Dude the online trans crowd is the most uncharitable, cruel group I've ever encountered. Had to block a hundred people calling me a piece of shit this morning.

She's not a terf. She wants preferred gender pronouns to be used. She was making claims about how her subconscious evaluates categories. This is not plausibly somethign she can control. Are you telling her to be dishonest about what it's like to be her?

She literally said she wishes she was allowed to tell trans people she doesn't believe their identity is real but she's willing to humor them regarding pronouns. That's not the progressive opinion you think it is.

Who cares if it's progressive? What matters is if her views are true or kind. I think Aella has a skepticism about narratives/identities in general. (This comes from the massive amount of acid she has done.) Are people allowed to have different conceptions of gender?

"Who cares if it's progressive? What matters is if her views are true or kind" the problem here is that they're not either.

Aella thinks people should have the freedom to have rival conceptions of gender just like she thinks people should have rival conceptions of god. She also thinks people should treat trans people with respect. This is a reasonable view.

If that's what you took from the original tweet in question there's no conversation to be had here

Here aella expresses that she has a different theory of gender is, an honest account of how her brain processes categories, and a desire to be kind to trans people. Which part of this do you object to?pic.twitter.com/XlwOb1A75z

The last tweet literally translates to "I wish I was allowed to say 'I think your gender is fake, but I'll humor you to be polite' right to a trans person's face and they would be totally cool with it" like why does she need to say that to people at all??

Aella has a theory of gender being communal not individual. "My gender just is what people say it is." She has a subconscious categorization of ppl. I don't think she wants to mention either of these during casual chats but thinks she should be allowed to be honest about both.

I really feel like you're willfully misinterpreting the original tweet here just to excuse transphobic ideologies.
