I think its probably possible to use a meme format without intending it to compare yourself to the subject of the meme

Look everyone! Another troll that doesn’t understand what trigger warnings are for!
I still have a lot of de-googling to do. However at this point, I only use google as a search engine maybe once/month, and it’s frankly usually for the google business info…thing. For everything else, I use Kagi and quite frankly have not looked back. Probably one of the few services that I happily pay for.
I’m going to very sincerely disagree. You can see it as misinterpretation if you like, but I believe there’s functionally no difference between the two statements you’ve provided and as long as the right is trying to come up with any excuse to outlaw our existence, its optically beneficial to come up with ways of educating people who may be “eggs” about being trans/enby that are informative, but are less likely to fuel a deranged groomer witchhunt. I’m glad it helped you and your friends, but given the political climate, I believe we should avoid terms that endanger us more than needed.
Continue using it, I certainly won’t stop you. But I’m not going to start.
Frankly idgaf about the prime directive (edit: this is perhaps an exaggeration, I meant I wasn’t necessarily referring to the prime directive) , but as an enby person, I think going around saying “doing this makes you an egg” is pretty antithetical to people not wanting to be judged for not complying with the gender roles that correspond with their assigned gender.
I don’t think egg jokes are healthy for the trans community homie
“You can’t do anything to personally fix this, so you might as well not worry about it”
I fucking hate this mindset. This mindset is the reason we are in this position. We can’t just sit idly by and silently watch the right implement fascist policy and say “well, they were gonna try anyways, nothing we can do I guess”.
I’d be asking you to take the headset off
I think it’s a little “exotic” to call my existence an inherent political commentary. It’s certainly something that can be used to inform political debate, but I believe saying that it’s inherent misses the point that our existence is only political because it’s politicized
And for what it’s worth, gender dysphoria is also something experienced by nonbinary folks, but it isn’t a requirement of being trans or non-binary either. Some people just don’t experience it and requiring it as a clinical diagnosis is part of the medicalization of our and trans people’s existence as well.
I don’t really know how to finish this lol, I agree with the rest of your comment. I just wanted to correct what I feel are common misconceptions.
I thought they were gender abolitionist, but I… I’m not too sure anymore.
I’m entirely for gender abolitionism, but you really need to find some better rhetoric. “Cope and seethe, your arguments are shit” won’t work on most people
Worth noting that RE:4 was cracked day of release.
Doomerism is bad in all forms, do not give up
I know, it’s absolutely ridiculous. I’m sorry I even suggested it in the first place. /s
