    I know we are in an trans echo chamber and all, but normies are going to snicker at this.

    I’m saying that fighting the deadnaming jibe will Streisand on you big time.

    It’s perfect troll food.

      No. Fuck you. This issue has nothing to fucking do with us and I will not be tied to it. The US does not own the lake. It has no right to unilaterally change the name. This isn’t deadnaming, it’s someone else giving you a shitty nickname and then insisting everyone else use it.

        Another one of Trump’s signature moves.
