It wasn't an opinion, you gleefully referenced the upcoming administration in the US as it will handle trans people. You used the threat of institutional violence to try and make me afraid for my life and safety. Children could read those comments. That would do measureable harm to them. Those are horrible things to say. Your laissez faire attitude about it shows that you are in fact fine with hurting children.

I never once said anything that threatened your life.

I never said you did. You used the threat of violence from the change in power on January 20th to try and make me feel threatened and afraid. There's literally no other explanation for what you said. That's an awful thing to do to someone. Why are you even responding to me at this point if you're glad that the safety and well-being of other people like me is going to come under attack in a week? Isn't talking to me at all basically against the ideology of the people you support? They talk about my community like we're subhuman animals who should be put down for who we are. Because we're not the same as them and we don't conform with the expectations they enforce.

If you support attacks on my right to exist, my right to access healthcare and be a healthy person with quality of life, then I don't see why it would matter if you did or didn't literally threaten to hurt me.

I said that you were trying to make me feel threatened, not that I was.

Idk how you can call me living my life as normal "playing dress up". I've had reassignment surgery, I've been on hormones for a decade lmao. This is who I am, I'm not dishonestly presenting myself. Also, I thought it was totally cool for me to "be as masculine or as feminine" as I'd like, lmao. Guess you were lying about that.

Sad that it seemed like you were having half a second of self-awareness before losing it again. You don't seem very adept at critical thinking. Easier for you to try and insult me than actually consider anything I've said. I guess you prefer coming across as laughably incompetent as long as you can act like an insensitive douchebag. Oh well. It's not my job to educate you. Maybe consider vyvanse or some other stimulant medication, though, because you genuinely seem to have a hard time reading and following along with a conversation.
