For the record the kitty litter thing was something a school had for emergency use in the case of something like a mass shooting where kids couldn't leave their classroom to use the bathroom.

Even if you disbelieve drag's identity, they are NOT the reason transphobia exists. TRANSPHOBES are the reason transphobia exists.
Every marginalized group has some faction that is willing the throw another smaller or more marginalized group under the bus. There are gays trying to claim legitimacy by fighting trans rights, and binary trans folks are saying we'd be a lot farther if nbs didn't exist. This is just pandering to people who already hate us in the hopes that we can distract them from ourselves for a little while. It doesn't work and it hurts people who should be our allies.
You mention the kitty litter thing, but you know that was fully a lie, right? It was there in case of an active shooter situation, and the people upset about it weren't gesturing to people like drag, but to furries, most of whom (in reality) are just enjoying playing pretend. They will make up lies and people to get mad about with or without those people, so how could drag possibly be making this worse?
If you are trans then your existence is ammo to transphobes. That's kinda just... how it works.
Did you read my comment at all?
"I don't have a problem with trans people"
-process to list all their problems with trans people
Wow, way to prove drag's bloody point.
Uh no, that would be the people doing the dehumanising ya donkey.
Enby here - the only one making me feel like I'm treated like a joke is you. Your "problems" are just victim-blaming Drag for the hate the trans community gets as a whole. Drag isn't responsible for that, and the person repeating transphobic talking points right now is YOU.
Right now, you're not being an ally. Either educate yourself, or stop speaking for us.
Yeah I promise you if furries vanished off the face of the earth transphobes would still be transphobes. Elon Musk is about to be directly involved in government and you think everything you mentioned here is a real obstacle for trans rights? AstroTurf detected blink twice
Fuck off transphobe
So anyone not within your frame of "people" is just trolling and shitting on people. damn, truly "token-effort"
judge what we don't understand, instead of letting people just live.
Drag here isn't harming anyone, and seemingly understands the confusion people get, and is not judging.
You know... your comment is precisely what has and will be said about trans people that conform to the gender roles, and NB's that don't fit inside them. It's the thing terf say when "men go into bathroom! it's horrible!"
Don't be a part of the problem plz
Have to ask, what's this kink?
I'll assume it's not neopronouns, as that's just pronouns? And tbh I do not know drag, so I hadon't know if there is anything else you're referring to?
Dragon Fucking, apparently, and their pronoun is an extension of that.
Drag uses drag/dragself pronouns because drag is a dragon rider. Drag has been in relationships with many dragons, both platonic and romantic. Even when drag was single, being a dragon rider was still part of drag.
"You can take the dog out of the fight but you can't take the fight out of the dog" or something.
👏👏👏
Actually, drag identifies as a dragon rider. Drag's partner is the dragon.
The moment someone uses "I identify as [...]", lots of people get their panties in a bunch.
