The real victim?

  • The whole "die cis scum" rhetoric doesn't help.

    • As a cishet white guy, I know that such rhetoric is not aimed at me personally but rather the centuries-old cycle of privilege and oppression that I continue to benefit from today despite my personal beliefs and ideals.

      • You believe that explicitly advocating for the murder of a particular group of people is not actually aimed at those people?

    • Awww, poor cis people :'( We're only human, so sometimes we forget that cis people's delicate feelings are more important than ours and must always be kept in mind during any discussion.

      Even if that 'discussion' is literally just a cheap meme that you still couldn't help but "but whatabout cis people :(:(" at.

    • No, it doesn’t. Although I (a cishet white man) am against the marginalization of people, I also understand that real social change can be agonizingly slow. Cishet white men are going to continue to hold a disproportionate share of power for a while yet.

      Over generalization is a tool of the enemy. There are plenty of ways to make a point without alienating large groups of people, many of whom aren’t against you. For example, in the above meme, change “cishet white men” to “social conservatives”. The point is the same. If anything, it’s more accurate.

  • Gotta love it when bigots can't help but out themselves....
