    You might “act like an asshole” too if people were spreading hate and misinformation about your marginalized identity that has been politicized and discriminated against increasingly over the past decade. Tone policing isn’t cute.

        Why are people on this app/website/whatever so paranoid and dismissive of anyone with a slight disagreement lmao, just because someone isn’t on the same page as you, doesn’t mean they’re an FBI plant. But I guess it’s easier to say that than it is to admit you’re tone-policing a trans person after an encounter with a rampant and overt transphobe.
