I don't think it's fair to say I wouldn't say the same thing if the lashing out was directed at trans women. That's coming from you, not me.

I'm not going to tolerate someone causing greater isolation and pain to others because of their own problems, especially when it is perfectly clear that said someone is primarily motivated by bigotry than hurt.

I accept that. I'm not going to fight with you bc you've certainly done nothing wrong here. If you think I have it's not something I agree with but I hear and accept it's how you feel.
