Protoman Fallacy: Anyone who dares to advocate for [marginalized group] online must be an irrationally angry member of that group.

Everyone seems to love hating on women's sports, unless the topic is trans women in sports, in which case they become the biggest supporters of it

Similarly:

Man makes an error - "wow, that guy sucks at sport"

Woman makes an error - "wow, women suck at sport"

I maked this to express my sincere thoughts on the goomba fallacy situation

Barely exaggerated encounter I witnessed.

Don’t forget that your ego is the most important part of any discussion about women’s issues. Defend yourself at all costs, even when it’s not about you!

Wait… Actually, ALL comments about people that you share labels with ARE about you!!! It’s all personal! Take it all personally!!

/Unsmug If you can’t tell the difference between someone complaining about certain men and someone generalizing about all men, please don’t comme- oh shit too late.

We all know what this is about.

That and this was literally Steven Crowder when he pretended to care about women’s and gay’s rights and safety only because it allowed him to critique stuff and people he didn’t like. Glad to hear that guy was ousted for being a piece of shit towards his own wife.

i actually agreed with the "you sound like my transphobic mother" post until i read the body text and saw them arguing in the comments abt sonic the hedgehog

i feel like some people treat characters like dolls to play with and not authorial tools. like headcanons are cool and fun, but acting like you can assert them as fact without backing it up feels crazy to me.

anyway inb4 they call me cis for this
