That’s more of a centrist take. It makes perfect sense for trans allies to demonize transphobes, for example. Nobody is advocating against constructive conversation, but sometimes views are genuinely rooted in malice and thus cannot be reasoned with.
I’m not sure you want to take a middle ground between being transphobic and being a trans ally, as that’s just transphobia. The transphobes should, in fact, be shunned and demonized for being bigots.
Neither malice nor fear are good when directed at minority populations, and pretending one is better than the other when they breed each other is again a meaningless centrist take.
I’m flattered that you think I sound cool, though 😎
I understand the mechanisms perfectly well, you’re just arguing that lighter transphobia and homophobia should be acceptable and shouldn’t be demonized. Transphobia and homophobia should be demonized.

Homophobia ain’t cool either.

I’m a guilt by guilt kinda guy. Fear of minorities is bad.
