    Changing tracks might slow down some people’s commute to work by a few seconds… We can’t have that.

    If you press transphobes hard enough, they sometimes reveal that they’re only doing it to enforce their arbitraty definition of “normalcy”.

    A former friend of mine did confess to me he only lies about “gays” (read: everyone not cishet) being “pedophiles”, because he is disgusted with them, to the point he wants to make hate-crimes legal, saying “if you can’t stop being gay after a few beatings, you deserve even more, maybe even death”. If you ask: he also wants to uphold his standard of normalcy with music, movies, etc., also he’s a big racist too of course.

      Did he really say, “If you can’t stop being gay after a few beatings, you deserve even more, maybe even death”?

      That might be the most closeted coded sentence I’ve ever heard. Sounds like someone has generational trauma going on.

    If you’re the British Government you do your best to get onto the tram and hit the accelerator as hard as you can.
