Genuine question, politely posed from a curious friend BUT WAS WONDERING ARE YOU GONNA HAVE... LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN, “UGH C-- PEOPLE"? G BEING Cs BAD? SURGERYe o Divisive, labeling hostility to an open, politely posed question. Fosters insularity CO Correctly calls out the hostility with a question that can't possibly be answered with a 'yes'-the question invites the other character back onto a level, equal plane - UGH CIS PEOPLE IM NOT EVEN SURE WHAT BEING CIS MEANS, BUT YOU SHOULDN'T PAINT US ALL WITH THE SAME BRUSH OULDN'T THAT BE, LIKE, REVERSE TRANSPHOBIA2 Note: that this question is never answered Bravo- one of the most cogent things ever seen from this cartoonist. Considering that cis people make up a vast majority of people, this 'group' must necessarily consist of a wide range of decent people and jerks. The character is correct to call out his friends extremely divisive, mean-spirited narrow-minded categorization of cis people. THAT HOW YOU GET PEOPLe's SUPPORT... AND COMPARING YOUR CS GUILT TO SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AGAINST TRANS PEOPLE LACKE A LOT OF IT. Not wanting support is NOT a license to treat your friends with hostility for the crime of wanting to know more about you. YOU SEE, I DON'T EXACTLY WAN PEOPLE'S UPPORT Shaming and guilt-tripping your friend for the crime' of politely asking a very reasonable, pertinent question about a topic close to the trans community is exactly how you perpetuate the ignorance the cartoonist pretends to be against. ALL I WANT IS PEOPLE TO HAVE BASIC HUMAN DECENCY GOT IT

So she wants to be respected, but she doesn't want people's support? She wants respect, but she doesn't want respect. And she made both points in the same comic.
Should this phenomenon be called Quantum Angst, Schrodinger's Edge, or Pubescent Prejudice?
