Can we start a “No one cares what your gender identity is pass it on” trend? Because that’s 99% of gender politics debates summed up. No one cares. You don’t need to beg and scream for validation. No one cares!

That's just the problem to TRAs. They need other people to care, even and especially people who don't care. They actually prefer if someone has a diehard anti-trans position. That means, in a way, that the person cares about the topic. It is validating even in its hostility. The worst thing to TRAs is when a person honestly does not give a shit about their gender identity. It implies that things OTHER than gender are more important. That is terrifying to TRAs because they have wrapped up their entire identity, ego, and sense of self-worth into their phony gender identity. When someone honestly does not care, that is the most invalidating thing there could possibly be. It says, "Hey, that isn't important. How many languages do you speak? Play any musical instruments? Educated in any arts or sciences? No? Oh, but you're really into gender? Sorry, I don't give a shit about fake things."
