I find that most transphobes suffer from pronounced sense and intelligence deficits.
Definitely. I’ve seen transphobes think they’re playing 4D chess by calling other people transphobic if they dismiss their “b-but what about transracials and attack helicopters!!” arguments lmfao
It’s not about being right. It’s not about having questions or concerns. It’s about wasting your time.
Why should it be subtle? The main idea was to make it obvious. It was an analogy attempt.
Except that it is 100% a bad-faith “question” and it’s only a clever work-around to people that are too stupid to understand nuance. It’s the transphobe equivalent of “checkmate, atheists” and it’s not worth a damn thing.
Yes, the logic behind the phrase is questionable, but it perfectly explains why it isn’t “subtle” – it never even meant to be.
