Transphobia and such aside (which are shitty and unnecessary in their own right), how on earth can you realistically boycott Wayland when nearly every last Xorg dev has moved to Wayland permanently?
X11 is simply end of life, and there are no display server technologies or protocols that exist to challenge Wayland because no one cares enough to bother with the immesnse work it entails? At best you’ll be stuck on a legacy distro for a few years until your display drivers become too out of date for whatever apps you use.
I don’t really understand why people hate so much on transsexuality these days. Calling them a ‘scourge’ and 'mentally ill". What BS. Trans people are not hurting anyone. They just want to be their true self.
One of the arguments often used (also here) is that they are trying to force other people to be trans (in this case the poster says “they think everyone should get puberty blockers”). Which is complete BS, I have never met a trans person that wanted everyone else to be trans too.
It seems to be a big pet peeve of the extreme-right these days. I just don’t understand why.
If they had to get mad at reality, there’d be a lot less to be mad about. Being mad about made-up BS is a way for them to have their cake and eat it too. It’s boogeymen all the way down.
They thrive of hating the weaker groups in society. If you want some morbid fun, try asking one of those what they should do with trans people if the had the power…
The main reason is that they try to control what people think and how they feel. They don’t understand that just because they want to be seen and treated a certain way doesn’t mean everyone else needs to accommodate them.
If you believe men can’t be women (and vice-versa), that’s fine. If you believe they can, that’s fine too.
If you believe your view is an abject fact and there should be no discussion, then that’s not fine. Unfortunately, a lot of people fall into the last category where they hear something that challenges their beliefs and immediately want to censor it. All that does is create enemies by telling people they can’t discuss their views.
Those in power hate losing control. That’s why bodily autonomy, sexual freedom, critical thinking, accurate history, and religious diversity are all their go-to boogymen.
Trans folk are just one of the more recent groups to be targeted.
I’ve known four out trans people. One was a piece of shit. The other three turned out to be amazing and empathetic people who all made my life better just by knowing them.
It turns out, when you deal with people being entitled jerks to you all day, that tends to make you a better person. Forged in fire and all that.

They want everyone to be cis, so obviously everyone else wants people to be in their groups too!

It’s an effective tactic, on both sides.
Nobody is trying to control what people think or how they feel. You’re really just being an ignorant fool in every comment you post, aren’t you?
