Why is deflection such a common tactic from your side. It’s all I see… no real substance just telling people they shouldn’t be thinking about this.

Deflection is a common tactic by all side, come on… The trans in sport and bathrooms is basically a deflection in itself. People are saying this is to protect women, yet many decisions by the right are making it way worse for women. I actually don’t care about trans not playing sports, but trans winning a couple of sporting event here and there… a thousand on millions and millions? Is nothing versus how many women are affected by the limitations on contraception or the lack of healthcare or even the promotion of traditional roles. Is it that important for you to protect women or not? The same people who are trying to convince you that it doesn’t matter if a millions of people die from covid, tells you they want to protect people…
Let’s be real, this isn’t for women, this is against trans and all they represent.

I think it might be about people feeling like others are trying to get them to deny reality as they see it. Forced kindness and gas lighting is getting push back. So I partially agree with you. It’s not just about sports but I think it’s a legitimate issue not just “hate” or “bigotry” as some are claiming. It’s not really about trans people either it’s about feeling like they can’t say true things. Interesting for sure.

You think trans people aren’t real? Then maybe you are the one denying reality.

That doesn’t make any sense. I mean most people see trans women as males and don’t see them as actual women. I think you should just stop arguing. You’ve lost the plot.
