I can't not see it, it's part of what makes me so cynical these days.
I do realize that. One of those traits that has its good and bad uses, I suspect.

They're just coincidentally extra skeptical when the topic crosses their ideology? Like how some people here have radically different opinions on "hacking" depending on if we're talking a bad orange man's tax returns vs a certain laptop?
Why wouldn't people be extra skeptical of matrix posting articles related to trans people? matrix has been very clear that he's pro bigotry against trans people via religious justifications something something blah blah hates woke leftist liberalism and anything to do with basic dignity, respect, and human rights being afforded to trans people and other marginalized groups.

If a teacher was forced to call a student named Fred "Saint Fred" and have to refer to him as "Brother", I would have the same objection. The same goes for an employer or coworker etc.
When it comes to trans itself, I think 78 genders is going too far. Even Erica Anderson, a transgender clinical psychologist, has said teenage transitions have “gone too far.”

False equivalency. He was instructed to use preferred pronouns, not to refer to someone as Saint or King or whatever other nonsense title you want to come up with.
Wth are you talking about 78 genders ?

What's the difference?
You’re not familiar with the difference between pronouns and fictitious titles?
Google is your friend. Lookup the definitions and study hard.

That’s not why he got sent to jail. The thread title is misleading. He got sent to jail for violating a court order that instructed him to stay away from the school.

Both whatever name the child comes up with and pronoun are at play. Technically all Christians are saints. So "Saint Fred" would not be a fictitious title for a Christian. And since one has to call the child by whatever name they choose to identify as, there can't be any names that are considered factious. If a child wants to be called Queen Matilda (ala Queen Latifah) then that's what you're supposed to call him.

Names trans people choose to reflect their gender identity and the pronouns they prefer to be called by are not the same thing as stage names chosen by celebrities, actors, stage performers or porn stars. Not sure how you can't grasp that concept.
