using ethnocentric behavioral models to misgender

Damn but that's a mouthful of a title, ain't it?

Yes, I still have something to say on all that crap going, but that's not an area that I can just bang out a response to — it is something that takes time.  It'll be out today, but I need to seriously think on it, and it'll be a long post.

However, ancillary to that, last night I was reading up on stuff for the big long post, and I stumbled on one side's defenders making an outright lie in defense of another.

So I pointed out it was an outright lie.

Then they got defensive (expected), and started literally making stuff up about me.

And ya'll know I just eat that sort of thing up — it gives me all the fuel I need to dive in and start ripping someone into pieces.

It was not a good thing, mind you.  But I don't always do good things.  I just do the best thing I'm able to do.
