I don’t care if the depicted woman is being transphobic. I don’t care if she is being hypocritical about body modifications. I do not care that she is part of a fascist cult*. You don’t make fun of that shit for exactly the same reason it sucks when libs become transphobic against shitty trans people. It’s about setting a standard. You don’t make fun of people’s bodies or use them to score political points.
The reply to the top most comment should give be sufficient to tell you how the libs are treating this (combine that with their track record of being transphobic against people they don’t like).
*if only unfunny comics could fight fascism. Trump wouldn’t have made it past 2015.
Libs really think that being sexist/racist/ableist/queerphobic/etc is fine if it’s for a ‘good cause’. No understanding of the underlying oppressive systems they’re reinforcing through their bigotry.
There are so many reasons I hate this comic I had to make a separate comment.
-
Literally all that had to be done to make this comic 10 times less terrible was to point out the millions of other unnatural things about humans instead.
-
Medically transitioning people are very unnatural. I’m injecting hormones weekly and altering my biochemistry at a fundamental level. That’s more unnatural than physical implants. It’s easy for any transphobe to pick apart this comic by arguing about the levels or type of unnaturalness.
I couldn’t bother to write more than 2.
- It normalizes bullying people for their appearance, which is especially harmful to trans people, ironically.
