I have a shirt with this on it now and am happily reminded of angry saltlick comment thread every time I wear it outside. <3

But… no. You’re not actually for “pluralism of opinions,” because you don’t fundamentally see whether or not Trixie is trans as an opinion, but rather as an issue of fact that you think you can “prove.” You’re not for just allowing other people to have their own view and their own subjective personal truths about Trixie, because if you were, you wouldn’t be trying to argue with them against Trixie being trans. Similarly, your only interest in “free speech” in the trans Trixie context is to the extent that you want to be free to badger everyone else about how you think your views are right and trans Trixie is “wrong” somehow. You’re not interested in the “free speech” of those who disagree with you, you’re only interested in the “freedom” to try to suppress their perspective and their expression of it by decrying it relentlessly in an attempt to infuse negativity and doubt into other people’s enjoyment of an otherwise nice little spark of fan-created trans representation.
 
Your “pluralism” isn’t about multiple coexistent perspectives, it’s about demanding acceptance of your perspective into the spaces of other perspectives in the expectation of dominating them. Your “free speech” isn’t about everyone getting to express themselves, it’s about YOU getting to express why you’re right and other views are wrong and shouldn’t be expressed. This is 100% bad faith abuse of the concepts of pluralism and free speech, and you have nothing but bad takes here.

@Atlas_66  
Freedom of speech is freedom from government persecution to your speech, and it has limitations. It’s not freedom to say anything you want anywhere you want without retribution for your actions. Depribooru is not the government, and they have their own set of rules that need to be followed when you use this as a platform for your speech. For example, Depribooru policy is that hateful opinions (such as anti-trans rhetoric) are not allowed in the comments, and that comments should be about the image, not the meta meaning behind the image. If you want to continue talking about this topic, you should do it on the forum, because this is not the place for it. Hiding behind “freedom of speech” is meaningless here, because it does not apply to privately owned websites.

@wdeleon  
Well, I am for pluralism of opinions all the same and for freedom of speech, you have your own opinion, and I have my own opinion)) I don’t see any problems.

@Atlas_66  
What exactly is the point supposed to be in posting a screenshot from a non-official wiki that anyone can edit?  
Seriously. Just knock it off with your opinion-superiority trolling. You don’t think Trixie is trans, we get it. You don’t need to justify your view of Trixie by pulling out meaningless fan-made “evidence,” nor is it impressing anyone or changing anyone’s mind when you do so.  
You do you, friend.  
Just stop thinking you can force everyone else to, also.

@wdeleon  
Understandable.

@Atlas_66  
Trixie is trans to me. She doesn’t have to be to you, fine, but you need to respect that you are not anyone else but you. All the “Nope” in the world won’t change MY Trixie.

@Litrojia  

 
If you get mad because somepony says a cartoon horse is trans, or demand that bronies be “subtle” about their headcanon when it involves transgender themes while nopony makes those sorts of demands on any other kind of headcanon, maybe it says more about you than about the artists doing LGBT art.
 
…also Trixie is trans

Trixie is trans.

Press F to pay respects

@Raritybro  
There’s a song called Magic Bitch that is about trixie too lol

@SpectroKeronian  
A Blue Öyster Cult song from their album Tyranny and Mutation, thought it would be appropriate.

@GrapefruitFace  
Baby ice dog? What’s that?

@semerl

@Lurks-no-More

@icey wicey 1517  
Okay, that makes sense. Thanks!

And, just a reminder, if you do not like images with a Transgender or Pride theme, please filter the appropriate tags. And if you want to discuss the history of why some characters are associated with those themes, please use the forums.
