On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)

        Think before you start acting like one of the worst things in human history.

          Honestly… If I was going to be a transphobe, it would be because how you lot act on here, not due to actual right wing influences. Thankfully I have spoken to a few people who are transgender activists who are actually respectful, decent, and well grounded people. But the proportion of people I come across who aren’t at least makes me want to have nothing to do with the movement itself. Which is a real shame, because a few transgender people I have come across and know are lovely, but there’s a large voice out there giving them a bad name, and I feel like that voice may be contributing to the current political shift.

            "First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;” who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season.”

            This quote gets a lot of use, I know, but it’s because there are so many Enlightened Centrists out there keeping it relevant.

              I agree that trans people and black people should have equal rights including one to dignity and not face harassment for being trans/black. So no, it’s not the same.

                Yes, King covered that: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action”
