    According to you he stepped out of line for having the audacity to post his thoughts on a platform made for posting thoughts. The truth is it’s not his ego that you have an issue with it’s that one topic.

      Thank you for the keyboard psychology, it’s enlightening. You may, however, need to go back to school for some fine tuning or maybe just wipe the dust off of your magic 8 ball, however.

      It’s his small-minded ridicule on a global platform that I was making comment about. I don’t have an opinion on his chosen topic as it doesn’t effect me in any way.

        Uh-huh. You clearly have some emotional beef with either John or the topic. Since twitter is made for anyone to share their random thoughts there is nothing out of line or arrogant of him using the platform for it’s intended purpose. So we can either accept that you are not bright enough to know what twitter is or we can very reasonably assume that what’s really got you worked up is you don’t like people standing up for trans people…or you have that secret beef with John. You want to frame ridiculing bigots as “small minded”. That’s also telling about you. You do have an opinion on the topic. That’s what caught your eye and compelled you to make your nonsense comments.

              His small-minded ridicule and his ego in thinking that he needed to share it with the world.

                What is small minded about speaking out against bigots? How is it egotistical to post to the world on a platform made to post to the world? You want to attribute those negative labels to John for some reason. Twitter was made for doing exactly what he did so that action isn’t what makes him egotistical in your mind. None of what you are saying makes sense… Unless we add the puzzle piece that you don’t want people advocating for treating trans people decently.

                  If you can’t see a difference between the constructive, informational, thoughtful and educational content he provides in his videos and “please trade lives with me so that I can have your tiny, ridiculous problems”, then you’re his target audience that his tweet was intended for.

                  He could have said anything that added to a constructive point in a discussion. Instead, he just shit on some nameless group of people that he disagrees with.

                    Bigots deserve to be shit on. That they think it is a challenge and a burden to just be decent to trans people is worthy of ridicule. You haven’t made a case for it being small minded. You haven’t made a case for it being egotistical. Don’t do that it’s just a disagreement framing. That’s a predictable tactic that is bs.
