TC, having discussions here isnt useful and its, for the most part, a waste of time.

The only people engaging are those who are blatantly bigots and the echo chamber leftists. So if you try to be neutral, you will always look bad because CE is so accustomed to confronting bigots and trolls. So you will get associated with the trolls by default.

If you notice, the relatively good posters who typically post with good content almost never engage in topics like this. Because why bother? The only poster Ive seen who is logical that engages every now and then is Conflict. But even then, its limited to observations.

Im running a risk, because Ive tried to stand up for folks who seemed reasonable but turned out to be concern trolls. Which made me look bad. But your posts in this topic seem genuine enough.

The logical posters and the fencesitters just will never actually post. So posting anything against being extremely progressive will look like bigotry or idiocy by comparison.

Add in folks repeatedly misrepresenting your character via past events, and you just wont have much luck. Trying to correct the misinformation about you just looks like melting down to folks. If you ignore the accusations, well, now people believe it.

And even then, nobody here believes in change. Something could have happened two years ago, and posters here will continuously bring it up as if people are stagnant in their beliefs. How many folks voted Trump but realized through time that they were stupid af?

And then you just have folks talking pass eachother other. Your example of who to talk calmly too probably doesnt include folks seeking genocide. But folks in this topic respond immediately with So you think trans people should talk calmly to people trying to commit genocide on them??. No one is talking about the same thing.

So in conclusion, dont post about certain things here. Its just not productive.
