I don't expect to change the opinions of trans-phobic bigots, but I will point out any logical fallacies in the trite, disingenuous memes they post. Unless of course, they block me from being able to comment on their posts

In real life, when people come up to you and say things you figure are wrong, do you say:
"You're an asshole, but you're also wrong. Since I'm smarter than you, let me explain why you're wrong."
If you said that to anyone. ANYONE. In "real life". What would you expect to have happen?
If someone said that to YOU. What would you do? What if it was a stranger? What if it was an acquaintance? What if it was a friend?

I'm noticing that people can use the settings to curate a false little world where nobody ever disagrees with them

The Cellar was DESIGNED to be the discussion you wanted. That was my original intent; free range discussion. For years it worked that way. It has now stopped being that, because as social media bloomed, people found they could go elsewhere and curate their false little world where nobody ever disagrees with them.
All political people have now left the Cellar because they got pushback and found it uncomfortable. It happened from the right. It happened from the left.
This is where we are today. And now, as what I find to be a final insult, you have used the Cellar, not to HAVE that discussion, but
to yell at other people for not having that discussion ELSEWHERE.
