@geophysicist@discuss.tchncs.de claiming that queer people are faking it is incredibly uncool and offensive. Stop doing it. You would not claim that a black man isn't really black because he says something you disagree with because you'd get knocked the hell out. Don't claim people's identities are fake because our politics are to the left of yours. You're literally just abusing other lgbt people with that sentiment by essentially stating "unless your politics align with mine I will deny you the right to your gender".

@oatscoop@midwest.social blahaj.zone did defend a transphobe, refusing to demod a person engaging in transphobia because they didn't want to rock the boat and lose the activity of that community definitely unsafe for trans people. They make decisions in favour of activity over trans safety. Being trans or having a shork aesthetic is literally irrelevant to whether they make good decisions for trans people, you wouldn't claim that Caitlyn Jenner is automatically safe for trans people by virtue of being trans, and if you would then you're an idiot because she'd sacrifice trans lives for her wealth any day of the week.
