Someone replies to a comment I made 1-2 years ago, I ask what I said wrong, they reply with a pretty logically flawed answer, I point out the flaws in their argument, and now she's responded to me, but I can't see it because I'm blocked. OnO. Tried to find it on a different account, but couldnt. Found some gems, though.
So just because I know a certain-somebody is going to be snooping all over my account even though I haven't used it in years, I've decided to bring some things to light for her. Firstly, dear, how dare you be so transphobic as to reblog this:

Look at that! They said "ftm" and you didn't even point out how awful and offensive it is and how all those poor men were misgendered! I guess we're both transphobic, then, huh?
Anyway, on a more serious note: look at this idiocy.
You likened saying "being trans isn't a choice" (which it isn't btw) to being okay with eugenics? What kind of mental gymnastics did you pull for that one? Not to mention that simply saying that being trans isn't a choice is apparently the same as wanting to hurt trans people. It's honestly hilarious. Like, even transphobes aren't automatically calling for lynchings. They're just misguided most of the time, and a bit of clemency and understanding goes a lot longer of a way than being baldly ignorant and aggressive.
Your response to this person completely shutting down your argument is the saddest part, though.
Y'know... Humility is a virtue, and honey, I suggest you go looking for some. It's okay to be wrong sometimes, that's how you grow as a person.
For example, I used to think it was transphobic to say that dysphoria is a requirement for being trans, but I was met with hard evidence that people who claim to be trans but feel no dysphoria are not actually trans and simply like to play around with social gender norms as well as medical proof that trans people's brains function like the brains of the gender they identify as and rather than claim medical professionals and older, wiser trans people were transphobic, I realized I was wrong.
Being trans isn't a choice. You need dysphoria to be trans. And saying "ftm" and "mtf" is not transphobic. Also, being transphobic does not automatically make someone okay with eugenics and violence. It's understandable to be afraid of transphobic people, but being a cunt to them isn't going to make them change their minds. (: Have a nice day, miss. Hope you can find the strength to be humble and grow as a person.
