turns out some people on Reddit are open minded after all. This specific sub Reddit does not show up and down votes I think so have half fixed the echo chamber effect

I don't know what comments you were reading but all I saw was 'transphobia', 'transphobia' , 'transphobia' , 'transphobia' . 🤔

Well yes - BUT - there are responses and they have been allowed to stay!!

Ok I waded in again, I pushed on past the claptrap, and there were some comments that were pointing out the errors to the hive mind. Maybe the mods on Reddit have realised there are more clicks in controversy than in an echo chamber.
Given the large amount of intractable bullshit that formed most of the comments though I don't think they're going to change any minds, but if ever there was a place that need Sunshine it's Reddit.

Yeah maybe I over egged it a bit BUT there is something there even if not much

The trans brigade very unhappy at the idea of free speech being protected. How many trans professors have lost their jobs for expressing their opinion? Zero.

I see a lot of deletions.

Yes "anti trans bigots" ad nauseum

I’ve managed to find some comments that haven’t been removed or downvoted into oblivion. Good grief! I am surprised. I am especially surprised ones like this have survived:

“Debating about areas where transwomen should be treated as women and where they shouldn't be, isn't the same as saying that their existence is up for debate.”

Someone disagreed with that and claimed it is putting trans people’s existence up for debate, The reply to this was, “It's not. This is the level of fanaticism that people are pushing back against. Do you really think we should not debate if trans women should play in the women's sports category?” Hear, hear!

One of the first comments I read on it said it all though. Apparently the employment tribunal system is, “easy to weaponise,” to protect the bigotry of those who have brought claims. Riiiiiiigggghhhht 🙄.
