This isnt about what i think about trans people. This is what i believe others should be allowed to say about trans people. See the difference?

I also think people should be allowed to express their opinion. So do most people who agree with me.

Well you might have missed the context for your original reply.
@tired_toucan Thinks misgendering should be a bannable offense. I don't. I think people should respect the pronouns, but I don't think misgendering should get people banned.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Yeah it should absolutely be a bannable offence. That doesn’t have anything to do with free speech though. People have the legal right to misgender someone, and twitter has the legal right to crack down on it because it violates the ToS.

Okay. So you dont believe in free speech as a principle then. Only as a legal precedent. Just admit that you like censorship. Why use slippery language and dance around the issue.

(2/2) especially if those people are part of minority groups that tend to have a lot less power and ability to defend themselves against discrimination.

What i am hearing is "censorship is okay when we do it because we know best". And then proceed to explain why you know best.

It’s not censorship if a majority of people using a private platform decide that they don’t want to tolerate certain kinds of speech. That’s just people laying down conditions on using a private space, the same way I’d be kicked out of a party if I went on a racist rant there.

Majority rule is just another form of tyranny.

When it comes to private platforms/private spaces, what’s the better alternative to majority rule?

Standing on principle.

What about the principle of providing a place where people can go to feel accepted for what they are, without discrimination?
