up a facade for a while, but even she admits now that she doesn’t even believe trans people really exist. They thing we are confused, malicious, or deluded.
