    i think it’s just that the poster is a trans women and wanted to raise awareness through a meme about a struggle related to her identity

    though i think it’s also worth noting that trans women are being disproportionately targeted due to the unique intersections of oppression faced. (see that one english/british court ruling last year or so that declared trans women as not women, without saying anything about trans men; v-coding; the disproportionate attacks on transgender women of color; the disproportionate attacks on transgender sex workers, most of whom are women, vs cis sex workers)

    though i don’t see any reason why she couldn’t have just said trans people. i doubt she thought about it that deeply really

    it’s a meme, why are you trying so hard to deflect the attention away from trans women?

    why dismiss the unique struggles of trans women in favor of unspecified victims of prejudice, without even considering the root of the problem of systemic transphobia, before proposing a solution that has nothing to do with transphobia?

    why act like this image has influence on who “the nazis know […] to target”? why even mention that?

    why mention being called a nazi when nobody ITT has called you a nazi?

    trans women are being specifically mentioned because it is harder for trans women to find a job, or even get support from family (and therefore cover basic necessities) due to prejudice and systemic discrimination against trans women

    this comment kinda feels like responding “all lives matter” to someone saying black lives matter

    downvoted. reason: i don’t want to confront my conditional immunity to state violence or how other people have it worse than me due to systems i participate in, rely on, and support. no, i will not elaborate further or provide a logically sound argument based in reality.
