>well clearly your hate is morally superior and thus you're justified in your hate opposed to another

Uh, yes? And you prove my point? Because when you give this scenario:

>say a far left person wearing a bunch of pride badges gets attacked in public for no apparent reason, you will still see a far right person assist in defending the individual they fundamentally disagree

Then the far-right person will earn my respect, not my hate, because it defended the basic dignity of someone attacked for what they are. We could even start a conversation on why they helped someone they think is a "pervert abomination" that "destroys civilization". See, I don't hate the far-right guy for things he can't change about himself, but for his beliefs and hurtful actions at this point in time. The second he stops being hurtful, I have no reason to hate him anymore.

Whereas for the guys who hate women/black people/brown people/Jews etc..., you can't do anything to change for the better, except cease to exist, either by physically dying, or socially dying aka. becoming subhuman/noncitizen.

>regardless you saying that those who are far right hate people for something they can't change is just as funny as that first comment in the article, because for example, phrases like 'assigned male at birth' which is literally someone born as male then cosplaying a female. how is that someone who is "what they are and cant change"? i can personally find that to be revolting but it doesn't change reality.

How exactly are you personally affected by "someone born as male then cosplaying as a female"? You find it revolting but why should you care about their private choices who affect only themselves? Why do you feel you have to interject and meddle and attack? The only "obligation" you may have is to call them by a different pronoun than the one you would like to use. Is that such a "violence" that you feel justified in hating them and denying them rights, job promotions, fighting for their country (voluntarily!) and going to a water closet? Do you feel also violence by basic politeness like when you have to tell someone ugly they are looking rather nice?

i am not personally affected in any capacity by trans gender individuals, nor do i hate them, i just find those people to be rather strange and don't want their public displays of indecency to be witnessed by children. if I saw a trans gender person being attacked by someone wearing a MAGA hat, i will aggress upon the attacker in defence of them, regardless of if that attacker shares some of my own beliefs, he clearly doesn't share my belief in a civil society. i extend that same sentiment of protection to any person regardless of who they might be. if someone hates a person for being women/black people/brown people/Jews etc then they are just fucked in the head and heart. i think you might be confusing my disgust with their personal choices for hate, but say a bill was proposed that would directly and harmfully impact the life of someone i disagree with, i would vote against that. i don't want people having a hard life. now say a bill was proposed to grant additional rights to the trans gender individuals which begins to erode rights and spaces specifically designated for the female sex, then those trans genders are not seeking equality and that too, i would vote against. clearly compassion is viewed differently by both sides too, since you believe it to be compassionate to tell a trans gender women that he is a women. i believe it to be compassionate to tell trans gender women that he is a man. no other self generated belief someone has about themself are affirmed except for gender...

I am sorry, but I can't discuss with someone holding incoherent beliefs. You can't say you find someone revolting and that you don't hate them; you are contradicting yourself. You say you aren't personally affected and then say how they affect you personally. Sort yourself out.

>say a bill was proposed that would directly and harmfully impact the life of someone i disagree with

Like being seen in public?

>i don't want people having a hard life.

Trans people are some of the most assaulted people there is right now. You want a trans women to be forced to use men's toilets, where they will be insulted, groped, spit on, punched, and assaulted. You are not the benevolent person you think you are. Face it! Talk with trans people and see how out of touch you are.

> You want a trans women to be forced to use men's toilets

They are men, so this is what they should be using. Or unisex facilities if available.

> where they will be insulted, groped, spit on, punched, and assaulted

The prospect of male-on-male violence, or the rhetorical fantasy of it, is no reason to permit males to impose themselves upon female spaces.

just because i find something to be disgusting does not mean i hate it. if i see a poo on the ground when i am walking down the street i find that disgusting but i don't hate the poo, the dog or the owner. perhaps events beyond my understanding occurred leading to the disgusting display on the street but nowhere is hate present in my mind nor heart. there is a very close correlation between disgust and hate but no causation so you're fair in your assumption but i don't concede that disgust causes hate. trans gender women (biological males) should use the men's toilet, yes. places like toilets and locker rooms only need a male and female because we split those based on sex, not gender. those are places which were split due to the (major) physical differences between our sexes, so why would i allow a man with an incongruence between his mind and body to enter the area where i let my daughter or niece enter to conduct their private business? he is welcome to use the gents with the rest of us and again, if he is actually assaulted then me and/or most other men are going to assist in the defence of his physical safety instead of mindlessly joining in on an assault of someone because he made the decision to look as freaky and disgusting as possible.
