    Oh, so funny. 🤓. Mods abusing their powers. Haven’t seen that story before. 😂

    The unfortunate part of it is that the community has abused the word “transphobia” to the point that it doesn’t really mean anything. It should mean something, and calling someone transphobic should have power, but it doesn’t anymore because people throw the term around like it’s nothing. You’re not 100% on board with every single thing someone says? You’re transphobic!

    Kind of like calling someone antisemitic these days. It means nothing because people have abused it to shut down conversations and debates when they should have embraced the opportunity for a conversation or at least defended their point of view.

    Just like you did at the beginning of this. Zero context, but cause I was banned from some communities I’ve never even been to, you’re going to tell me you don’t want to have a conversation.

    It’s that kind dismissive BS that is giving power to the Republicans and pushing people away from the Democratic Party. If you had it your way, this party would be a skeleton with nothing else.
