I do think that comparing a non native speaker using the wrong article with trans people having to fear for their lives sometimes is downplaying it. I don’t think that was the intent with the original comment, which is why I also don’t appreciate the other person’s snappy response. But I do believe those kinds of jokes can subconsciously make people believe things aren’t as bad as they actually are.
Second, I’m not the one to pull transphobia into the context. The joke did that on its own.
Third, I’m looking to have a civil discussion, you’re the one exaggerating things and starting drama by throwing profanities around and accusing me of virtue signalling.
Oh grow the fuck up would you and quit the offended on behalf of others shtick.
OPs post was not transphobic in the slightest. You’re just a shit head trying to manufacture drama.
You are not looking for civil discussion so don’t try and sell me that pile of horseshit either.
You are trying to create drama and are acting like a cliche virtual signalling douchebag.
