Its not. You can go look at the 430k+ user subreddit "AreTheStraightsOK" as evidence that its "fine" when they [trans people] demonize other groups of people but absolutely horrible and vile when people criticize them.
There's a perfect example of this, actually. Usually when one of these kinds of subreddits pops up a complimentary, opposite one is created to poke fun at the original and the people using it, which in this case would be "AreTheTransOk". Want to take a guess as to what happened to that? Take a look for yourself: https://old.reddit.com/r/arethetransok/ (and this https://old.reddit.com/r/arethelgbtok/)
You can ignore this though. "telling trans people they’re evil and messed up." is fine on its own because it falls under free speech, which of course includes speech that neither I nor you like, and is correct as nothing I said in my post is incorrect. John Money was evil. He was a pedophile that experimented on children that eventually committed suicide as adults. Bringing children to drag shows with "Its Not Gonna Lick Itself" on the wall is evil. Men playing dress-up and competing in women's sports is extremely unfair and cruel to the women that spent years training to reach a professional level of athleticism. There are numerous accounts from post-trans people themselves in https://old.reddit.com/r/detrans/ that very deeply regret the surgical procedures they received, and consistently speak of lifelong medical problems as a result.
Are the trans ok? NO.
>This is a funny complaint, since vast swaths of America have this exact sentiment towards trans people.
Wrong. The vast sentiments that exist are that people want to be left alone, and don't want annoying people skulking around and screeching at everything.
