Nah.

You don't get to just blanket admonish us like that.

You have no idea what we do or don't do to support people who are trans. You have no idea if we are sitting on our hands. You have no idea if we are "all talk".

Trans struggle isn't the only struggle going on right now.

Trans issues aren't the number one priority for everyone.

You aren't angry, disappointed, or on the attack? You don't want us to drop everything to comment, volunteer or donate?

Then why did you post this diatribe?

Someone said "we want to help, how can we help?" I posted a quite thorough explanation of how to help but heard nothing back. I'm allowed to post my reaction to that. But now I'm the arsehole? I expected at least some discourse honestly.
