    Open up a dictionary, and look up the word metaphor.

    Current and new legslation, is resulting and will result in people dying.

    And even outside that, yes, there absolutely have been murders where the motive was literally just “they were trans”.

    I don’t even need to look it up to be 100% sure that has happened.

    Additinally, having the world treat you, as if you are something you are not, is lethal. If you woke up tomorrow, and everyone around you insisted you were something you don’t feel you are, eventually, you’d end yourself.

    Maybe it would take years. Maybe you’ll be able to tough it out and not take the easy way out, but even if you manage to outlast the misery and die of old age, you won’t have gotten to really live, to experience the acceptance you and I take for granted on a daily basis.

    “Playing along” isn’t optional. It’s to the human mind what water and food is to our bodies.

      The post is basically implying a concerted effort in wiping out transexuals, but that’s not the case

      Also, being “pretty sure” doesn’t fly in a court. You have to prove big accusations like that

        You are gaslighting yourself into refusing reality.

        You’ve received an avalanche of good faith arguments explaining where you’re wrong, it would take a herculean effort of self-delusion to dismiss it all.
