Call me a shitlib I guess but I think it's super gross to make cracks about the assumed political opinions of people whose home has just been destroyed by a hurricane

Lord knows we are all excited for another chance to dunk on #MarkRobinson but I am *once* *again* reminding cisgender liberals that transphobic jokes are still transphobic even when they are made at the expense of another transphobe.Final thought here -- I don't know if you all understand how terrifying that dynamic is for women who are trans.
To know that a *significant* number of men, some quite powerful, privately want to fuck us but publicly want to harm us or drive other folks to.
What for you, the liberal onlooker, is just another funny example of conservative hypocrisy, is for many of us a microcosm of our worst fears about how men want to harm us while everyone else points and laughs.

Robinson isn't at all unique in that respect, he's just an extreme example.
Every cis guy who ever privately hit me up on DM but balked at a date in public ... is doing basically the same thing as him, just less explicitly.

Even in porny and explicit terms, where appropriate and consensual.
It's pathetic to be attracted privately but talk about us publicly like we are monsters.
Make fun of the second part, not the first.
Or better yet, skip the boring, repetitive jokes and just point out that there's nothing wrong with thinking trans people are hot, and that it's sad so many trans-attracted people hate themselves so much.

Please stop using our people as props for your boring, predictable sex jokes.

I think it's super interesting that both of the men who've taken potshots at the former president were also former supporters.I think it's super interesting that both of the men who've taken potshots at the former president were also former supporters.

Fedi isn't perfect, and I'm often highly critical of it and sarcastic about its users.Fedi isn't perfect, and I'm often highly critical of it and sarcastic about its users.
But for all of its flaws, I don't feel like I'm being owned by anyone when I use it and that's a big deal to me.
