I am so sick and tired about hearing about trans issues. Outrageously disproportionate to the real issues we need to focus on.
It wouldn't be a conversation if the alt right media would stop acting as if transgender people are causing all their problems.
That's not what is happening. It seems more like trans people are screaming constantly that we are trying to kill them and other insane shit.
Shit I got banned from steams Halls of Torment forums by a trans for saying I did not want identity politics in the games I play.
It's not the alt right that is the problem here. It's people being unable to relax the fuck out and just live life without making their sexuality an explicit part of everyone else's awareness.
What exactly do you mean with identity politics in the game? Why do you even bring it up on the forums? Is the game letting you select pronouns? Do you pick a body instead of "sex" in the character selection screen? Are you forced to undergo gender reassignment surgery upon logging into the game?
Also, gender does not mean sexuality. They are 2 separate things.
I am not trans. I am not LGBT. I'm an ally but i have never had any issues with LGBT people. Never ever have i felt like anything is "shoved down my throat", forced or whatever on me. Never have they ever even had a big conversation about it with me. The ONLY thing we talked about was when i meet someone and they tell me their pronouns. He, she, they or whatever else they want. Then i respond with "okay cool" and thats the end of it.
I really don't understand why you feel like its the only thing we talk about? The right brings it up 24/7 and when they see anyone even with a pride flag in their profile, or maybe their pronouns, they have an absolute baby meltdown.
The issue is you mate. Even how you say "banned by a trans". Who talks like that? You seem uncomfortable with it and therefore annoyed and upset. Chill and stop worrying so damn much about others...
