honestly doing anything whatsoever with the explicit intent of distressing people is harassment so. yeah
kar
harassment is a very strong word
you think it’s okay to disallow it, but then go on to define harassment as anything which distresses people which is *very* dangerous
personally i dont really care about people calling me “he”, sure id prefer they didnt but im not going to act like its the end of the world, and neither should you
do people regularly call you “he” with intent to harm or distress you?
kar
intent can be a hard thing to determine sometimes, and in my opinion, completely irrelevant. to answer your question, sometimes, but if people want to be ignorant thats their loss. i dont see how it could harm someone.
murder is an example of a crime that requires you to judge the perpetrator’s intent. if you kill someone unintentionally then it’s a different crime, called manslaughter.

Trannies are so weak that they need the government to protect them from hurtful words. Wow, that’s awfully bigoted of you.
what are you talking about?? this has nothing to do with the comment you’re replying to
Anna Kalita
What? No. It judges actual action, not “intent”. Mostly the tools used. If you run someone over with a car, it’s an accident; if you stab someone, it’s murder; if you douse someone with gasoline and burn them, it’s murder with extreme cruelty, all judged by action performed.
if you run someone over with a car by accident, it’s an accident. if you run someone over with a car deliberately, it’s murder. :/

Anna Kalita
Where I live, there is no judging of the intent. Specifically because if judges were to determine the intent, it would create terrible legislative and judical mess.
kar
No, because I was fortunate enough to be born with this thing called a “spine”. Ever heard the old adage about sticks and stones?
of course, it’s the title of the cartoon we’re discussing. sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will leave deep-seated psychological scars that never heal. a classic adage.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
that’s sad
yeah, it’s really sad! that’s why i’m so careful about what i say to people
Stiffy Weiner
They aren’t ignorant, but honest, they’re still absolute assholes though. Which stings worse.
That’s the Achilles heel of right wingers, if they’re ever right, they’ll just express that information they know to try and convince people in the most offensive way, and it backfires hilariously.
Anna Kalita
Judging the intent is EXACTLY what defines it as thoughtcrime.
none at all I would prefer if you deleted your account and never said anything online that I am going to see every again, delete your youtube account, your runescape account anywhere you might type something delete it. Its the only way you can stop being a bully

Today I learned that trannies think being annoying is “harassment.” Goddamn, you people are mentally unwell.
The point being that there is no woman, but an insane man.
The proper pronoun for a man is “he” or “him”.
Do not encourage the insane in their insanities.
The law cannot force me to partake in someone else’s insanity.
There is no such thing as “misgendering”. There are men (he/him), and there are women(she/her). And then there are a few insane men and women who think they are other things, like Napoleon, rabbits, or pokemon.
so what are you doing if you meet a woman, call her a man, and use he/him pronouns to refer to her? it sounds like misgendering to me – do you have another word in mind?
not a lot, since arms aren’t wings and winged creatures aren’t capable of flying beyond the earth’s atmosphere. what does that have to do with anything?
Bandit Keith
i call trannies by their actual gender all the time
well good. it’d be better not to refer to us using an extremely well-known transmisiac slur though.

>that’s still not answering the question. what are you doing if you meet a woman, call her a man, and use he/him pronouns to refer to her?
“What are you doing if you’re doing X.”
I would say I’m doing X. You suck at writing.
>it’d be better not to refer to us using an extremely well-known transmisiac slur though.
“transmisiac” is as much not a word as there are more than two genders.
>do you actually have any scientific basis for those shitty beliefs?
Do you have any scientific basis that transgender people exist? I’m not talking about the 0.2% who have a birth defect, I’m talking about those who mutilate their genitals and demand to be called another gender
“I would say I’m doing X.” okay, so what is x? languages have standalone words for expressing specific concepts, so you don’t need to use lots of other words to express the same idea. there happens to be an existing word for this particular concept, and that word is “misgendering”.
“‘transmisiac’ is as much not a word as there are more than two genders.” so you’re saying either that “transmisiac” is indeed a word or that there are more than two genders. somehow i get the impression you didn’t actually want to say either of those things. in any case, of course it’s a word. i just used it in a sentence, and natural languages are defined by their usage.
“Do you have any scientific basis that transgender people exist?” yes? i’m a transgender person, and it’s completely obvious that i exist. i’m talking to you right now. i couldn’t do that if i didn’t exist. duh.

You’re either the best troll known to man or you’re just retarded kid that’s too dumb to communicate.
No, you can’t make up words, no you can’t make up genders, no you don’t exist for all I care. You’re probably just some unloved and ugly girl or boy who then mutilated their genitals and took hormones, trying to be accepted as the other gender. Too bad there’s no third gender, you’re just a mutilated whatever you were born as.
I don’t call dogs cats, and I don’t call water fire. Why would I ever call a man a woman? Unlike you, I am capable of noticing that different things are different, and using the English language to call things by their proper names.
For example: the proper term for men who think they are women is “insane men”. The proper term for women who think they are men is “insane women”. The proper term for people who would force insanities upon the general population is “evil”.
do you have any actual science to back up anything you just said?

Nah, nothing less than you being on a pike will do.

It is called chromosomes; go to any genetic scientist worth his salt and he will explain how that tiny Y makes a lot of difference on the inside. Don’t place feels over reals man.
i literally explained the scientific method in a comment on this comic so ummmmmm

Shitty beliefs? Just go fucking find a handgun, put it in your fucking mouth, aim it up at the top of your mouth toward your brain, pull the fucking trigger.

0.0000001 percent roughly. The others are mental disease.
Nothing you say is correct.
No, McChucks assertion of you being an evil insane moron is spot on, dead accurate!
Blarg Blarg
No, profoundly incorrect.
How can you be so wrong on every single level?
Christina Phillips
Gender is how the brain is structured. S*x is what the rest of the body is like. If they think like a male, might as well treat them like one, since you’ll get the expected responses from them if you do. Medically, they’re still female. For example.
White Makes Right
It sounds even more insane when you put it like this. You seriously think it should be illegal to call a woman “sir” or a man “ma’am”? You trannies are such myopic narcissists, it’s sickening.
i certainly am myopic! but hey, that’s why i wear glasses.
accidentally misgendering someone once isn’t a serious problem and isn’t a crime. deliberately and maliciously misgendering someone, especially repeatedly, is a massive problem and deserves to be illegal. they’re importantly different scenarios.
Blarg Blarg
No, there simply should be no people who insist on using another pronoun than the one that matches them biologically.
I ignore your politics because I think there’s actual skill in a lot of your critique, but this is kind of lazy. The bill only holds true for employers or people of power. Maybe make a joke about that? Not just blatant misinformation.
Seth Apex
that bill still violates the first amendment.
Stiffy Weiner
I mean, this applies in NYC.
Sam Greenaum
Most of this guy’s stuff is lazy caricatures. I mean idea-wise, not literally. Easily defeated with a minute’s thought, a “hey, wait…!”. Fortunately these days people view politics like football teams, and won’t look at their own side’s shortcomings, only supporting their own “team” mindlessly and picking on the opponents for any little thing, often things they’d forgive from their own side, things that don’t really bother them.
Politics has always been shit, but now it’s IQ has dropped down to that of sports. Not that all sport fans are stupid, but that even the clever ones aren’t engaging full brain when they’re in the mood.
People vote gladly for someone who’ll fuck them up the arse, as long as he claims to hate the same groups they do. That’s all there is.

Technically not a thought crime since he didn’t keep it in his head. Just a regular crime (if law applies in your district/county)
