What these chucklefucks are asking for is to make ALL Discord content indexable and searchable, even extremely private intimate things, and that’s absolutely unacceptable.

That’s just rhetoric people tell themselves to convince themselves they have power they actually don’t.

You know what happens when you tell an enemy you forgive them? They respond, “Excellent! I’m no longer responsible for doing THIS,” and then they repeat the behavior you sold out your self-respect thinking you could score a gotcha moment over.

The real answer if you actually bother to ask right wingers is that they genuinely feel disgusted and repulsed at trans/NB people, and they’re only acting on their emotions.

Stop simping for evil corporations that don’t give a shit about you.
