    I agree that we shouldn’t misgender people or intentionally call them by the wrong name, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with pointing out the hypocrisy of their political stance.

    Republicans are actively persecuting people are transgender and foreigners (or people who sound like foreigners), so to point out how they are being hypocritical is not all that out of line imo.

      Pointing out the hypocrisy and intentionally calling her by the name she doesn’t wish to go by are two different things. Sure, point out why she might have change her name. But respect people’s name choices.
