This article isn't a moral panic. Did anyone even look at it? It's talking about four athletes and their experiences, some of them positive.
Agreed 100%. Sports are entertainment. This is a distraction. Get people upset about trans women in sports and they might get less upset about things like healthcare costs. Or at least not upset enough to stop voting for bigots.
I don't disagree with you, necessarily. It's an incredibly grey issue and one of the few issues that the left shouldn't be as absolutist about and have a conversation. And beyond that, it's so low on the list of priorities. Even for trans people themselves I can't imagine this is high on the list.
But your Protip makes you look like a tool. Why preemptively try to act like you're some kind of martyr?

"Sort by controversial" is just complaining about being hidden due to downvotes. It also doesn't make sense for multiple reasons. They've already seen your comment, you're upvoted, you're not necessarily going to get downvotes due to a nuanced conversation, Lemmy isn't usually busy enough to be buried in comments, etc.
You can say it's a controversial subject without victimizing yourself.
I see youre from arkansas and all your posts are about sportball. Lets be honest.....it was the "Low information cousin fucker" part that really triggered you.
Sorry you're offended. I hope you get better.
