Where's the transphobic part?
What's transphobic about the attack helicopter 1 joke?
Nice dodge. You're missing the point of the community and you deserve your ban. Quit wasting your effort on this. Go outside and take a nice walk, drink some water, and hug someone you love.
I don't know what that is.
Here you go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Sexually_Identify_as_an_Attack_Helicopter :)
It’s mine and the mods’ belief that the post is satire of the Helicopter meme (making fun of transphobic conservatives along with the community’s significantly trans makeup as a whole)
In contrast OP believes that the post is 100% genuine, and is nothing more than another iteration of the Helicopter meme a priori
I'm definitely in the satire camp here, thanks for fully explaining.
No problem! It’s definitely confusing and attitudes on all sides don’t help the situation. I also was once a very confused outsider so glad my comment could help one other confused person 😅😅
I didn't even take it as satire on that, I thought it was just a weeb version of plane waifus and while I don't understand it I also am not threatened by accepting it may be a reality for some people. If someone wants to identify as an anthropomorphic attack helicopter because they want a helicopter waifu.... I don't understand but I don't have to to chuckle a bit and move on with my life. I don't know if that is a healthy view (mine) but it doesn't make me think of them as less human anymore that someone who likes pineapple on pizza. Sorry for the ramble, let me know if I'm off or missing something.
