Yeah, of course.

He's not actually upset about "immersion". He is upset because to him, this is a reminder that his side is "losing the culture war" as he feels. That the natural hierarchy, that right-wing ideology is based upon, is being disrupted because those at the bottom of the totem pole are being acknowledged as members of society on the same level as him. This kind of thing is unnatural and unacceptable to chuds.

Fun fact: the bottom of the totem pole is the most prestigious place

Huh, TIL

I feel like if I said "top of the totem pole" when referring to people at the bottom of the hierarchy, people wouldn't get it though.

It's like Jesus said: "Fuck the marginalized of society."

Also they are the fucking dorks that made this whole "culture war" in the first place. Try explaining to one of these people that they've walked by transfolk irl and not even realized it, like at all. It doesn't compute to them. They seem to think that trans only existed in the last 2 or 3 years. I had that convo with an ex-coworker because he thought there was a whole ass army of men dressed as women waiting to bum rush every public restroom to scoop up little girls.

They think every trans person is a caricature like in their memes

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
