it's also demoralizing that ppl will not stand up for us on principle, instead needing the recognition that our marginalization can be used as a vector to attack others before they'll bother caring. like the damage that could be done to trans ppl alone should be enough for ppl to care
Protecting you guys is absolutely correct on principal alone. It’s also a fact that you guys get singled out first by these people because your such a tiny community and so vulnerable they feel safe attacking you first.
And there’s a lot of people who’ve never met anyone from the community and aren’t principled enough to do the right thing if it isn’t going to hit them too
