1- Voting against trans rights isn’t the only type of transphobic behavior and getting people to vote in favor of trans rights won’t fully get rid of transphobia.
We need laws to protect people who are trans from trans phobic behaviors and laws. Voting is how you accomplish that.
2- It seems like you’re the one that’s not understanding, if you focused less on tone policing and more on reading you’d see that their response makes perfect sense to yours, the tone doesn’t change or erase that.
I’m not policing. I’m suggesting a strategy to actually accomplish goals. Being aggressive towards people isn’t going to help even if the aggression is justified.
3- Nobody who wasn’t transphobic to begin with needs to be convinced to not be it, queer people don’t need to perform niceness in order for them to deserve rights and presentability politics is the devil’s advocate of bigotry.
This is how I know you didn’t actually read what I wrote, because. I explicitly said that the bigots can’t be turned and that people have every right to be angry over transphobia.
1- And how does that address what i just told you in the slightest? also no, voting isn’t how you accomplish that, what’s in the law or not barely stops people from changing their behavior.
2- Yes, you are. You don’t need to repeat your argument at me because i understood it just right the first time. Have you maybe considered that people are tired of being discriminated against, have feelings and might not be trying to educate anybody? not every rightfully angry response at transphobia is a failed attempt to calmly educate a bigot.
3- I did actually read what you wrote, just because you don’t like what’s being told to you doesn’t suddendly mean that we didn’t pay attention or didn’t understand you.
