I'm not a solipsist, I'm an antirealist. I believe things are real, but that reality is a social construct and must be abolished.
Anyway, as a willful misgenderer of trans people, you may have a queer identity, but you are not part of the queer/lgbt movement. You have to be an ally for that, it's a choice. So personally, yes, you're queer, but socially, you're not. Try actually respecting other queer people if you want to be queer.
Oh, telling me what I think and do again!
How original.
Let me know when you find the part of my text where I say I willfully misgender trans people.
Fuck, I've nearly been killed over defending a trans person and their preferred pronouns.
But you're the arbiter of reality, so I guess nah, actually I'm awful.
Oh well.
That was a wild chat
There's nothing more important to me than self determination. Now excuse me while I determine that your entire identity is invalid because you... refer to each person using the words they prefer you to use according to situation and social context?
