Measured compared to the full throated support she’s received from others, yeah. To be clear, I’m not defending his position, or hers. I think I even said that his argument was based on the false premise that trans rights are somehow at odds with women’s rights.

I guess maybe I’m just in the bargaining stage of…

As seems to be the case with this article, he was at least slightly measured in his response re: Rowling. But he falls prey to the bad faith both-sidesism that allowing trans folks to “live full, accepted lives, according to their terms, in society” is somehow at odds with women having “all the rights and dignities…

How many of those genocides are being bankrolled by US taxpayer dollars? 

The only person I ever wanted to be when I grew up was Steve Albini. What a loss. 

I’m probably showing my age here, but it seems like a massive oversight to have an article about Tarsem that doesn’t mention “Losing My Religion.”

Recast, or don’t, but PLEASE don’t use “archival footage” or AI to plug the character in long enough to die heroically or some shit. The Rise of Skywalker had A LOT of issues, obviously, but their “Fallout Boy” approach to “honoring” Carrie Fisher’s legacy pulled me out of it from the jump.

Only thing I could find was someone commenting on the fact that he and John Cena are still in touch with Vince after the allegations came out, but not that he was directly implicated. 

Interesting study. Sorry, I misunderstood your original statement, I took it that you were saying that 90% of those that transition choose to detransition, which is basically exactly opposite of reality. But yeah, looking through that study, which had 139 participants and covered a time period of 34 years (~4…

Cool stat, 90%. Reply with your source, or don’t reply. Thanks!

“I was a dysphoric child. I am so glad adults like you weren’t around when I was a kid.”

I imagine it was bullied out of you. Sorry that happened. But you can end that cycle now, if you choose. 

Pgoodso said it better (and with far fewer expletives) than I could, so I’ll leave it there.

Amazingly consistent, if nothing else. 

“they purposefully inflate murder statistics using highly at-risk demographics”

*ahem* Did you read my post? That link is about murders only. It does not do anything to refute a claim about all instances of violence. And even your source concludes that “the homicide rates of young transfeminine Black and Latina…

Brazilian prostitutes, jesus fucking christ. Can y’all even hear yourselves?

“AYE WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE SCREENSHOT OF PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET BEING ASSHOLES?”

Yes, people on the internet are assholes, present company included. They also don’t represent the real world, which is the place where trans folks are at FOUR times higher risk of being the victims of violence when compared to ALL…

Christ, you TERFs are so credulous. No one is bullying women, especially not the women I know who back trans rights to the hilt. No one is sterilizing children, especially not the parents and doctors who spend years in therapy and careful observation, slow walking social transition. I know you’re just some piece of…

“JK Rowling isn’t behind on this issue, she’s ahead.”

“ I can’t cut her out of my life.”

Having had extensive experiences with religion and psychiatry, I can say with some confidence that the latter is a helluva lot more effective, generally, than the former. 

Seriously. I know he can afford therapy.
