MODERATORS
Step 1: someone says trans people are bad and wrong
Step 1.5: live in a world providing plenty of evidence to the contrary. (No action required)
Step 2: attempt diplomacy by saying that statement is probably false and its use will be reacted to with force. (Often a previously stated rule and therefore no action required)
Step 3: use force.
The fact is, saying that anyone has "skipped diplomacy" is also disingenuous. The discussions bigots are trying to have aren't novel, they've been had to the extent that they are solved. No one "decided" they are bigots and have to get kicked out, it's a conclusion.
"Oh, but I'm just expressing my opinion. What's wrong with that? Am I not allowed to have opinions anymore? Surely you are the actually intolerant one, because I only implied that I don't think trans people should exist by saying they are bad and wrong"
It's frustrating because subtext does exist and matter. They only acknowledge the subtext in their bigoted assertions when it's convenient for them.
