Oh and the Nazi comparison is highly apt

It's not, and it won't be until someone comes along and commits literal genocide, so with any luck, it will NEVER be, hence the rule. Talking about the sins of the nazis and how they affected you is very different from claiming that is equivalent to any form of hate any community recieves today. My mother is quietly homophobic, it's not a good thing, but she's not a Nazi, nor would any comparison be "apt" in any way.

Great to know that I can't call eliminationist people Nazis until they actively start killing trans people, I'm sure it'll be very useful when the time comes x(

When pressed you had to admit that GC isn't calling for anyone's elimination, it's just that you imagine that trans people will kill themselves if they don't have access to cosmetic surgeries and synthetic hormones. Now you're back to this rhetoric that we want to "eliminate" you and we will eventually "actively start killing trans people" as if we didn't all witness your admission and you will probably go forth from today telling people that GC wants to kill trans people. Maybe no one wants to talk to the other side anymore because of shit like that. It's intellectually dishonest.

I said that to not get banned, trying to respect Beris' rules x(

Okay well I'm not imagining anything. I will kill myself if I don't have access to hormones or SRS at some point. Do you need it in a contract?

Maybe no one wants to talk to the other side anymore because of shit like that. It's intellectually dishonest.

Also dishonest to say that some GCers like Joyce don't think of us as a disease or a problem to be solved because it's pretty clear they do. It's hard to talk to people who continually say that nothing is wrong and that trans people aren't in danger.

Not to burst your bubble, but even if it were to come to that, you not being able to say that kind of thing in a debate sub with 10~ other active people will likely have 0 impact ever. The rules exist to facilitate debate. I'm not policing your language, im policing your language HERE.

Is it still the case that there are zero QT mods? Lol. (Peaking isn't QT iirc, last I checked they were very transmed)

I came back here because I've been really worried about where things are headed, but if it's really important, sorry I'm sure I can find more descriptive words that won't be against that rule.

Even though, I've gotten more and more convinced that this discourse has moved past the point of any debate, idk.

There are no qt mods. Technically there is one but theyve been MIA forever. Im neither GC nor QT. I'd say I even probably am slightly more lenient to qt posters, just because it's literally you vs the world, but I can't really excuse word-for-word rule breaking.

I edited the original comment, let me know if I should edit more, sorry

Also yeah, that's what I thought, that's how it's been for a while. I still mod the server for the subreddit but I don't go on there anymore lately because it's become very toxic. I don't think most ppl r very interested in talking to the other side anymore x(
