      Is it rly a surprise that people lean further left and further right, into the extreme political right and the extreme political left?

      All I know is I have been called a “leftist” for not wanting to compromise with people who think trans people shouldn’t be allowed to live. At best they want them to live a segregated existence. If that’s “extreme” and “polarized” of me then something is really, really broken.

          Trans right activists have pushed far too strong and too far. Probably as well in a reactionary sense to an extremist right position.

          What does this even mean? Why is there a speed limit on giving people equal rights? What did trans people do to make republicans kick them out of bathrooms and legislate away pronouns?

          I’m not going to bother continuing to respond to your other points. You’re clearly a bigot/transphobic. You think they deserve this.

          It’s not really hard to understand. Gender and sex are different things. Trans rights debates aren’t ignoring biology, because gender has nothing to do with biology (that would be sex).

          In simpler terms, sex is determined by biology - genetics, genitals you were born with, etc., and gender is determined by what an individual perceives themselves to be.

              Ok buddy. You’re thinking way too hard about it. There isn’t an easier way for me to explain it than I have already, so I guess just accept the fact that you’re lost.
