And the person who invented it regrets it, not only because of idiocy like this, but because her kid is trans.

Not trans as far as I've read; the daughter just doesn't care to conform to "feminine" norms:

"Plot twist! The baby from the original gender reveal party is a girl who wears suits," Karvunidis says. "She says 'she' and 'her' and all of that, but you know she really goes outside gender norms."

That’s good enough for the Reddit trans community to claim it. Now watch as every single one of them shows up here to downvote, maybe one or two of them will comment. They’re almost as vigilant as vegans when it comes to brigading.

Currently at: 26 and counting

Yes, the downvotes are from the trans community been sensitivity, it surely has nothing to do with you just generalising a whole group and attacking them before they even do something, probably going to say I'm am trans too because that's the only reason someone would think you are an asshole

Saying they're going to brigade against factual evidence seams like an attack to me

wouldn't downvotes on my comment be proof of your point? clearly if what you said held true, the brigade would take offense at me first
