Leftist: oh you think it's ok to say the n word! You probably think the Nazis were right too.
Normal Person: I don't want schools lying to me about my kids gender and don't think kids should be at sexually suggestive drag shows.
Leftist: oh you don't think trans people have the right to exist. You probably think the Nazis were right too.
