The solution is to stop transphobia, which kills people, instead of indulging it as a harmless difference of opinion.

It's even drowning out his own voice. Did so on another platform for sure (cycling tips slack channel), and not just in relation to trans people in sports as a topic.
To the point where most people that hold sympathetic views dismissed him. So they most likely miss that he has actually really good points to offer amongst that constant stream of accusations, i.e. that targeted abuse is happening and not everyone is just discussing. Which I might not have consider before, as that's not my lived experience.
But why would those people properly engage with someone that automatically accuses them of being Nazi or whatnot?
Instead it's much more fun to shit post and rile him up a bit so that he goes into fill on meltdown mode.
The problem with his Venn diagram of opinions is that if you're slightly out of his exact circle you're an enemy.

Look I know this looks like a load of centrist white dads riding in, but Calum on wheels you’re really not being great here.
A person is telling you, as a woman, their viewpoint. You as a man, I mean I think you’re a man
Edit: this is not meant as a glinner type dig, I read this back and it’s not the best expression
are shouting back and telling them they’re wrong about being a woman.
The problem, in this thread, is your voice is drowning out others and is scattergunning opinions and articles while shouting at anyone who disagrees and then calling them a nazi. Which, while a solid and proven internet argument technique, doesn’t really engage with the problem of listening and trying to get a solution to a bigger problem.
