Idk though I think by making the method of revealing a trans woman's birth gender (species?) be a holographic scythe through the head the author might be intending us to read a message between the lines.

I mean I don't think anyone particularly wants to go to a female prison or rape shelter, but I guess if you're a really hosed up dude who likes to project onto trans women, those sound like a picnic.

Ok that's on me I saw "women's sports" and "lesbian bars" and stopped reading. But in my defense, how much attention should I give Ishida?

SimonChris posted:I'm pretty sure that the idea is that her holographic scythe destroys the holographic disguise of the evil trans person, not that she literally murders her. You can tell that the scythe itself is glitching out in the last panel. Who knows with Sinfest, though. Also I know this one only exists because Tatsuya Ishida has the memory of a goldfish and just did a comic about trans people being illegal immigrants so his Markov-chain brain pivoted to this, but... even by Sinfest standards this feels out of place. Just a random comic thrown in about "also, gently caress immigrants! We SHOULD be afraid of them!!!", in case his alt-right base didn't trust him enough to regurgitate their talking points?

The idea is that obviously these Men just want to infiltrate spaces that are supposed to be safe havens for women so they can prey on them. It's the whole "Oho, I will simply identify as a female so I can go perv around in the girl's locker room." bullshit again, just taken to further extremes.

Vib Rib posted:Sure, but the visual imagery of stabbing her in the head is hard to deny. Like, it could've been a gun that just destroys the illusion but the imagery would still have been shooting a trans person in the head. By blatantly intentional design the comic is about murdering trans people if you ever see them near a child, or even suspect they might be - and hey, turns out it's easy to suspect when you spend every waking moment screaming to people that's what they're doing About a month ago there was a very public case of a trans teenage girl, Brianna Ghey, stabbed to death in the UK. Considering how much of a TERF hive it is, I would be extremely surprised if it wasn't an allusion in support of her murderers

Idgi, why is that not functional? Is it because it's a biker helping out someone who had a flat tire? Is it because the car has a spare and a jack, rather than just a patch kit? Yes I know it's supposed to be horribly anti-trans, but I choose to be horribly obtuse and make them explain why what they chose to show is supposedly bad. Also, just pretend that I quoted the Sinfest comics with a "gently caress you." as my comment to each one, with 20-30 gently caress Yous under the one making fun of recognizing Indiginous lands.

Same people who go "I had a bad encounter with a minority once, that's why I'm racist". Just like I'm sure if they'd been mugged by a white guy they would've become anti-white.

So Lester’s statistic of “gender surgeries tripling” for minors is that gender dysphoria diagnoses have tripled since 2017. Because clearly everyone one of those kids is going to opt for surgery  What a dishonest gently caress.Oh and that 42,000 diagnoses, which amounts to uh…0.016% of minors in the US. Weird how Lester went for the more sensationalist number.

Sorta like how any surgery that could, in some cases, be applied to trans people is now "trans surgery". I did see some post trying to lump all breast reductions as trans.

A person got a flat tire, another person stopped to help them, the person who got the flat tire is grateful to receive assistance and the person changing the tire is completely in control of the situation. And this is bad because.....?
