So is it perfectly fine and reasonable for a transwoman to brandish a dick at little girls who are also nude in a women's only nude space, and a goal of trans activism to make women and girls accept it without objection,,,

Or

Is it something that a right wing religious extremist made up to make transwomen look like predators, to throw gasoline on the culture wars?

Because I really don't see how both could be true. Either you say the transwoman did nothing wrong, or you say, a transwoman wouldn't do that, you're just trying to make us look bad. Either you stand by the action, or you disavow it. Either it's your inalienable right to get your dick out around anyone at all, whether they like it or not, or it's something that was invented in the paranoid fervid imagination of a fascist wingnut.

Make up your minds. It's starting to remind me of the rhetoric around the Jan 6th insurrection. They were just peaceful tourists, and the cops let them in, and it was antifa that broke in and got violent, and no we won't let you investigate!

You’re confused. It is absolutely fine for the trans woman to be there but it feels a bit silly if a specific incident is fabricated. Like no one denies that racially based violence occurs but jussie smollet seems pretty silly if he made up an attack.

No, that's not parallel at all, because I'm pretty sure you would admit that racially based violence is bad. So: it would be a bad thing if it happened, therefore someone makes up it happening as a false flag, whether to make the other side look bad, garner sympathy, whatever. That's not contradictory. But in the Wi Spa case, the trans activist position is that it would be a good thing if it happened, therefore someone made it up as a false flag. Can you see how that is different from your example? Can you see how it doesn't make sense?
