TERFs being assholes as usual. Downplaying the very legitimate concerns of the modern rise of fascism (and how Transphobia is tied into that) purely because it *just might* mean acknowledging the reality that Trans people face legitimate marginalization in modern society.
> The Weimar Republic was a time of debauchery and rampant sexual assault/rape. It was good for men, not so good for women. These fools tell on themselves constantly.
I admittedly haven’t looked super deeply into the Weimar Republic’s culture, so I don’t entirely know whether the rise in sexual assault claims are true, but I do know that the Weimar Republic had expanded rights for women compared to the previous German Empire, increased visibility for and acceptance of homosexuality, and, of course, a deeper understanding of gender identity and acknowledgement of transgender people. I feel like glossing over these purely to focus on the negative is Accentuating the Negative at best and agenda-driven erasure of LGBT history at worst. Also, I very much doubt the intentions of anyone who would use the word “debauchery” unironically
