What a charming person, I would love to run him over with a steamroller.

Good job reinforcing the stereotype that transgender people are violent and mentally unstable.
How dare you be upset when you are insulted!
🙄
Really? Jokes about steam roller counts as violence? Those Looney Toon be a real scary show for ya? Wild they make it for kids.
Shame on you. Feign your mock outrage and cry those crocodile tears, for the rest of us are laughing at the sad transparency.
In what world is driving a steamroller over someone not violent? How would you like it if someone made a meme about driving a steamroller over transgender people?
🐊 😭
You’re reaching and you know it.
You didn’t answer my question.
Because it’s a very silly question, one that I’m not going to entertain because…
Do you really think this person is out renting a steam roller? And trying to find the street address of that person now?!
You are steching so hard to call this a violent threat when it could not be more silly. You’re not motivated by “preventing violence”, because the entire premise here is ridiculous at face value. You’re motivated by wanting to call trans people unstable.
Go tell your friends, your boss, your family you stopped someone from getting killed by a steam roller by saying “tut tut, ur crazy” on the internet. You know damn well they are gonna laugh at you.
So I presume if someone posted a comment saying “I’d love to roll him over with a steamroller” under a post about a transgender person, you would not consider that a violent threat because they are not going to actually get a steamroller?
Respectability politics is nazi shit
He has a point, but it’s not really limited to trans people.
Mental illness in general seems to be revered among this generation, for some reason. I had to make some decisions about what sexes to include in my app, and I just went with ‘male, female, and other.’ I know that’s going to piss some people off, but they can just deal with it.
The amount of additional work required to add and maintain a list of genders just isn’t worth it. Thankfully this is mostly an issue in Western culture, and my app is worldwide.
People with an agenda expect you to bend over backwards to support that agenda because they care more about their agenda than what you’re actually doing.
Lol, if we start excluding tech based on the inventors mental illnesses we are gonna end up bashing rocks together to make fire.
Edit: To be clear, I am not saying that being trans is a mental illness, only refuting that mental illness is not a reason to discard ones contributions. Apologies for any offence.
don’t threaten me with a good time
.>calling being trans a mental illness
incredibly sus ngl 
The original post called it a mental illness, i was following that. Apologies if I caused offence it was not intended.
So do you also think it is a mental illness, or are you just being a middle school edgelord?
The original post referred to it as a mental illness, and claimed that was a reason to ignore their contribution. I was simply pointing out the silliness of that logic. I dont think its a mental illness, amd I have absolutely no problem with the trans community.
was simply pointing out the silliness of that logic
There are many, many ways you could have done that without repeating the bigoted belief that being trans is supposedly a mental illness.
I didnt say anything about trans people in my original comment, and deliberately didnt quote the original post as its language disgusts me. Again, sorry for any offence caused, it was not intentional.

So why did you repeat the “mental illness” part?
If you really mean what you’re saying just take the L this one time and move on.
There are many people like this, who hate Firefox and love Brave/Chromium, hate GNOME, hate Rust, hate Systemd and so on. It is easy to identify these chuds once you talk to them for a little while, or sometimes even observing their internet commentary.
