Strong "I identify as an attack helicopter" vibes.
Don't wander in if you're feeling vulnerable, but that goes without saying for anything on reddit.
i saw the super shit earlier today. of course theres a sub now.
also lol at "superphobe." fuckin reactionaries and their persecution complex
edit: ok i read some of the posts and uh.... :cringe:
edit 2: sure are a lot of nazis hanging out, surprise surprise
they literally call themselves oppressed in their description
How do they not understand this? If you say "I'd never date or have sex with a trans person" that's just plain and simple bigotry, because it's singling out being trans as a deal-breaker. I know everyone has their type, but if the only thing stopping you is the person being trans...that's where you're transphobic. They seem to have flipped "you shouldn't reject a person on the basis of being trans or not" into some kind of extremely bizarre not real thing that's like "it's mandatory to have sex with trans people or else you're a bigot."
It's also fucking weird how much they focus on lesbians being harassed by trans women. You'd think the problem there would be a person suffering harassment. They seem to be suggesting it's extra bad when a trans woman does it versus anyone else.
How do they keep coming up with new ways of denying the existence of trans people
At least not dating trans people is sort of vaguely debatable. But like, if that in itself weren't transphobic, then making an entire community about how you don't want to date trans people DEFINITELY is.
It's not transphobic to have genitalia preferences. Having an entire subreddit to being "super straight" definitely is, though. :cringe:
It’s not transphobic to have genitalia preferences
mostly because trans people have all kinds of genitals, so being trans and having a certain kind of genitals is not correlated
they aren't exactly saying "I'm a straight man, which on the basis of sex means I'm attracted to cis women, trans men, and non-binary people who were assigned female at birth." They're saying "I have no interest in trans people." The lack of nuance is where the transphobia is.
yeah, these people aren't expressing themselves like that and you're giving them far too much benefit of the doubt
it's literally a subreddit complaining about trans people
i don't know how to explain to you that a clearly threadbare dog-whistle community focused on the behavior of alleged trans incels is itself transphobic
it would be transphobic even if it were exactly what you say it is
"the sub's sidebar says 'a community for people who want to secure a future for their children' what's so bad about that?"
it's a terf/anti trans reactionary sub. they're using the debatable legitimacy of what you're talking about as a cover to dog whistle their transphobia.
I clicked, saw the word "transplained" in a post title and immediately clicked back
Ahh yes the "based" place where Neonazi memes and child pornography were shared with gleeful abandon by a bunch of neckbearded misanthropes. Very based!
This seems to be anti trans in general, rather than being a TERF issue. (Which is relating to supposed feminists)
Remember Trans Men exist and are discriminated against!
one of their top posts: "superstraight, the reactionary movement to a radical community"
well they're not wrong...
Right-wingers can't do satire because they're too mad.
There was a sub a while back that was about "kitchen appliances" that was not so secretly a horribly racist sub that thought they were being clever I guess. But all the posts were like "did you know that 13% of toasters commit 40% of all crime" and "blenders are all Marxists infiltrating our society and they should all be swiftly executed"
They couldn't even drop the hatred and talking points for one minute just to make a "joke".
"4chan Admits To Attempting To Hijack Our Movement to Troll The SSLGBT+ Community" submitted 5 hours ago announcement
Yeah that's just semi-veiled tradcath fascist shit with a hefty dose of cringe.
the pandemic has prevented double-digit school shootings from that sub's users
99.9% of those people have never even met a trans person.
Why do transphobes think trans people desperately want to fuck them and also oppress them? Does it not occur to them that trans people just want to live their lives without being harassed?
They're afraid that trans people will fuck them and that they'll enjoy it, that's why.
Very gross and totally not them being upset.
The "have sex" reply to /pol/ was extremely successful. They're still seething that they're being called incels.
but trans people venting their stress by making violent internet posts are "evil misogynists", hmm
