the other replies to this comment reaaaally prove your point.

Are people really stupid enough to think that every single trans person is a loud screeching SJW?

Not to mention trans people are constantly under attack in most places and NEED to speak up.

Even if they were so what? You have to be cynical about these things and figure out how much danger every given person represents. I am in far less danger from someone who yells loudly on Instagram compared to some proud boy marching on the street. One makes the internet kinda boring the other sets off bombs.
