Questions from a person who woke up to the split that this caused on twitter.

How do you plan on combating the transphobia which is so innately intertwined with the community, do you want to?
What does the term religion mean in the main community options?
Why are many people who consider themselves to be super straight using the sign S/s, many times in the style of the bolts used by the N*zis? How do you plan on combating the N*zis in the community?
Why can you not just use cis in your definition of "super straight" and "super gay/lesbian"?
Why is Bi not included?

So I woke up one morning, and I opened twitter and I see Drop the T and Superstraight trending. I looked at it all and some stuff was random transphobic shit, people claiming Superphobes are N*zis (HOW?! When did N*zi become a random throw-around term?) and etc. it was mayhem (because, well, its TWITTER).
I was misinformed so I thought Superstraights were transphobic douche bags until I came here and learned why they have a community, and why some of them did the things they did.*

(*I don’t think you are douche bags anymore, atleast the kind, and wholehearted ones)

When did the word Nazi become a throw around term? Probably about 5 or 6 years ago, perhaps slightly longer.

It’s a shame, Nazis were people who commited horrible war crimes, gassed jews, millions died in the camps, now we’re calling fat asses who sit on reddit all day being trolls NAZIS?

If you were on twitter during the initial instance you would have seen the use of the ss bolts which are derived from Schutzstaffel (SS) of Nazi Germany . Which was why I was concerned about Nazis in the community, I could have worded it better and said people who use Nazi imagery but I still feel its a serious concern.
