It’s all well and good and valid to say “Don’t make fun of this privileged group because this non privileged group might think you’re talking about them” but a part of me is also like what if we don’t bully people for things out of their control?
Like I’ve seen people say things like “Don’t call men ugly because trans men/trans women/mlm might be affected by it!” and like as a trans mlm maybe just like… don’t… insult the way men look? Because they’re people?
Like cishet men need to be made aware of their privilege and held accountable for their actions for sure. But also like… maybe don’t give random strangers body issues?
Today I also saw a post that seemed to be saying “Don’t make fun of fat men because that will affect fat people that aren’t men” but like… fat cis men also deserve to be okay with being fat too. Like I’m aware that they have privilege that non cis men don’t. I know. But like… cis fat men see these things, and have body issues, and get affected by it. They do.
