I’m a tall chubby cishet dude with a big beard in VA.
People say the quiet part out loud to me within 3-5 minutes basically anytime I go to a bar or something, and all the normies treat me like I’m the asshole when I disagree with the guy saying trans people are too in his face and need to dress appropriately because they’re such a nice guy otherwise.
Well clearly they’re not, are they, if they think entire sections of the population shouldn’t be allowed to live their life (or whatever the subject is?)
My partner passes as a straight cis white dude and works in finance and you are right, within the first interaction of meeting a bigot they will open their mouths and out themselves. And the worst part is, they nearly always phrase it as an in-joke, or an in-thing, like they are figuratively ‘wink wink nudge nudging’ him and it drives him fucking crazy that they just assume he’s one of them and will nod or laugh along. Instead, he pulls a reverse uno and shames them, very politely, for various super neutral reasons: like not being professional and staying on topic, or for being a hr violation, etc. He’s found the less progressive, more business-neutral language really fucks them up, they get super embarrassed
