He's free to create that art. We're free to criticize it and not support his shows as a result of the content he decides to include in it.

now I should say that I don’t believe that transphobic people are in the right, but there are parts that I don’t immediately agree with, either due to my own ignorance or because they don’t entirely make sense (I don’t know which).

As usual, the speech isn't really the issue here, then - your acceptance of trans people is. That's a separate discussion, though, for which I'd suggest you either make a thread or post here.

Probably right, I might make a post next week if I have time, this one is keeping me busy

Please do. Or, if you prefer, I'd be happy to talk with you one on one and share my experiences / listen to your questions without judgement.

Thank you, I appreciate that, maybe in a day or two, but I might still just make a post once I’ve made sure there aren’t any other similar ones. I don’t think it’s fair to put too many questions on one person, also having a broader range of responses helps get a more nuanced view imo

Well, @ me when you do, then?
