I have used that tag for almost a decade and you're one of the only ones that has ever found me through such a tag, so congrats I guess? I am not trying to fucking "trick" anybody, I am expressing my opinions in my own blog and organizing my posts for my own convenience. What I am not going to do, however, is try to hide my posts in a public forum so that nobody with a differing opinion could not accidentally end up seeing something that challenges or criticizes them, that would be pathetic. I know people like you are used to creating echochambers and you think you are being violated for simply having to witness someone disagree, but that is literally your own personal problem, not mine.
Yes I am lumping trans activists with each other for the very reason that they did it to us first. That is the point of the post. That is the strategy. That is the argument. I am perfectly capable of understanding that trans people are not a monolith or a hivemind, but I am also fucking tired of pretending that trans activist rhetoric and all the theories about transness does not hurt other people, and so yes, they will have to taste their own medicine at times. Boohoo.
How many times have I had to hear nonbinary trans activists say that they don't feel like men or women but just humans, as if to say that none of the rest of us count as humans? How many times have I had to hear trans people feel mockingly bad for "cis" people for being so boring and vanilla, in comparison to their "quirky queerness"? How many times have I had to hear trans people say that everybody has a gender identity, shoving that ideology and religious, unfalsifiable belief down other people's throats? Just about a thousand times at this point. I have studied trans activism for a decade now, I fucking know how they are talking. And yes, me using the word "trans activism" is not a coincidence, that is exactly why I use the tag too. My criticism is mainly towards the activism, not toward individual trans people (although a lot of them are even worse and still face zero resistance from the rest of the community, but that's beside the point).
And if you want more than anecdotes, look at the fucking Oxford English Dictionary definition of "cisness", that was added to it in 2015 because trans activists demanded it to be there. It is defined as "designating a person whose sense of personal identity corresponds to the sex and gender assigned to him or her at birth (in contrast with transgender)". That's a fucking massive, outrageous joke. WHY WOULD ANYBODY FULLY IDENTIFY WITH A ROLE THAT IS FORCED ON THEM SINCE BIRTH? There is nobody like that. Every single human being is an individual, not a two-dimensional cartoon character that identifies with an arbitrary list of stereotypical bullshit, like gender is. No one is cis. No one is innately "masculine" or "feminine" or "feels aligned with either", everyone is a massive collection of traits that cannot be fitted into a neat box.
I do not identify as a woman, I am an adult human female and I happen to have a personality that is just my own, just like everyone else. I am also not an agender, because I was socialized into a gender AGAINST MY WISHES, just like everyone else is.
And look, if you HAD actually just used the word "cis" to mean someone who has not medically transitioned and is not planning to, that would have been meaningful in and of itself. That would have helped you with your argument, maybe. But it's too late to take that back now. The current version of your ideology has already harmed millions of people worldwide and taken feminist activism and gay activism 50 years back, and you don't even understand it yourself.
