Linking to hate speech, again

This is a lot closer to some atheist telling a a religious person that they are lying and don’t actually believe in a god, and in fact that nobody believes in any gods. Which I’m pretty sure would get modded for being hateful.

Also, the gender essentialists believe strongly in an “immutable gender identity”; they just think that they are the ones who get to assign it and the person in question doesn’t get an opinion on the matter.

1. Disbelievers in gender identity are not saying people are all lying about their feelings. We’re saying feelings are not the thing that determines whether a person is a man or a woman.

2. In this thread @Bill_Door implies that hardly any religious people really honestly believe in a god and @kanicbird opines that actually everybody really believes in a god but just don’t know it. Neither gets mod noted, and nobody does anything more strong than disagree. So I dispute your assertion that “nobody believes in any gods” would be mod noted on this board

3. Can’t say I care what “gender essentialists” think since I’m not one, and it’s not necessary to be one in order to think that gender identity is not a meaningful category
