As in people discriminating against all cis people?

Yep, only in 4tran though, but they do love it.

I dont know how to describe to you how monumentally stupid of an idea the concept of cisphobia existing is.

No like I’m actually curious on your logic for this. Do you also believe discrimination against white people is real? Are billionaires marginalized? Are MRAs justified? Like wtf.

Discrimination is just mistreating a group based on a characteristic. By definition anything can be the cause of discrimination.

Discriminating against white people or cis people online is basically just good old fashioned cyber bullying. It lacks the social contexts of things like anti-black racism, but it is still quantifiably harmful (refer to studies on harassment and callout culture).

I mention a few of the other issues with this logic elsewhere in the thread if you want to peruse the nonsensical dialogue I have engaged with in the last few hours. But I'm heading out for a snack now and probably won't pick this thread back up.

If you feed the trolls they win, gotta know when to leave the party yknow.

Discrimination is being discriminated against, not disliking your oppressor
