Most Americans believe that it’s a “problem” that Republicans are transphobic.

A new YouGov poll asked Americans whether they thought that certain issues were a “problem” for either party. 44% said that transphobia was “a major problem” among Republicans, and another 24% said they thought it was “a minor problem.” Only 32% of respondents said it wasn’t a problem.

Transphobia was the second most likely issue to be labeled a problem by respondents, after “hostility toward immigrants.” “Tolerance of political violence,” “conspiracy thinking,” “white supremacy,” “homophobia,” and “fascism” followed closely behind.

Oddly, 40% of respondents said that “transgender ideology” was “a major problem” for Republicans, and another 20% said it was “a minor problem.” 41% said that they didn’t think it was a problem at all for Republicans.

    I got a violation on reddit, on a sub someone posted about how there were 50 genders and he only slept with one, and had symbols for all the genders.

    I just posted he seemed to be spending a lot of time thinking about transexuals banging.

    Who knew triggering conservatives was against the rules? The ones crying the loudest about being cancelled see themselves as victims and justified in flagging everything that triggers them, that they don’t like.

    Just like vote theft. Convinced by their influencers the other guys are cheating they feel justified cheating to even the score. Unaware, or not caring that they were never the victims but the perpetrators, projecting on their victims.

    Their politicians and media rail against moderation and put pressure on social media when their people get moderated against. Meanwhile the democrats are conservative and want the left cancelled as much as anyone. They have nothing but contempt and spite for the left, and crave the approval of the right. So social media ends up discriminating against the left.

      Conservatives don’t cancel, in their minds, because being cancelled is inherently unjust according to them. It’s unjust because it pretty much only happens to them as they’re the ones doing heinous shit to people, and they don’t pay attention when someone who isn’t openly conservative gets cancelled for bad behaviour.

      They live in the alternate relaity built for them by their media and they lack the ability to pause when they hear something a little crazy and check it out.
