Not baseless. It was proven in my comment

You proved nothing. You just compared her with religious zealots.

Sorry wrong comment. In any case I didn’t accuse her of bigotry I just showed how intentions are less important than actions using evangelicals as an example.

You said her actions are hurting trans people and compare her good intentions with those of religious zealots. How is that not an acussation of bigotry?

Because bigotry is not required in those situations. I could’ve used doctors who used ECT on patients with mental health issues thinking it would benefit them as the example and the analogy would’ve been the same, i.e. intentions matter less than outcomes.

I don't think you'd have used anti-gay evangelicals as an example if you thought they were harmless. I don't know about other countries, but here evangelicals are very cult-like. The leaders scam their followers doing "exorcisms" and things like that.

No the whole point was that they’re not harmless even if in their minds they just want the best for a person

How are my specific actions causing harm to trans people?

    No, I'm not an activist of any type.
