I didnt invent any term, I told you I learned it. It also has an entry on dictionary.com.

Look, on a day when a trans woman was strangled to death after her date found out she was trans

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/78266182

it just seems in pretty poor taste to argue that theres nothing wrong with these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans.

Concern trolling is all Ive seen from you. The article I linked doesnt even suggest you are necessarily communicating in bad faith:

Interestingly, the Geek Feminism Wikia notes that "concern trolls are not always self-aware; they may also view themselves as potential allies who have just, oddly, never met a feminist opinion they liked."

You invented it as a label for me. I've never said "hey I'm not honestly saying these things, I'm 'concern trolling'"

I question the need to label me and interact with me as a label and not as an individual.

"it just seems in pretty poor taste to argue that theres nothing wrong with these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans."

Let's unpack this premise you are suggesting:
Guy who strangles trans person = these dudes who are this fucking caught up in their bullshit machismo that they spend all day every day on a video game forum expressing how mortified theyd be to find out their date was trans = anybody who would not want to date a trans person

You never explicitly made that suggestion, but your language completely made that suggestion. So please clarify if you are indeed making that suggestion that the 3 groups of people are largely equivalent or not. Because I certainly don't believe they are. Please answer this question first.

Secondly what do you mean by "bullshit machismo"? Is there a way a man could value or care about his masculinity that you would not find to be bullshit?
