          Yeah because the plight of transgender folk is just totally not relevant. We’re only allowed to worry about world war 3 and climate collapse. Everyone draws the line of things they consider “worth worrying about” differently and you just happen to draw your line before “the injustice toward marginalised groups”.

              Thank you for verifying the transphobe accusation.
