Obviously reporting transphobic comments to a transphobic mod isn’t going to result in any action, so I’m wondering if the admins are going to do anything about it?

(if someone needs an image description, please ask)

      Yes. But a transphobe is different from a transphobic idea.

      The post wasn’t about someone saying something transphobic, it was about someone being a transphobe. Those are not inherently the same, which was the entire point of my comment.

        Yes, they are, like I said, you don’t have to mean it to be transphobic for it to be transphobic. People who are ignorant and get called out who don’t want to be transphobes will admit ignorance, apologise, and improve their behaviour. Anything else makes a person a transphobe, no matter how uncomfortable that makes you.

          We’re talking at cross purposes here.

          You’re presenting absolutes, I’m saying it isn’t absolute. There’s no room for anything with that. I’ve said my bit, you’ve said yours. Thank you for your time.
