As a sufferer, it's true. It's very real. I can't argue with your ridiculous post any more than a diabetic can be expected to argue in favor of having access to insulin. Terfs have literally nothing to do with my experience with being trans. Everything you have written here is exhausting to have to deal with and it's insane that people trot out this clowny shit when they have no idea what it's like to live with this their entire fucking lives.

Downvoting me doesn't invalidate my lived experience lmao

For various reasons, cities in America do not really invest in alternatives to automobile use. It's not an LA exclusive problem but LA is a good example of why this can't be the only way for your citizens to get around.

They prey on the vulnerable. That's really all you have to say.

That seems to be the job of the Supreme Court for quite a few groups of people yes.

You really really don't need a business to fence things in 2023. It's also safe to assume that a group that can coordinate a robbery like this one likely has put the effort in to coordinate where the loot is going.

Human sexuality is itself prejudiced. That's the whole point of the queer movement. You are claiming that sexual attraction is never allowed to stop once it starts, but people do that all the freaking time over the most mundane reasons. The dealbreaker is absolutely allowed to be genitalia - it can also be a mole or an odor or a nose that you decide reminds you too much of someone who caused trauma or whatever. People are allowed their fluidity, especially once you start moving into less sex positive spaces. It is very much you saying we can control attraction to deny how sexuality operates.

Hey there. Trans person here to tell you that you are just straight up wrong. We haven't been fighting for rights for years so people can backtrack on the basic rules of sexuality out of misplaced identity zealotry. The whole point of most queer dialogue is that you can't control who you're attracted to. Magically changing that is actually just another way to harm trans people in the eyes of potential cis allies.

Legislating away my access to healthcare.

As a trans person, is there a point at which I no longer have to try to conduct discussion about my right to exist?

Don't forget the same low effort pun threads cropping up over and over. Or someone writes a pretty decent joke and the replies immediately have at least one person repeating it in a worse form. It's not as bad as the contrarianism for its own sake or the aggressive strawmanning, but goddam. So much about discourse on Reddit had been exhausting for fucking years.
