    Well, on behalf of trans people everywhere, I’d like to thank you for taking a brave stance against transphobia by checks notes joking about trans people killing themselves. So brave 👏

      And let’s not forget forget you, out there chastising people for posting anti-transphobe memes.

      You’re really doing your part to silence those against transphobia. I’m sure the other tankies are pleased.

        “Anti-transphobe!” A meme joking about trans people killing ourselves is “anti-transphobe!”

        Least performative liberal “ally”

          Mocking transphobes =/= joking about trans suicide.

          Like I said – it went over your head.

            Joking about trans suicide = joking about trans suicide. It didn’t go over my head, you just didn’t understand why I objected to it.

              Including X in a joke about Y does not make the joke about X.

              You didn’t get it.

                    This meme is on the subject of and concerning trans suicide, it is, objectively, a joke about trans suicide.
