To be honest, you can't blame mainstream gays and lesbians getting pissed at pedophiles trying to coat-tail off the gay rights movement. Transpeople are a different matter. You had transpeople even during the time of the prophet (Muhammed) and interacted with him. One of them had a wife and family. I draw the line between mainstream transgendered individuals and a freak who suddenly proclaims he's a woman and wants to change in a woman's locker room.
I think the biggest thing about the trans movement is that its still having definitions, like back during the Stonewall riots you had drag queens and other groups that enjoyed acting like the opposite gender, but that wasn't a whole sexuality to most people. Look at Dog Day Afternoon, the gay dude robbing a bank to afford money for his boyfriend's sex change operation, but up until maybe a decade ago they wouldn't categorize that as a movie with a tranny in it. it would have just been a movie about a fag and his boyfriend.
and you're right there were tons of trannies that just didn't identify as such and weren't identified as such because that whole concept of it being its own sexuality wasn't really talked about.
pedos have a similar thing, like if you're a dude trying to stick your dick in a 16 year old, in most places in the world outside of the US, you weren't distinct from the rest of society. you might have been considered a creep, but so were race mixers, who ironically enough went from a distinct group on par with pedos, to just being considered a normal part of society.
the gay thing, from what my college professors said, mainly has different issues regarding age of consent because the gay population is so much lower. in a city of a million people, a gay person might only have 5k partners to chose from at maximum, and that's counting the closeted, so they sort of have to abandon a lot of normal sexual rules just to get laid. Its similar to how every white supremacist seems to have a non-white girlfriend, you can't be picky if the number of partners is so fucking low for some reason.
like if one day 99.5% of the population fucking vanished, damn straight the remaining population isn't going to give a flying fuck about age of consent or other issues. you're just lucky to have a relationship at that point.
Why was Pride Month pretty weak this year? It wasn't just Trump taking away the USAID money that funded social activist programs like pride parades, another big reason was various Jewish progressive activist groups pulling their funding away from many Pride-related events this year over a sizeable chunk of the LGBT community criticizing Israel and they're partnering with commies that oppose Israel and Zionism
to be fair, this was bound to happen, Zionism is like being pro-South Africa in the 1980s, every fucker that went to school was practically taught their entire lives that what's going on there is fucking bad, so unless you're personally related to the conflict you're not going to give a fuck and have a stronger issue outside of what you're told.
Its like asking anyone not in Asia about the Dalai Lama, outside of what we catch from pop culture or school we won't have anything resembling a hold on the issue and therefore will probably be pro-Lama, whereas the chinks have an entirely different set of views because they actually know whats going on.
You'd be shocked how many boomers don't realize Nelson Mandela was a huge Hamas and Hezbollah fanboy and openly said it was one struggle, and not only that, but South Africa and Israel themselves said the same shit, which is why they were so closely aliled.
And let's be more honest its not like niggers are less homophobic than muslims, both once they assimlate treat them mostly better but its just as silly to be BLM as it is to be anti-zionist.
And even when they're up, they only have 2500 - 3000 active users. Only 900 can be bothered to log in and post, so those are the hardcore users. The rest are just lurkers. When you put this in perspective, this is a tiny userbase. At their peak popularity, the Groypers were 10,000 people as one example before they fell from grace.
much like how Josh's age keeps falling to the point he is now under 10 when blocklands happens, the DAU count keeps surging every time Josh brings it up, he's claiming 15k DAU, despite most users being like AnOmnius and clearly spending 8+ hours a day logged in and shitposting.
You really telling me Toji or Welperhelper or Catchtherainbow have jobs that mean they have to log off and touch grass at any point?
its pretty fucking obvious that not only is the userbase small, the few remaining are of lower quality than they were a few years back. Null banning anyone doing deep dives on counts like @All becomes gunt doesn't help matters. Most of the users seem to be going after each other vs talking about lolcows.
literally the most active parts of the site thanks to the BP takeover are those grooming parts, where the pro-epstein Welperhelper99 and other pro-epstein users try and go after anyone that null labels a lolicon enthusiast
