I'm just asking questions...

A person can choose to learn by repeating lies on social media so they can be "dog-piled" and have their statements picked apart, or they can google "what trans healthcare can minors access in Canada?" If they choose the former, they probably have thick skin by now.

I getcha, I'm just saying that engaging with people who ask a question by implying they're stupid or malicious isn't a great way to reach them, or others that read what you've written.

Maybe you disagree, but just think about it some.

Actually, I directly suggested they were misinformed and not malicious, rather than implying anything. Since then, they confirmed their intent by moving the goalposts away from their clearly disprovable point, rather than acknowledging that they might have been misinformed by an irresponsible source.

I've thought about this issue plenty, thank you for implying that I'm acting thoughtlessly.
