Its so easy to brush away aphobia as “Cringey aces being dramatic on the internet on no reason lololol “ when you see “true” oppression as “people being killed for their identity” and not the numerous ways society makes marginalized community feel that they are broken,wrong and are disgusting for existing and dont belong among the society.This includes harassment on the internet too because the people harassing ace people for being ace on the internet are real people too.
Genocide is the last stage of oppression for an identity and the fact that you think that bigotry against some identity has to reach the stage where the people of that identity are being killed for them to be “truly oppressed” then you are a despicable person and have no idea how resistance and social justice work.
