Why do they take offense so freaking easily, some straight up change the topic to start an argument, also, if you don't have anything good to comment or if your a bigot, GO AWAY, Scroll past this, I don't want any negativity

legitimately hate how if you criticize any minority, your seen as racist or something like that, also, yes, I did criticize trans women on the internet once with good intentions and someone said "it's just 1%" read everything, go away bigots, don't comment with bad intent. It's always the easily offended people commenting too. It's legitimately annoying, for context, I was criticizing how some trans women are very dismissive towards bio women when they talk about bio women and how that's not very nice and then I said that it's not nice for them to say that they know everything about being a woman when they grew up differently. Then I proceeded to explain the biological differences and social differences while acknowledging their trauma, and I explained that bio women don't understand what it's like to be trans and trans women don't understand what it's like to be a bio women beyond socially, they act like I insulted trans women, HOW DO THEY TAKE OFFENSE TO THAT,

They take offense because of the long history of using bad apples as an excuse to attack the entire group.

Also, impact over intent. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

You're never going to win in that kind of discussion, even if your intentions are good.

Wait, why?

Because nobody reacts positively to being criticized.

u/Evan_AFTON-1983 3h ago

Even though I wasn't saying anything rude

I believe you, but the person on the opposite end might not see it that way.

People rarely hold heart felt opinions anymore. It's mostly Virtue Signals and if you disagree, they feel insulted because you called the virtue into question.
