    Take this further, many of them probably wouldn’t think of trans people as real people if it wasn’t for their representation in media. That’s why they take the fight to the treat factory.

      Chuds with an unfortunately wide overlap with weebs (chanlords, mostly) are obsessed with what they call (CW: transphobic weeb word)

      “futas”

      in their hentai treats yet at the same time seem to violently hate actual living trans people. It’s as confusing to me as their obsession with anime characters with vibrantly colored hair while also violently hating living women that dye their hair.

        Right, and those dehumanizing portrayals are challenged by nuanced and positive portrayals in media which is why the chud brain must reject any representation. Honestly, media in general plays such a huge role in shaping social attitudes towards a less visible minority group such as trans people. I’m glad Hexbear anti-treat thought guides us to a dialectical understanding of this issue theory-gary
