trans men are almost always treated as invisible in these conversations

Seconded. There's almost zero solidarity most of the time in the trans community when it comes to trans-men, who often get treated as though they should just vie for themselves. It's almost like some sort of reflexive trauma of not wanting to associate with anything remotely masculine post-op.

I've seen trans-men literally get berated and put down for being enthusiastic about anything remotely masculine, be it sports or clothing, 24/7 by other trans people. They fucking hate them.

Anyone who grew up watching Spongebob should be able to do this. Just picture the rotating high-def live action Krabby Patty they use anytime for dramatic effect. Now replace it with an apple. Shing! Sparkle sparkle...

Came to say this. If it had literally remained unchanged they'd still be doing pretty good.

I feel like people are downplaying how dangerous even the possibility of #2 is. A lot of nations are already targeting the LGBTQ community on a regular basis and this would massively assist to streamline persecution of "certain" citizens as well as the rapid spread of religious dogma. Both the U.S. and Australia are current testing grounds for these outcomes.

Bingo. They're just projecting their failures as inadequate parents because they didn't realize how hard child rearing would be after knocking up their high school sweetheart and buying a white picket fence. It's always the same case.

While Collective Shout solely targeted games it said violated policies held by payment platforms, Itch.io's move to temporarily remove all NSFW content resulted in games with LGBTQ+ themes being removed.

One petition signer who is a member of the LGBTQ+ community said they were concerned that banning sexual-based games would be the start of cracking down on LGBTQ+ content.

There it is.

I needed the laugh, thanks
