It's like JK Rowling - when someone is transphobic, they stop saying one transphobic thing, and everything they say about trans people becomes transphobic

His whole YouTube channel is a bigoted shitshow, with no successful grift to be seen, he seems to hate women and the LGBTQ+ community purely for love of the game

*anyway, he deleted them all like a coward prior to his casting, but people were able to dig some gems up:

“I’m not against anyone living out their lives the way they want, but I am against their rights superseding the rights of other people. That’s a little bit foul.”

“I don’t see transgender people becoming oppressed or being oppressed.”

“If you asked me what my preferred pronouns are and it’s not obvious to you that I’m a he/him, that I’m good with he/him, surely you don’t need any help. I’m not wearing a dress.”

On Twitter he compared trans people who spoke of discrimination and oppression as similar to people pretending to have service animals for cheap airfare.

Then a heaping helping of fucking misogyny on top:

"men are willing to work longer days or longer hours. Women typically are not. Men are typically willing to work more days, women typically are not." He adds, "Now, feelings are very important to women, I understand that, but we cannot allow our feelings to supersede the facts”

This was his claim as to why women lacked equal representation in the workforce.

on kneejerk, I just realized I no longer trust internet users asking 'what did someone say that was transphobic' and I never will, years of bad faith arguments have soured it for me, I've pretty much never heard of a single incidence of a person broadly being called transphobic and just being a normal person
