So this is a bit off topic, but does anyone else find this new "Trans Rights Are Human Rights" slogan of theirs kind of off putting and creepy? Like at least the "Trans Women Are Women" slogan actually means something, even if it doesn't really make sense logically when you think about it. But "Trans Rights Are Human Rights" doesn't even mean anything. Like wow, they're human rights? Gee, that's such a relief, I thought they were panda rights or fucking microbe rights or something. What the hell does that even mean?

TRAHR is a phrase that literally means nothing and yet people are spewing it out like it's a fact as clear and self-evident as "the sky is blue". It creeps me out.

Trans people (in America and other western countries) already have human rights. When you ask them what rights they don't have, they get angry and start screeching. Just asking that question gets you labeled a transphobe, and they won't give an answer.

It reminds me of the social experiment where someone walked around a college campus getting people to sign a petition to get dihydrogen monoxide banned. They got plenty of signatures. dihydrogen monoxide is another way of saying H20 - water. People are gullible and their heads are so far up their asses that most of them don't realize they are being manipulated. You imply that trans people don't have human rights, and they go "OMG! That's awful!" without sitting back to think for two seconds, "what human rights do you all not have? I know you're too stupid to figure out where to piss without making everyone around you miserable, but what else? what other rights are you missing out on? And by the way, getting to piss in the same room as the sex you wish you were is not a human right."

Meanwhile there are billions of women, children, and yes, even men around the world who really don't have human rights. Like literally people who are sold into slavery, married off as child brides, female genital mutilation (and I'll throw male circumcision in there too. A human should be allowed to chose this for himself. that should be a human right) etc etc.. But we're too busy catering to these drama queens and their delusion that they are entitled to access to any woman they want at any time they please and that is their "human right."

Legit had this argument with a friend irl a few weeks ago. In America, what legal rights don’t trans people have? Every thing they’re complaining about now is wanting privileges that step on others’ rights and autonomy.
