Not really -- I've been here for years, which you'll see from my account history -- I didn't just create an account to shit on trans people.

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.

So, you've used a recently resurrected account to engage on this specific issue, mostly by calling people disingenuous, transphobic bigots, in a series of long and rambling comments.

Do you believe that this approach to expressing disagreement has been effective?

Not resurrected at all, interactions aren't always public -- but keep assuming.

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.
