This is pretty much my stance.

A whole lot of what the right gets uppity about is none of falls strictly in the 'none of their fucking business' category

A common dog whistle for the right is individual rights and freedoms... Yet they get hung up on things like trans rights which are checks notes individual rights and freedoms

Yeah, but you forget about their individual right and freedom not to feel offended.

More like their right and freedom to feel superior to others by invalidating them.

I wish it was only invalidating. This is actively kicking them down.
