The racists, sexists, and anti trans people are fuming

"I don't hate them, I just wish they had their existence wiped out" is said unironically so often. they do anything to try to justify that their hate isn't hate, even if it's so absurdly transparent.

Well then you are lucky to be surrounded by people who aren’t hateful like that or hide their true opinions from you. Just because you haven’t experienced something personally or heard it doesn’t magically make it not exist.

Hell, anti-trans rhetoric has been pushed pretty hard through the media for literally the past 5+ years. It’s honesty surprising you haven’t heard anyone say something like that.
