When everything is “violence”, anything is violence. I feel that the snake is finally starting to eat itself though, at last.

And when everything and anything is violence, actual violence is erased or diminished.

Totally. And that’s the shitty thing about all this crying-wolf: actual victims get shuffled under the feet of TRAs shrieking about the daily murder/ rape/ violence toll on trans people. As if no other lives of importance are lost or ruined to violent crime or hatred. Pretty sure on the old sub, there was a 2018 DoJ report on hate crimes and gay men were at the top of the list, with trans women down at the bottom. (And lesbians, mercifully enough, were the lowest and least affected for once.)

"But gay men have did privilege, do it's not as bad as trans women and trans men being victims."
