For those who haven’t heard yet: a radio show booked an Australian “Gender Critical” :up-yours-woke-moralists: man to argue against trans rights. But people checked his Twitter likes and they were half GC and half… trans porn. : YEARS worth of it. So he cancelled his appearance and deleted his account 😂 :thonk-trans:

I think I remember years ago seeing a comment somewhere that perfectly descriped this behavior (probably :reddit-logo:):
It came from a story of a pastor or something that was famous for hating gay people and was later caught having gay sex at an airport or something. Basically the reason people that are obsessed with hating a group like gay people is because they are constantly thinking about gay sex. They can’t get it out of their heads because it makes them horny but they are taught to hate it so they are constantly :frothingfash: about it and sound like lunatics.
No surprise that people that are constantly hating trans people are because they can’t stop thinking about how hot they are.
“I’m sick and tired of seeing trans people every time I close my eyes, wait, I mean … turn on the TV”

just a reminder that liberals use stories like this to build a softer kind of bigotry where queer people are actually responsible for their own oppression, as all the bigots are secretly queer. on the contrary, there are plenty of cishet bigots that are not queer and the very structure of society is anti-queer.
Understandable. That just hasn’t been my takeaway from them.

Granted not my family… but I would have fun bringing up every time he talks about gay people something like “you seem to think about gayness a lot, have you ever thought about that?”
I have family members with subtly racist/bigoted views that they don’t see as such. I am getting less and less motivated to bite my tongue at family gatherings when they say something trashy. One night my dad showed his ass by defending the English Monarchy and Christopher Columbus because the atrocities they did were in the past when they were considered “normal” and you can’t criticize them for that. :brainworms: Because you know, morality has only existed for a couple hundred years now.
