Imagine having 41% of the year dedicated to celebrating and honoring you yet you still pretend that you’re oppressed. ~@robbystarbuck

41%... where have I heard that number before.

I miss when October was about autumn and pumpkins and spookiness.

Didn’t see a day for the plain old gay, unless I’m missing something.

Literally everyone else gets multiple days, but the original flavour, bog-standard, government-issue gays get nothing… I mean they even have a whole week for bisexuals and endless days for troonery and troon-adjacency but nothing for der gaysh.

FFS, the Aromantics get a whole week.

I’m straight, but I’m offended on behalf of all the based friends of Dorothy.

ironically unfabulous gay (CIS HUWITE!!!111) men were ejected from the circle of "people whose opinions count" by the actual radfems before everyone turned against the TERFs at once; and most lesbians don't want to suck off a Chris-Chan lookalike with ED; and unlike the fuzzy world of Corporate Memphis sensitivity-training modules, vaguely-ethnic CalArts beanmouth cartoons, and underlit Disney live-action remakes they're 70% white--how embarrassing!

What is intersex day or remembrance for? I think I could identify as 'agender'

That one is for the people with a genetic disorder (such as Klinefelter syndrome) that the troons love using to justify their own existence as medically valid. Guess someone decided that their favorites props deserve a tiny bit of attention in recognition of their valuable service as shields, stages, and flags for the troons to use as needed.

But 'remembrance'? Are they being genocided too?

Oh yes, absolutely! The genocide comes from the stubborn refusal of normies to accept that these conditions aren't the baseline against which society's standard of sexuality and gender are measured against! Naturally, this affects troons the most--just like women have always been the biggest casualties of war--and anything negative against a troon is genocide.

They have a 100% mortality rate. Every single intersex person ends up dead. Even if they aren't murdered or killed by a discriminatory medical system, eventually even time itself takes them from us. :(

And sure you could say that happens to everyone but 'all lives end' is the genderist equivalent of 'all lives matter!'

They have to keep the pretense up. Partly because it feeds their narcissism to be poor, mistreated victims of that mean, ugly hetero majority that won't just let them live their lives in peace.

And partly because if they ever ease back on it, then all of the benefits that they've been enjoying will come to a stop. No more LGBT influencer lifestyles, no more corporate asskissing, no more Sam Brinton types in high-visibility government positions, and definitely no more (increasingly begrudging) tolerance of outright degeneracy and perversion.

Exactly. Part of being a victim is "never, ever, ever admit you're no longer the victim", no matter how much power you have.

Even if they had white, cishet men thrown into death camps, they would spin it as "look how privileged the white cishet men are. They get a quick death while WE have to suffer through the climate change THEY created and die slowly and painfully!"

and papering over the heavy criticism INSIDE of the spectrum: the intersex say "no, we're MEN, we didn't 'feel funny,' might wanna look up the Reimer twins--and stop appropriating our terms of 'assigned' fe/male"; genderfluidity is of course completely incompatible with dysphoria, and that whole "use our names and let us get a stiffy in the women's room or we'll kill ourselves" doesn't work if you don't have dysphoria (they even say requiring dysphoria's "cruel"); lesbians don't want limp dick, and they don't want it from someone who looks like Chris-Chan and pesters only "cis Gold Star lesbians"; and the gays who aren't farting glitter or throwing dildoes say "you're making us look bad" (spoilsports!)
