I  can spot an anti-trans attack line in the wild

That's the whole point. You can't, but you think anyone who makes a general point is against you. The ridiculous thing about the rabid pro-trans mindset (and I mean people like yourself and not most people who just accept trans people and are happy for others to be whoever they want to be) is that you think everything is an attack and you massively damage the cause by wailing about it all the time, when it's not there.

Delusional paranoia is such an appealing way to be, right? But if it's your chosen path, who am I to argue?

Thank you, for "rabid" and your expert opinion on how we trans folk might best organize and react for our cause of liberation.

If I might offer feedback? Stamping in like a petulant child to tell me I'm an idiot doing things like an idiot does not endear you to me, or make me seriously entertain your opinion. You have angry chihuahua energy. I feel yipped at.

You're welcome. It might help the move things forward a lot more if you actually took the advice instead of crying wolf and using inflammatory language about being "attacked" every time someone makes a general point which isn't even intended or even means what you think it does. It happens over and over again in this debate and it achieves nothing for you except turning people off from an otherwise valid cause.

to tell me I'm an idiot doing things like an idiot does not endear you to me

The fact that you think I care about endearing myself to you or whether you will "entertain" my opinion says everything about your perceived sense of self-importance. Tone it down a bit, get some perspective, stop with the kneejerk persecution complex and you might find people actually take your views MORE seriously.

Honestly shove off, will you? Coming in here giving it the big I am telling me I'm hurting my cause and you think I'm being both oversensitive and overaggressive. I do not carenfor or want your advice. You are a stranger on the internet and you immediately insulted and belittled me in message one. I don't have any reason to believe you're trying to help; I mean, you're clearly not.

There is, I believe, no way for me to be trans and advocate for trans rights you would accept. So why should I care about your uninformed opinion? About your angry, angry, angry yapping at my ankles? You say you don't care if I like you but what, you also expect me to respect some nobody's opinion about how I conduct myself when you walk into my mentions and knock over my drink and wave your finger in my face?

Tone it down a bit, buddy. Get some perspective. Stop with the kneejerk superiority complex, this utter fiction you have of yourself as the last rational man, and maybe people will consider your views at all.
