    That's litteraly why it's a problem, because they have huge media support when they're 00000,0003% of the population. Why the fuck is that ?

    Well, that's a complex issue. The thing is, they do and don't actually have that support at the same time. You see, it's not trans people who get to decide what to do with this support, nor it's for them to use it so they can speak their voice. No, this is just for TRAs to use.

    TRAs are effectively using trans people as fuel for their political engine. They don't really care when someone is transphobic, because they don't care about trans people. But someone daring to spill transphobia is a clear sign that someone dares to mess with them. And that's a real problem for them and their egos.

    And how it is LGB people fault, and how are we "dumb" to point out and make fun of their asses when they're out there calling us transphobe at every turn because we're not that much into them. Oh and let's not forget the "genitals fetish" we apparently have that they love to point out, and learn children to call us that.

    This entire point is dumb, because like you said, trans people are a very tiny minority. Because of that, most of us haven't even met any trans person in real life. It would be physically impossible for them to be so active on the internet – and they're not that active. It's often just straight, "cis", white, privileged {yada yada} TRAs who get power trips from pushing ridiculous ideas on our behalf. Can you imagine the boner you get (well, you're a female, so you don't, but whatever...) when you succeed at forcing people to respect that some dude has a "tree" pronounce and if you don't respect that, you will lose your job because woke crowd will be screaming at your boss in social media?

    So yeah I get your point but blaming us for not "being smart enough" is pushing it because you can sweet-talk them all the way to Mars if you want to, the day you try to point out one little negative aspect of their behavior they'll eat you alive.

    It's not about sweet-talking anyone. And don't expect me to believe that you're stupid, I know this community is better than that. You expect the platforms to ignore your blunt transphobia, calling trans people "t-slur", laughing at their suicide statistics, etc. while reacting to homophobia. That's not how it works, champ. Both communities deserve protection. If you choose to say degenerate things about them, you will get banned.

    And you can always oppose to the TRAs without bashing innocent trans people.

      So yeah my dude I get the whole "poor innocent trans people thing" but come the fuck on ? You can't expect people to play nice when you're being a dickhole to them every day of the week.

      That's precisely my point. Are you just a dickhole to them? To the said trans women? Or to blue haired straight teenage girls TRAs?

      Bashing trans people for whatever TRA retards are spewing is exactly what I meant as "dumb". It only helps trans communities to enforce the feeling like there are so many people hating them for no reason.

      Plus, the whole "it's only on the internet" is A) bullshit because let's be real we spend way too much time on our phones/computers so it does have an impact

      Fully agreed, I always find that argument retarded, just like the "it's just a small number of far-right trolls" that are somehow able to shut down entire subreddits.

      they're voting laws, and for instance destroying women's sport/closing our shelters, so I think I'll bring my sympathy elsewhere (for pandas for instance) , unless they do something about their collective shitty behavior. So don't start blaming us for the 4 frustrated gals and dudes out there who once said "TW are not women", goody two shoes.

      With that, I also fully agree. I actually agree with vast majority of views people have on this subreddit, just that need for frustration relief by bashing often innocent trans community annoys me, especially when it's harmful to our own cause.
