In commemoration of the upcoming Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), President Joe Biden issued a statement praising trans people’s contributions to society and describing actions his administration has taken to counter transphobic bullying and extremism. Additionally, many members of Biden’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) also issued their own statements affirming that community health depends on supporting trans people too.

“Transgender Americans are part of the fabric of our Nation,” Biden wrote in his statement. “Whether serving their communities or in the military, raising families or running businesses, they help America thrive. They deserve, and are entitled to, the same rights and freedoms as every other American, including the most fundamental freedom to be their true selves.”

    Well, at least now I’m a little bit better at determining when I’m talking to a bigot attempting to drum up hate against trans people by mascarading as one of the worst of them. So it’s not a total waste of time, I suppose. I guess it adds to the sweetness knowing that I’ve wasted your time as well, considering your sneaky little plan ended up not working after all.

    Also, now I’m able to warn anyone else that you try your little trick on. All in all, I’d say it’s worth it. Although, considering how new your account is, I guess this is the part of the game where you just make a new account and try again. In hindsight, I guess I should have just let you go on thinking it was working.

    It has also helped me to improve my English. On top of that, I’ve learned a bit about “stylometry” because I had chatgpt talk me through making a python script that uses the lemmy API(turns out its a thing) that scans lemmy comments looking for your writing style so I can hopefully determine whatever your other(and future) accounts are. Hopefully, I can squash you out before you have a chance to trick anyone else. Trans people are too special, and if you are going to try so hard to hurt them, then I will be damned if I don’t fight back to help them.

    You adorable little Tucker Carlson wannabe, you. You had a good run.

      Maybe find some trans YouTubers to watch, Jamie Dodger is great and has a PhD in some field related to trans issues. You’re wasting your time, terf. I’m literally not reading these lol

        It’s fine if you don’t read them. They are more for the sake of anyone else you try to do this to than they are for you anyway.

        Thanks for the tip, I’m curious if they are actually pro-trans or just another one like you, just mascarading to try to bring down the image of the trans community.

            It just seems so unlikely that you would be acting like this if you weren’t trying to give trans a bad name. If you were genuinely interested in helping the trans movement, then you would have answered my questions or ignored them if they were beyond your understanding. You wouldn’t have immediately just gone right into calling me names and wishing for my demise as soon as you heard I was cis.

                As soon as you told me that I went and asked other trans people what the proper way to refer to xx and xy people if not biological female and biological male, and they ALL emphatically agreed that it is absolutely, undeniably, the proper way to refer to them, and is in no way offensive. They even asked me where I thought babies come from if there are no females/males. Then, I sent you the link to the conversation. Guess what your response was: “TERF!!!”

                I have, and had absolutely no intention to insult anybody or call anyone by improper names or insults(you are still the only person involved that is doing this). I was simply trying to learn what the proper terminology was.

                  genetic men is not a widely used term by anyone except terfs. find me a lgbtq org or style guide that suggests that terminology if you can, but you can’t. you’ll definitely find orgs that tell you not to use that term.

                    Literally from the thread I gave you before. Here is a link from a trans person to a nature article that literally refers to biological sex.

                    https://www.nature.com/articles/s41386-020-0666-3

                    At this point, I don’t know if you are oblivious to your own community or if you are intentionally trying to make trans look bad.
