You forget that this started because you chose to belittle someone else's problem because you felt yours mattered more.

Yep. I have little sympathy for her being afraid of not getting invited to parties when people are trying to deny my rights.

Her fear was of being "labeled." Ok, that's legit. My fear is of being assaulted in a bathroom. That's worse than labeling.

So yep, on a scale of human rights offenses, I do think that state violence matters more than social ostracization.

Now it's state violence? You must be tired from moving the goalposts around this much.

The revocation and restriction of civil rights to groups has long been considered state violence. No goalposts moving.

Calling nonviolent acts "violence" is a great way to get people to stop caring. FYI.

This is actual tone policing now. But if you want a logical argument, denying bathroom access causes physiological damage.

No. It's language accuracy. Trying to magnify your plight by asserting that everything done to you is violent is inaccurate.

Not everything. But this is an established social justice position. And not a controversial one.
