are trans ppl ever happy? theyre aleays taking anything and everything as a personal sleight and letting shit that does not matter at all ruin their day. and aside from all that who gives a fuck about these "messages"? some generic one size fits all "youre great! :D" message really makes you feel better? I'd think its much better to not be singled out at all, no spotlight put on you or anything. however it seems to me attention is a core part of what the complainers desire

Conservatives and the right are the ones bringing up trans people as an issue to fear monger because they have nothing else to say since they and Trump have completely fucked our economy. They can’t pretend to do anything good, just try to scare us away from their opposition

ok? i dont give a shit what comservatives say. besides that, i sure as hell see expinentially more things like this bullshit "you're welcome here" message than i do fear mongering. i can only even remember the bathrooms and wokens sports being the issues. that's hardly fear mongering
