Down with cis!!!!

lmao bro that is a Tumblr meme phrase. Look it up to get the full connotation. It is hilarious to me that cis people are actually seeing this as hate speech. It's like white people complaining about reverse racism.

Well, I think most people don't really care that much, but imagine how you might feel if there was a similar meme phrase that people were hiding behind that were to switch out cis for trans in your meme phrase. Just some food for thought.

That's different because of systemic oppression! Hope that helps!

I'm cis. You are responsible for exact same amount of system trans oppression as I am. None. I never did anything to oppress you. I do not insult you. I do not treat you as less than anyone else. You have no moral justification to treat me as less than anyone else. The only one in our relationship treating someone poorly is YOU. I understand that this is what you have been tricked into doing, but you are able to stand up for yourself. You are able to do your own thinking. You can be too powerful to fall for the tricks of people who want to see you act so despicably, but you have to decide to start thinking for yourself first. People who tell you to blindly hate absolutely do not have your interests in mind.

I'm not hurt by your comments at all, they clearly are coming from a place of pain. I just saw someone struggling and offered some kind words of support.
