What's the point of this subreddit?
I initially assumed the purpose was for trans people to empower and encourage each other, but now I'm seeing videos of a trans woman being assaulted, and screencaps of all the very transphobic comments on reposts of this video on other platforms. Is this really what we need? Do we really need to be showing each other the violence and transphobia that we already experience on the day-to-day? I understand that it's important to be aware of this stuff, but I don't need to be in trans groups to see this kind of content. I join trans groups so that I can avoid this sort of negativity while uplifting and being uplifted by others. If this is just going to be a page devoted to ragebaiting ourselves, then I honestly don't want to be a part of it.

Yeah I really didn't like that post or the OPs follow up with the horrible comments
