   Kindly stop waving around Threads being here as kind of a moral absolute where if you don't agree, for or against, you automatically don't care about others. Either you "don't care about marginalized users" or "you don't care about making this place comfortable for more people" or whatever other variant.

   Have your reactions, your emotions are absolutely valid, but please please please separate your reaction from judgements about other people's motives. Please.

     In a previous round of this discourse I had someone who is not trans say that they were "listening to trans people" and that's why they had their view. With the implication that I was not.

     To me.

     Directly.

     I wish I could even say this is _unusual_, since it seems to happen in all sorts of issues

     Pause for a moment and read my profile. I'll wait

     Usually when I see someone say that it more often means "I had an opinion and then I found trans people who agreed with me"
