The fact that you consider defending peoples' right to exist as "soapboxing" shows how disingenuous and false you are, but that's hardly surprising.
Keep reading the Sun and picking and choosing your rare, minority examples to spout your exclusionary views -- but I'm sure you've got better places to do that than HN.
I'm only commenting on it recently because bigots have been trying to police the existence of other human beings with boogeymen and BS rhetoric. I'm not sorry for that, and I don't care about you taking umbrage with it. Be better.
Do you believe that this approach to expressing disagreement has been effective?
You're criticising intelligent and evidence-backed responses because they're not baseless one-liners? Ok sweetie... Still waiting to hear about your history on HN... oh wait, there isn't one.
Do you believe coming to HN to spout hate and rhetoric is going to win you any fans, or bolster your clique?
Given the upvotes, agreement, and having ignorant people admit when they're wrong, it's a lot more effective than the vitriol you've spouted.

Your own account, which has public activity going back for less than a month, is almost entirely dedicated to soapboxing on trans issues.
Rather a case of the pot calling the kettle black, don't you think?
