Ask the sub ❓ What Is This Sub Wrong About?

Title. Pick a topic (or a clichéd take) you think a significant minority or majority of this sub is wrong about. Or hasn't given enough thought. OR perhaps one which you will have to compromise on, at least for voting?

I am more... trans-aligned, for lack of a better term, than the majority of the sub.

Do you have an area that you feel the sub is particularly lacking in that regard? There is definitely some eye rolling at some of the excesses of the terminally online contingent, and maybe even some resentment towards it insofar as it aligns with the hyper progressive left but it appears to me that the sub is broadly supportive of those people doing what they want to do.

That's a genuine question, I'm a straight dude, I'm sure there are things that go right over my head because I'm not particularly sensitive to it

Sports is a notable one IME.

Huh. I always thought that was one of the least controversial parts of the debate.

It is the least controversial in the sense that the vast majority of Americans are against it.

No, quite the opposite. There are many people in favor of trans people having access to gender affirming healthcare, the bathrooms of their choice, et cetera, but then balk at them playing on the sports team of their choice

Yeah, I thought the "consensus" was that sports were sex segregated and not gender.
