This is generally true for most niche social issues, but that also means it’s relatively easy to break if you know what you’re doing. Personally I’ve taken the “Why do YOU care” approach wherein I basically use a janked up Socratic method to tear apart since with no underlying thought it’s pretty easy to shove them into the IDC category again. Hell sometimes they become aggressively anti-anti-trans because they then get annoyed by it assuming my reasoning sinks in.

Biggest problem I’ve encountered is actually bigots who’s bigoted opinions derived from religion or politics. Haven’t found a great way around those fucks, yknow besides pointing out the only reason I’m not killing them is because of laws.

Results for both vary quite a bit with both, turns out acting like and looking like a half feral Redneck with obvious temper issues gives one a lot of maneuvering area with folks. Probably helps that I’m able to keep my cool and can get louder without yelling, so I can overwhelm folks while not coming across as losing my cool.
