No this bad person happens to be trans or at least claim to be.

There’s nothing stopping gay, trans or other minorities from also being awful shit people who deserve to rot in jail.
Hell there’s even this fun concept where people weaponize the fact they are in a minority group as a way to attack others or to try to protect themselves from retaliation for horrid acts they do.
Chris chan is in fact a racist sexist predatory mentally ill trans person.

I identify as someone who would never weaponize their identity.
SeptugenarianSenate@leminal.space 3 weeks ago
real talk though for what its worth I have met a litany of people throughout my life who have “weaponized” their masculinity or femininity by relying on some cliche about either gender to rationalize some behavior, preference, or perspective that they have about themselves or the world which seem to be toxic or have the capacity to be needlessly harmful to others, or to normalize their bad behavior at the expense of others. and it’s worth mentioning that the couple people I have known who identify as trans in my life don’t ever seem to weaponize their trans identity in those types of ways (at least not around me or in ways that I have ever been able to feel imposed upon or threatened by, though reading people’s body language or other subtle cues for signals of different emotions has never been an area that I have excelled in, though I know people who are worse than me at it as well)

Lumping in would be saying “all people who defend trans folx have a tendency to defend all trans folx, even if they are horrible indefensible people” such as you have been doing. I saw no such “lumping in”, by either you or chippy in the comments above. they chose to include that descriptor maybe as a subtle way to associate this Chan person with other transitioned people, but I don’t think “lumping in” is the exact words I would think to use in such a statement of (biased, but not universalizing) selection of descriptors

Lotta words to explain how you’re DEFINITELY not transphobic 😒

You ever hear the phrase “if I had more time I’d have written a shorter letter”?
AI could have written a more thought out reply lmao

They gave a thoughtful and well written response to you that was not transphobic in the slightest.
Maybe it’s time for you to log off and live in the real world for a moment.

Are you unaware of who Chris Chan is?
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
We all do. Listing “trans” and “autistic” in the middle of a list of abhorrent traits/behaviors they have/committed is a blatant indicator of transphobia regardless of who we’re talking about.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Your just coming across as morally the equivalent of a Nazi defender, because they are trans they can’t also be a racist, sexist Nazi? Who is a horrid person and should be banned from the internet and likely locked in a jail cell?
fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
They are saying that they dislike that the Nazi being trans/autistic is being mentioned at all, it’s not relevant to their “being horrible”-ness even if those labels technically apply, so since the list of things they are described by has so many horrible things,it seems to imply that those are the things by which they should be hated for,not just generic descriptive labels, which is why seeing those two specific non horribleness defining traits stand out. I don’t really care but just trying to clarify. ILYSM

Where is the defence in that comment? They are just saying being trans is not relevant at all.
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
That’s not what they said.
Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s relevant if its been used successfully in a court of law to defend a rape they commited. Or the individual in question has used being trans to excuse non consensual sexual deviance. This is a discussion about an individual not a group. Nuance and context are important.
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Cope harder, transphobe.
If you’re gonna do it and defend it, grow a pair and own up to it. 😒
Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago

Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I used one of their many descriptors, you zeroed in on that one. All of the labels apply to this individual, that is the extent of the statement.
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You chose to list “trans” and “autistic” in a list of otherwise abhorrent behaviors/traits about Chris. Get real.
Leaving things borderline unambiguous like this is how transphobes speak. If you’re not, I don’t recommend mirroring them. 🤷🏼♀️
Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You can choose the impact of the statement, I know it’s intent. As would any reasonable person.
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
And I wouldn’t recommend defending Chris chan who is a horrid person who uses their labels to attack others and to hide from repercussions.
It makes you look like a biggot.
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
If you think identifying transphobia is to defend Chris, you’re the problem.
northface@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
Nobody is defending Chris from what I’ve seen.
They’re merely pointing out that including “trans” in the list of negative traits about Chris makes OP appear transphobic.
