    I don’t understand why transphobic fascists get so upset when their transphobic fascist posts are criticized.

    The issue is when people, probably like yourself, incorrectly call things transphobia and fascism, while excusing your own side for their fascist tendencies (like silencing opposition, controlling narratives on social media, etc).

    99% of what is called “transphobia” and “fascism” online these days is neither.

    Person 1: “Drag queens shouldn’t be allowed to perform sexually charged strip teases for children. It’s inappropriate even if it was a straight white male doing a strip tease and acting that way.”

    Person 2: “Nazi! Fascist! Transphobe!”

      I’d say calling for the eradication of trans people is both transphobic and fascist.
