"Super straight" is a 4chan bigoted anti-trans trolling meme. Period. I don't see any use in indulging their attempt at plausible deniability. It's the same bullshit attitude behind four years of Trumpism.

Seems pretty cut and dry in this particular instance in that if they want to receive public funding for helping women, then they should be using those funds to help all women, not just the ones they deem "eligible" for shelter from rape and homelessness.

Ok, so what you're actually trying to say with this long, waste of time thread is that you are transphobic and don't believe transwomen are women.

The first 10 years of reddit started out pretty great. After 2015, only people who love censorship remained.

Now you're apparently required to believe there can be a female penis, or you're literally a Nazi. How can there be real humans who think this way?

Most days, I'm pretty scared of this world. It wasn't always like this. I agree - reddit was truly a shining beacon of freedom of speech before 2010, really special stuff. I'm far out of touch with these strange meaningless opinion duels that seem to be erupting everywhere, and I'd rather just chill out and play games and read books and be peaceful (on my own if I have to, like today). I guess this world is just getting more and more twisted. I couldn't agree more, it's surreal and off-putting to whatever sanity I may have left in me (sometimes I don't feel it is much). I am truly worried of the ravages of gender dysphoria, I think it has world-ruining potential because of how internal emotions are quickly externalized, falsely attached to others (targets) and then these "inverse witch hunts" happen, like they're looking for someone to murder, as if that will solve their now deeply complicated internal nightmare that they have forced into the world. Frightening shit...

Thanks, you and me both.
