My mom is trans
She's also the biggest chud ass mf pick-me bitch ever. But she's a shitty person because she's shitty not cause she's trans
I'm sure there are people who use flags online to shield from criticism, but that's a separate issue. You should handle that by just ignoring that whole thing and approaching them as human beings with ideas. Your gender identity doesn't excuse your bad takes and your bad takes don't reflect your gender identity
It's simply not a good shield in this situation, either. The genocide in Palestine is not related to gender in a way that would make supporting it any less abhorrent because of their gender identity. So it's like if a Chinese guy said he hates women then someone says "Wow the way that people use their nationality to hide behind when they make inexcusable statements..."; those have nothing to do with each other! Just criticize what they said!
Exactly, if you run across a bad take with identity stuff attached, ignore that entirely and focus only on the content. If that person then tries to use that identity as a shield for their reactionary takes, continue to ignore them.
The only time this is okay to call out is that weird trend of white guys pretending to be black guys on Twitter. Or the
Trope
