Yeah, I’m aware of that dog whistle and will try to avoid it. But a fact is that LGB rights have mostly been cemented in all the non-regressive parts of the world, and the rest of the letters (well, T at least) are still fighting. Some parts of that fight is legit (like I said elsewhere, demanding equal treatment is 100% fine), but some of it overcorrects.
But this thread was asking for non-popular opinions, so I guess I scored here. Here’s another: I don’t think being called transphobic is a much of an insult. Trans is weird and it’s normal to feel weird about it. Translating that feeling into denying their rights is deeply wrong, nevertheless. I believe trans activists should work on this angle more (perhaps they do already? I don’t follow them enough to know for sure), I believe that would win them support more easily from a wider audience, when compared to a strategy that demands acceptance on top of mere tolerance.
