"we're all faggots in the eyes of the state" okay but the state recognises different category of "faggot" where one is "idiot womanchildren with delusions of grandeur" and another is "subhuman predators that must be excised from society posthaste" like neither are a great way to treat another human being but can we pleeeeeeease acknowledge the difference here
"stop queer infighting we're all-" okay so is this actually queer infighting or did a trans woman describe her lived experience in a way you didn't like
tbh anyone deemed "idiot womanchild with delusions of grandeur" is in potential danger to be viewed as "second class breeding stock who needs to be beaten, raped, institutionalized and or lobotomized until she behaves" and thank god the state is not at that point. but we do have to keep in mind that is exactly what has occurred in our lifetime and could occur again. if you are saying trans mascs are viewed as idiotwomanchildren that means they are targeted by and very vulnerable to misogyny. which in and of itself is still a big deal. and I would ask trans mascs or really any lgbt allies to not underplay misogyny and how life destroying it really is and can be. guys keep in mind that if being perceived as inadequate women is negatively effecting trans mascs, which I believe it is, imagine how bad that is for women. trans and cis both obviously.
that said the point stands that the demonization and violence towards trans women and current movement of eradicating trans women is more dire than the situation described above and its flippant and tone deaf to directly compare the two as interchangeable.
