Um, who’s going to tell them that the US Supreme Court did legalize same-sex marriage in America and not a single transwoman was involved in that decision? 😂

Most of the people at Stonewall would probably have liked to throw a brick at that person because queer was (and is still) a homophobic slur.

The court didn't, but rather those who fought the courts through legal means. For people who cry about erasure they sure don't care about the gay people who worked through legislation to have our rights recognized

"Trans women throwing bricks"

Name those trans women for me then. And no, those two drag queens they constantly mention were not trans, were not at the scene when the riots started, and even if they were there, they were certainly not the only people there at the riots.

It was homosexuals and bisexuals like ourselves who fought to attain and secure our rights.

"Not GAY as in wanting to live a regular life with the same rights as others and gaining rights through a legal process that's been developed over nearly a millennia, but QUEER as in I'm a fucking idiot with no understanding of history or cause and effect."

Also marriage is a terrible example for this because marriage was a specific example of using long term political pressure and using the legal system for our end goals. We got Massachusetts to legalize it through the courts because the politicians were too cowardly to do anything about it then they tried to use a ballot referendum to overturn the ruling but the actual voters in the state slapped it down. Other states began to follow then the supreme court followed then again right wing politicians made performative gestures to overturn the ruling but none of them really cared.

It was all done by peacefully working the system over many years.

Not trans as in I fought for some basic human rights, crybaby as in I obtained privileges on LGB's coattails

More of the young woke virtue signaling about history they don't know about.
