I saw this as a post in the Conservative Atheist group which I see but I am not a member of and they were either confused by the original post or they thought it was hilarious. I thought that the people posting and commenting on this meme were as funny as all get out and dumb as a sack of hammers, they just don't get higher level humour. ๐Ÿ˜€

Hammers are pretty smart, they can hit your fingers if you are not looking correctly. I have the problem of not using a hammer to hit nails, so every time I try to hit a nail I hit what I am looking at, my fingers.

You have some hell of a nerve of hijacking someone elseโ€™s post from their chosen group and giving some bullshit opinion on it

Zero Fucks Given, thanks for playing, maybe you'll be around for Double Jeopardy where you can score really big points. ๐Ÿ˜€

@SnowyOwl A stupid reply that fails to address what I stated because you have no valid reply

Members join specific groups for certain reasons and you have the audacity to repost something from this member .Obviously this individual had no intention of interacting with the general membership other than the ones in her specific chosen group.Are you so ignorant that you did not realize everyone also saw the original post like you did .Whatโ€™s the point other than the fact that you appointed yourself the unofficial critic of Agnostic.com .This should be reported to adm. Tell me genius what is the purpose of specific groups if people like you cherry pick posts from other groups and give your inane unwarrented opinions on them.I privately messaged this individual who substantiated what I stated here.

As the original poster I thank you for posting this .I did not feel the need as you so eloquently stated of INTERACTING with this nitwit.LOL

Well said

I found it funny but you found it offensive, this could be why I am happier than you are. Have a nice day and don't forget to stew in your own juices and twist in the wind. You tight asses really crack me up, now toodle off your echo chamber. ๐Ÿ˜€

@SnowyOwl Hey moron the point of the post of granny is you took a post from a specific intended group not the CONTENT of the post.

As someone who has been feeling quite invisible lately, I can totally relate.

The intent of the meme is to make fun of people who support trans or are trans people, either in a light hearted way or with malice. No way to know for sure, but the op's name clearly says it all. Everyone is different, people from either side could laugh or be offended.

I thought we had a gentleman's agreement or am I mistaken?

@SnowyOwl if you don't want me to interact with your posts perhaps you should block me. I don't make agreements with overly sensitive people.

@Tejas Comment elsewhere, perhaps you could start your own group with just You, Yourself and I?

@SnowyOwl like I said before I'll respond to what I want. Maybe take your own advice

Some people come to atheism through logic and reason. But not everyone. Some are hateful. Some are stupid.

It's telling that the person disappearing is a young black man.

Conservative humor isn't funny because the jokes are always punching down.

I have been long since banned fro the conservative group so I cannot see their comments but I find this quite funny. An amusing take on the trans phobia around currently.

I see this in many areas with the Movement Conservatives aka trumpers or what ever they refer to themselves. Just anti religion but not humanist or even secular if the religious serve their purpose.
NO clue that this actually makes them look extremely ignorant and trans phobic all at the same time.๐Ÿ˜‚

Most of them also either have no clue or simply don't care, regarding how selfish they look.

I stay out of viewing the posts from the Conservative Atheists group, as I have no interest in hearing their bullshit, however, I am unable to avoid running into them often on the Politics forum and sometimes other non-political groups (at least in theory), like the two dating groups, and the Singles/Mingle group. To me, they are people who enjoy freedom from religion without any Humanist values or principles, while I am very much a Secular Humanist and Socialist, so there is no common ground beyond non-belief in religion.

Sums it up nicely๐Ÿค—.

@silverotter11 Thanks.

Apparently I am totally banned from the Consevative Atheists group. They do not like my remarks and appear to get off by driving cars and trucks into large groups of people. Then we have Jesus crossing our Southern border.

Just to clarify my perspective, I saw this as a clever play on words from a Trans perspective.
To be transparent is to be upfront and honest but for people who cannot handle this honesty and truth they want to respond by making transparency into invisibility because the fault and the weakness is with them but the strength and the courage to stand up and demand to be acknowledge is with the Trans community. That's why I found it hilarious that the conservative group got it completely ass backwards, it's not a slam against Trans people in my opinion but an statement against the very phobia that makes it necessary for Trans people to demand their equality.

Golly, that's a lot of mental gymnastics in the service of rationalizing something stupid.

But by all means, keep doubling down on it. I'll go make popcorn.

@Toonman Just because you don't have the ability to 'get it' doesn't mean that it doesn't make sense.

@SnowyOwl I get it. I just don't think it's funny. And I think you're going to a lot of trouble, not to explain, but to explain away.

They probably think you mis-spelled humor ๐Ÿ˜‰

I can spell it either way, depends if they are English speaking or if they only speak Americanese. lol

@SnowyOwl I am odd for an American as I just see it as alternate spellings, but I also know the metric system as well as imperial.

They should hear some trans-humor by trans people.
There are ways to be funny but conservative humor typically has undertones of cruelty.
The only potential thing that could be offensive is making fun of the two terms associated with trans, identifying and pronouns, but if those aren't triggers for you then this is an objectively cute meme.
The only down side is the potential interpretations transphobes would spin on it. Notice this isn't just a trans meme, they went the extra mile to make sure the subject is a minority giving the over negative feel I get from it.
Over all I'll rate it as forgettable.

Often it feels as if a lot of things about conservatives including politics and humor have cruelty, blatant or subtle.
