That's more of a centrist take. It makes perfect sense for trans allies to demonize transphobes, for example. Nobody is advocating against constructive conversation, but sometimes views are genuinely rooted in malice and thus cannot be reasoned with.
I'm not sure you want to take a middle ground between being transphobic and being a trans ally, as that's just transphobia. The transphobes should, in fact, be shunned and demonized for being bigots.
Homophobia ain't cool either.
Neither malice nor fear are good when directed at minority populations, and pretending one is better than the other when they breed each other is again a meaningless centrist take.
I'm flattered that you think I sound cool, though 😎
I'm a guilt by guilt kinda guy. Fear of minorities is bad.
I understand the mechanisms perfectly well, you're just arguing that lighter transphobia and homophobia should be acceptable and shouldn't be demonized. Transphobia and homophobia should be demonized.
Now you're defending Homophobia, because you're afraid of normal, non-bigoted people.
Please, touch grass. You can stop commenting, you don't have to be a homophobe or transphobe. It's in your own power to be a decent human being.
Nah, transphobes and homophobes shouldn't have fun by being homophobic and transphobic.
