    Would you be willing to tell us about it? Why is life so much worse now than the period of stuff like the AIDS crisis, Operation Soap, Section 28 and Romer v Evans… Before the widespread recognition amd legalization of same sex marriage and the lowered barriers for trans people to change their identification documents that resulted.

    I think you have people legitimately confused for your reasons because a lot of that history is painted as essentially a war and mass genocide by inaction primarily of lesbian, gay and bisexual people. While I know of a few of my trans elders have said that there was less individual heat on trans identities as there are now, it still doesn’t seem like on the whole it was a great time. People were still murdered for being trans and a lot of the fight for non-binary trans people were struggling with much deeper form of erasure.

    I think people are concerned that what you are putting forward is your personal experience which may be narrower than the full encompassing experience of the entire LGBTQIA which it is assumed the question is being asked about. The birds eye veiw, of all the identities and the culture of the movement from that full ten year span. It’s generally assumed by younger people that most things are better now because at least we aren’t dropping like flies so it’s natural that the reaction to your opinion is disbelief.

      Would you be willing

      I’m not interested in indulging your hallucinations or drug induced hypotheticals. I Live it here, today. And if you’re not willing (or capable of) to deal with reality, then you clearly are not capable of having a rational conversation.

      Let me know when you’re out of rehab

        Ookay… That is a very outsized violent reaction. I think you may have had a bit too much internet for one day.

          I’m sorry this may be the first time that someone finally stood up to you and told you that you’re bat shit fucking insane, but this is actually quite a normal reaction to the type of person you are, and the things you said.

          If you wish to continue your behavior, expect more of this. I certainly am not going to stop calling you out.

          Lmao at you blaming me for your actions. Wow

          YOU choose to stop with your lies and hallucinations. YOU choose to stop replying with your mentally-ill suppositions. YOU alone are responsible for you actions.

          And I will continue to hold you to account until you stop. Don’t like it?

          THEN LEAVE
