    I rest my case.

    This is what drives people further to the right. We’re not allowed to disagree with the trans agenda or have our own views on the matter.

    You’re doing more harm than good when you try to control what people think.

      “Ya know I stood for things like labor rights, marriage equality, women’s rights, and then I was told to respect people and stand up for their civil liberties and then I became more and more right wing, and abandoned all previous morals and ethics because someone said something mean to me online a few too many times.”

      If I changed my mind on shit because someone was rude I’d never have a firm opinion on anything.

        It’s not about being mean.

        You literally will go out of your way to make sure people can’t share ideas that go against the trans agenda.

        Like it or not, this will cause rational people to abandon your cause altogether because you’re trying to manipulate them into agreeing with you.

          “People are being hurt and we need to do something.”

          “I don’t wanna, inconveniences me.”

          “Then you’re not helpful, you’re at best not helping victims, at worst aiding in prolonging their pain.”

          “Now you’ve lost me as an ally!”

          Go bother someone else you can grift into thinking “the left got too crazy for me, so i left the left” as you claim you got cancelled and blacklisted as you make hundreds of thousands on right wing media.

        I have seen similar arguments from people like this again and again. “You’re driving people to the right with your left-wing ideas!”

        What?
