"I said what I said" Doesn't mean anybody actually follows.

Have to agree, I'm not following. Can you provide an example?

Of?

Sorry, that was directed at OP. I was agreeing with you.

"A person is not [insert]-phobic just because they bring up a fact that you don't like." This is probably a much clearer way of expressing what you mean. If that is what you mean. I'm not entirely sure.

Maybe you should talk this out with the person who said you're homo- or trans-phobic.

Yeah, I'm starting to think that OP was called out for something, are definitely homo/trans/xenophobic and are now coming here for validation.

Its not the fact itself that's whatever-phobic, is the emphasis of it. Or the spotlight of the person who's speaking, or how they feel or what they think we should do about it. Stuff like that. Also, socially some things are just rude to say, like "hey you're really fat". That's a fact.

Truth isn't dependant on feelings, but the truth can still be weaponized.

I'm afraid of different things. I don't feel afraid of trans people. Maybe indifferent unless it gets forced down my throat. They've been around for a long time. Since they lurked on devices in the late 90s- early 2000s though I guess they've become louder. I wouldn't want children to be around that, just I wouldn't like them around an R movie. I don't watch those and it says a lot.
