The internet 2.0 helped trans people become more visible than ever. It also gave those who hate us a new way to organize. Proud to give you this piece which weaves my own experience of this past decade into a complicated narrative for trans visibility.https://www.vox.com/identities/2019/12/27/21028342/trans-visibility-backlash-internet-2010 …

You mean hate like the threats endured by Rachel Rooney for writing a children’s book? The intolerance faced by detransitioners who are called liars? The disinformation like “sex is immutable,” that got Maya Forstater fired? The vile things said to JK Rowling for supporting her?pic.twitter.com/5J4YzV6zdS

Detransitioners talking about their own experiences are not showing intolerance to trans people.

I’m glad you agree. I was talking about every time I have been called a liar, a fake and a troll for stating that I’m a detrans woman, and the numerous threads I’ve read wherein other detransitioners have been called the same and worse.

In fairness you’re still arguing in bad faith

I’m not opposed to learning from my mistakes. If you can explain how my argument is in bad faith, I may alter it.

You defended the fans of bigots who are trying to spread violence. There, rethink your life

Who on earth is trying to spread violence? Oh right, the legions of people who said Forstater and Rowling deserve to be harmed for their wrongthink. I'm not the one needing to rethink my life here.
