Conservatives upset about limited edition candy bars that they have never heard of before because of the 5 special edition bars 1 is trans. Why do you make issues out of things you are not fans of?

This isn't something that "conservatives"--and I put that in quotation marks because who even knows what your definition of the word is--are alone in being disgusted by, plenty of people on the other side of the ideological fence are finally waking up and realizing that this isn't right.

And it's an issue because it presents someone who isn't a woman in a way that only women should be presented. It's another glaring example of a cosplayer inserting himself where he doesn't belong.

You aren't getting my point, nobody gave a shit about these limited edition candy bars before, they do now when a transgender person is on them.

They're intentionally going out of their way to piss off conservatives and straight women who enjoy playing the victim, pissing away their and the entire LGBT's social capital in the process.

Just calling everyone who shakes their head at this transphobic is really not making a difference. Might even be accurate when you're referring to the users on this website. Still worthless as an argument, and you're giving their arguments fuel, arguments they can use when they want to do or express something actually hateful. They'll just point to this and countless other examples and say "see??? the libs are gonna call us hateful no matter what, so might as well go all out!!"

So the response to SJWs is becoming your own kind of SJW? Why does everyone think you can fight fire with fire?

Oh no yeah you're right. But they do it because it "works" they just burn everything down in the process. This schism is getting out of hand.
