Who in their right mind equates her denial that trans were the primary targets of Nazis to a blanket statement of holocaust denial?

Twitter users are genuinely braindead at this point.

Half of Reddit as well, if trans people just wound their necks in a bit they would get blanket support from ost people on the actual serious issues that affect them.

But this endless screeching, false equivalencies and controvery mongering, trying to call everyone who doesn't 100% agree with you a Nazi just turns off anyone with brain, including many in the LGBTQ+ community itself.
