I think that's the part that gets to me. "hey do this or you're a lib" is a personal attack that people are comparing to all kinds of shit. am I going foggy or is "you're a lib" one of the standard responses to people on this site?

I'm kind of glad we didn't have the default and this happened. would have sucked to be blindsided by more serious transphobia later on while continuing to believe this place was the same as a couple of months ago (full-throatedly and unanimously in support of trans people).
