When your cohort decided to politicize a hitherto uncontested simple recognition of reality and leave that common ground, I'm not going to blush at who still stands there in a thinned crowd.

This is a pretty big part of why people link you to Nazis. It's on account of you standing there in the thinned crowd, shoulder to shoulder with....Nazis. You know, the ones who famously burned the archives of the Institut fur Sexualwissenschaft? Those Nazis?

I see my words are wasted on you. No, the reason you link us to Nazis is for easy rhetorical advantage. It makes no sense, but it helps shut down debate. Ironically of course the politics I encounter from your side si deeply authoritarian and controlling.

The very first act of organized violence the Nazis undertook after ascending to power was an attack on trans people and transitionpic.twitter.com/pudMjoavZ7

I'd hazard a guess that the modern concept of transgender wasn't around then. Surely the word wasn't? Interesting to know they did that, makes sense they'd go after non-conforming sexuality, the bastards. Just has nothing to do with me, my beliefs or this debate.

The modern concept of transgender has been around a lot longer than most people think, because the Nazis and those like them burner most of the research and literature done on them up to that time and set the public's knowledge of the issue back decades.

Also just like gravity existed before Newton, trans people have been around since long before the modern concept of transgender.

I disagree. People are defining themselves by an ideology. It's disingenuous to ascribe adherence to that ideology before it existed. Striking similarities certainly, but the same phenomenon was explained under a prior ideology. Such as the prior AND current one I hold.

Nothing I said mentioned an ideology.

Substitute 'modern concept' then, it's what I mean.
