You all make great points and this is the conversation I want to have. I want to be an ally. But I get shut down when I slip up. And for those who say this only happens online and not in real life, that's not true. We had someone at the office a few years back who transitioned from female to male during his time here, and it was really toxic. Immediately, we had people who really supported him and people who did not. But when the people who supported him slipped up, they got shamed moved the transphobe side until there as nobody left.



And this is one specific incident, but on issues like race and gender, from my experience, supporters can get shot down and accused very quickly for unintentional things which I find counter productive to an already marginalized group. Again, learn from each other, don't expect perfection.
