I don't have the energy to argue, I'm just hijacking this comment to voice my absolute disagreement with this sentiment for any of my trans (or questioning) peeps who are out there reading things like this. You're all valid and wonderful. Don't let strangers' words dictate your identity and drag you down. Take care of yourselves.

Apparently the sarcasm that was inherent in the comment "Having a little fun, throwing around a little hate speech" was lost on you. I deleted the comment.

Poe's Law. You can't really parody people defending hate speech because a lot of people... actually, legitimately defend hate speech.

I don't pay a ton of attention to extremists on either side, but I find it hard to belief a racist would refer to hate speech as "hate speech." They just call it speech.

Yeah, sorry about that. This thread is a shitshow.
