Got a reply in the thread this am, he changed his mind about talking to me I guess. It's too crazy to not share, it hits every trope:

"There are absolutely no trans people being vilified right now. In fact they're extremely celebrated and have everyone like yourself, getting overly offended on their behalf when someone says anything even remotely negative about them. I have trans friends and am actually talking to one right now to try and hookup, cuz she's very hot. I'm a little frustrated lately cuz I'm not allowed to ask questions about it to anyone and have been called a transphobe for fucking weeks now everytime I try to understand a little better and try to learn what to expect. Its one of the only things we're not allowed to ask questions about without being called some kind of name and having accusations made about us. And I just find that extremely weird and annoying. That right there is the reason why so many people are resentful towards this whole movement, cuz I'm very tolerant but over these last few weeks I'm starting to build up my own resentments simply cuz of how I'm being talked to by others for wanting to know more. And in the future, if you wanna be taken seriously, maybe don't try to make your point by starting out your comment with name calling, cuz it automatically puts the person you're talking to into defensive mode and it just escalates into an argument instead of a reasonable convo between adults. It's a childish way of making your point."
