Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than MH27 MH17

I’m not going to assume your position here, but this really comes off as some “all lives matter” style counter protesting.

Agreed with Deestan. It’s about treating all humans, be them straight, lesbian, gay, bi, trans, queer/questioning, asexual, pan, and all elements of the rainbow that aren’t covered by the above as equals. We are all part of the human race, Homo sapiens sapiens.

You get how unhelpful this is, right? Like, do you go to abortion rights protests and preach the same bs? Or gay rights marches? You’re not helping anyone with this “actually, everyone deserves these rights” garbage. “Everyone” doesn’t face the same problems, so just let people advocate for their rights as they see fit instead of trying to kneecap them for the sake of “equality”.

I get your perspective, and I think we are both trying to at least meet in the middle with how we are trying to explain our takes. By all means, I truly do think that minority groups should have more support and have the right to be heard and seen than the “societal norm”. I guess I was just trying to see both sides and trying to determine a midpoint. The “All Lives Matter” movement easily falls in line with many other conservative spiels, and I’m trying to see the best in people in that what they mean isn’t trying to side with the heavier right wing movements. Again, I’m not trying to belittle or minimize the trans rights movement or anything in which minority groups aren’t being heard. I guess I just wish we lived in a society where everyone was treated as equal, and any hate groups were quieted to the best of our ability, slowly erasing those archaic viewpoints.

It’s more like the opposite - it is an argument that the rights of trans people aren’t some new exotic social movement that we need to think carefully about. It’s that regular human rights that we already mostly agree on should naturally apply to trans people.

I definitely see that angle, hence the not assuming, but "um actually"ing a social progress motto isn’t a great look, especially with the existence of “*all lives matter” hanging around.

Also, the whole motto is “Trans Rights are human rights”, so that’s quite literally already laid out.
