I'm not sure that I agree with everything that you stated, but I CAN agree with one thing: "I will defend trans rights". You see, as a right leaning person, I believe that I truly understand the "COEXIST" sticker that most liberals have on their car.
That's a bit of an iffy stance, if your coworker was openly racist would you respect their right to be racist and proudly work besides them?
As long as the "racist" was respectful during working hours, I have no issues. This ALL changes, however, if those views are actively pushed within the workplace.
You sure that's even liberals? Most I know aren't religious and wouldn't put that anywhere near their cars.
Yes, I too love when dangerous ideologies are just theoretical because I don't need to worry about them manifesting as legislation or violence against me simply for existing. XD
So when does disagreement become "transphobic"? If I say that a transwoman shouldn't compete against biological women in sports, am I a transphobe and get lumped in with those that are trying to "genocide" the community? The world is shades of gray, not just black and white.
What a horrible strawman. If you see labeling every transgender as a pedophile or sexual predator the same as sports competitions, you're beyond lost. How about not going after every transgender while leaving all the guilty Catholic priests alone for decades?
Do you acknowledge power dynamics? Is that something you can wrap your head around? Like, one the one hand, stochastic terrorists with platforms, either in media or politics, call trans people "p3dos," and we get murdered and have our rights stripped away. On the other hand, a woman was working in a public-facing position while following said transphobes, gets called a transphobe, and loses her job as a result.
I try to point out that not everyone that agrees or disagrees an ideology are evil and you jump right to that I am "beyond lost" and then throw Catholic priests at me?
You realize there's a group of very vocal people doing exactly what you say you're against, right? You knows that's why this situation blew up like it did, right?
Interesting that you downplay her situation. This is probably a very stressful moment of her life ... publicly being embarrassed by her company, the internet, you and others. Does she deserve it?
Okay yeah, that's where I stop wasting my time lol.
Except that the person who attacked Kara Lynne and made her lose her job is in fact a p3d0. Those are the facts. The was no need to attack her. The single tweet she made took place 7 years ago, before she even started working at LRG.
How old are you? 16-17 years old? I believe that 99% of people have no problem with trans. Who you sleep with or what you do to your body as an adult is your business and should stay that way. The problem is that you're not trying to defend trans rights, what you're advocating for is trying to normalize the mutilation of children. If you think that parents are just going to stand back and let you mutilate their kids then think again. Messing with kids is the one line you don't want to cross. Even in prison amongst the hardened criminals and murderers, messing with underage kids is the one crime you don't want to go to prison for. I promise you.
The condescension is cute, but I'm 35. Already done a fair bit of "irreversible damage" to my body, and I guarantee I'm hotter than any girl you'll ever be with. XD
No condescension intended. You brought up genocide. I have no other idea why you would feel like someone would want to genocide you.. As I said, if the intention is to go after kids, there will be push back from parents. Even animals will fight to the death to defend their young. That is inherent to all species.
Sorry that I can't give 100% approval, I still have issues with many different facets of the ideology. To Bryson's point, I also have issues with the "trans kids" thing, parent approval, hormone blockers, etc. Bill Maher recently had a monologue on the subject (Along for the Pride, look it up on YouTube) which pretty much sums up my stance. As an adult, you're free to make your own decisions, but kids aren't mature enough to make many of these life altering changes that are often glorified and celebrated on social media.

I understand exactly what he's saying. Society has in recent years tried to eliminate gender stereotypes such as: girls like dolls, boys like trucks. This was considered progressive saying that a girl can like masculine things and that a boy can like feminine things.
Maybe you should reexamine your need to control women, I think it might be holding you back emotionally if you're having trouble coping in the real world
I grew up with younger sisters you f#cking weirdo. It's probably why I feel the need to protect women from perverts like you. Meanwhile the recent mass shooting of innocent children in Nashville was committed by a trans activist. I implore anyone with children to keep them far far away from these mentally deranged psychopaths.
Sure seems to be, which is absolutely laughable. NC is an at-will state that can fire for any reason whatsoever, and me thinks being the COMMUNITY MANAGER for a company that sells a wide variety of games from different cultures and backgrounds, and being transphobic like she was is absolutely understandable terms for termination: hell, even if you were on the “wow did they really kneejerk that fast over an old follow?” Train, all that should have flown out the window the minute she began publicly associating with anti trans activists and known bigots after the firing, and going on a silly “pity me” tour.
hours after being fired, her husband tweeted at TheQuartering and Tim Pool, two of the biggest outrage bigots on YT and complained about the company being "woke" when firing her, then weeks later Kara appeared on Tucker Carlson, which... Yeah, explains itself. She even got backing from libs of tiktok, who pretty much is the absolute worst of toxicity in the anti-trans space as of now, and months later she quote retweeted Gays Against Groomers backing their dumb crusade against trans people. Not to mention the many interviews she went on from all sorts of far right grifters like Quartering in the months and weeks since before ending up at her new job. As a looooong time game reviewer who've met hundreds of devs and pubs from all over the world, those sorts of associations are a great way to get blacklisted or at least get a lot of indies to not want to work with you, especially when a bunch of LGBT folk are making games while also having to fight for their human rights in recent years and hardly anyone is tolerant of that bigotry these days anyhow.
For the at will employment piece, she even acknowledged this herself in her first post after getting fired. That post alone would likely undercut a lot of her ability to bring any type of legal theory she could come up with for her “wrongful” termination. (Those quotes doing a lot of heavy lifting obviously)
