Trans person: “Cis people suck, they keep passing laws and push rhetoric that kills people like me. They are toxic and hateful.”
Some random cis person: “tHaTs HaTeFuL yOu HyPoCrItE”
In my experience, cis people are the only ones erasing us and trying to pass laws and rhetoric that kills us. Sorry it’s not easy to “nuance” a voice of frustration around that. Cis people honestly kinda suck. Looking forward to another tone police reply.
So if Ukrainians said that Russians suck, are you gonna jump in to defend Russians?
What if Palestinians said that Israeli people suck, are you going to chide them?
If so, then you just want those suffering to suffer quietly, or to suffer “the right way”. God forbid they express disdain for the groups oppressing them.
People should be held accountable for their choices and actions. Nobody chose to be born in any country, as a particular race, gender, or any other “group” outside of their control.
Perpetuating the acceptance of prejudice, however, is a choice.
The fact that the University of Pennsylvania swimmer soared from a mid-500s ranking (554th in the 200 freestyle; all divisions) in men’s competition to one of the top-ranked swimmers in women’s competition tells the story
In the 100 freestyle, Thomas’ best time prior to her transition was 47.15. At the NCAA Championships, she posted a prelims time in the event of 47.37. That time reflects minimal mitigation of her male-puberty advantage.
During the last season Thomas competed as a member of the Penn men’s team, which was 2018-19, she ranked 554th in the 200 freestyle, 65th in the 500 freestyle and 32nd in the 1650 freestyle. As her career at Penn wrapped, she moved to fifth, first and eighth in those respective events on the women’s deck.
Removing the records set while competing in women’s events seems justified in this case.

What does this have to do with the post you’re replying to?
The last sentence of my comment is my contradicting an assertion they directly made, with the information that backs up that contradiction above it.
