would anyone else like to get demolished today

sure

It's not about that. It's about how them behaving as if me calling OP a he is equivalent to calling a black person a nigger. It's fucked up (I guess) but it's not anywhere near as bad. You're not dehumanizing a trans person by "misgendering". They're still a person, you're not calling them a subhuman. There's a huge difference, even if it can be malicious.

so it's perfectly fine to just to disrespect people as long as you recognize them as a human being at the end of the day

if it's NOT then why even fiddle around with this bullshit, who cares what's more "fucked up"

how can you not see that saying "WOW THAT'S SO DISGUSTING THAT YOU COMPARED SLAVERY TO SJWs" is a fucking bitchmade bullshit way to argue

it has to be some kind of logical fallacy, it almost feels like an emotional appeal because you're allowing your personal outrage and disgust over the comparison to cloud the actual argument being made:

that it doesn't matter how bad it gets, you don't get to say "nigger" without social consequences and there should be equal consequences for not respecting someone's gender identity

you can talk all you want about how "nigger" is worse and all that, but the ultimate point being made is that they're extremely fucking rude and cunty things to do and say to someone, and that's what the subject is

that's the only thing being argued here and you're trying to derail it into something else and it's just retarded

There are social consequences for for misgendering trans people in places and social circles where trans people are accepted. I'm not sure what the point of this thread is at all. To me, there's no point. It's as if everybody needs to accept trans people. Ok, great. And the day after that we'll end world hunger and never fight another war. Do you not see how naive this is?

no more naive than the people in the whatever time period who believed we'd eventually live in a time where all racial, sexual, etc. discrimination will collectively be frowned upon in the future

intelligent people already realize that you cannot quash all bigotry, so we go for the next best thing, which is coming to a point in social progression where racism is collectively and severely frowned upon

and it IS, it IS severely frowned upon to be a racist in this country

you can still BE one, and there are still millions of unapologetic racists out there, but the point is that society doesn't view that as "okay," and therefore, the non-racists have more or less "won" the culture war in the best and most feasible way possible without resorting to violence

now, we're more or less trying to clean up the rest, because we still haven't quite reached a point in america where everyone collectively frowns upon transphobia

it's the equivalent of scrubbing the table of social norms and having your boss come in and say "hey, you missed a spot"

sure, you could just leave the spot there, but that's not doing your job

sure, there are trillions of bacteria that will remain in spite of all the scrubbing, but you still have to do your job, you still have to keep scrubbing because someone's gonna eat there and it's better to get the job done rather than letting the scum fester

tbh Verbatim killed everyone itt

>we all need to be nice to each other

Society is already like this. Like I said, there's no point to this thread or your posts. You and OP are just jacking each other off at how progressive you think you are. Of course you can still be racist. You can also still be a murderer and a rapist. These things aren't going to go away for a long time. It's human nature, that doesn't change overnight because you want it to. That's why this thread is pointless. There's nobody here who even disagrees with the OP.

lmao society isnt already like that

theres tons of places with normalized and accepted bigotry

Every Madea movie released is a violent assault on trans rights

LMAO

I was walking with an old friend when this blonde- maybe 8 year old- kid comes up to him and hugs him or something, and they talk and I'm like "I didn't know you had a son, Casper", and he looks at me like he just got offended . I knew immediately then that I had messed up, but Casper says "this is *girl name*, we go to the same high school", and I just feel like pic related inside

'cause not only is it a she, but she's like 20

This ain't the first time I say he to a little boy, then someone else says she and I die inside either, it has happened way too many times before. I just can't tell the difference sometimes
turns out she was retarded btw, that's why a 20 year old went to high school
