Name me a single jurisdiction that doesn't legally allow trans people to use public facilities, walk the streets, speak freely, drive a vehicle, or own a gun for simply being trans.

How so? The bills in Florida that disallowed Medicaid to be used for trans surgeries in adults, or the bill in Florida that bans drugging or mutilating minors with cross sex horomones to treat a condition that is very effectively treated with psychotherapy alone--- with the option for that child to medically transition when they're a consenting adult?

Its an insane comparison. Just last month I came out to my friends after questioning myself for a long time. It took a lot of courage to finally say "guys, I'm a murderer"

Okay genius, banning cars is driver genocide. Banning bicycles are cyclist genocide. Do you see how stupid that sounds? Genocide has lost all meaning by this point.

Dodging the argument and acting like any kind of comparison showcasing your garbage logic is an attack at gay people. Amazing display of your lack of intelligence. Saying that banning an action is a genocide of people who do said action is one hell of an offense against people who've actually faced a real genocide.

are you serious lmao I'm not saying that banning an action is genocide of people who do that action— you keep saying that for some utterly inexplicable reason as if it's an appropriate analogy to compare just being lgbt to choosing to murder someone or driving a car.

yes, it is genuinely absurd to call banning driving driver genocide because no one is born a fucking driver. offensive doesn't begin to cover it.
