So what if they were?
Then, obviously, you should hold them against their will, surround and threaten them and shoot em.
Own Clown logic.

Ok.
*back peddles*
Give me one example you remember.
If you're gonna say that's what I do, it should be easy, right?
Does it make you feel wholesome making **** up about people? This is your second false accusation.

I would have a avoided it. I don't know if the guy purpose went that way or arrived there by accident. Either way and regardless if he was at the original protest, no one should do that to random people. It's cowardice.
Fine. I did a quick search on "Archie Moses victim blaming", and got this gem where you blame a woman for wearing the wrong clothes (from 2010)
(Edit to get correct post)
Here's one blaming trans women for the violence they suffer from men (from 2019)
PRIDE Week.
I think the trans person going on dates without disclosing that fact is putting themself in significant danger. The hardest part of being the parent of a transgender person for me has been learning of the astronomical increase in the risk of violent assault and murder. To put it in some...

1.) In 2010, I was completely different person. I was active LDS and wrote many things I'd disagree with today. I have no problem growing from my mistakes and evolving to a better version of myself.Fine.

2.) I didn't victim blame at all. I shared an honest experience and my opinion on the matter. Why did you quote GameFace and what did I say to victim blame?

I accept that people grow. I also know that growth is hard.
When I clicked on the second link, it took me to your post, which included you saying, "Anyway, yes I do think they should let people know unfortunately, for the sake of their safety." Blaming the violence that a trans person receives on the trans person is textbook victim-blaming.
Nope. But even I have seen Facebook and Twitter posts from people who self-identify as antifa.

I'm not blaming trans people. I'm giving my opinion with their best interest in mind.
I think if you're dating online, letting people know you're straight, homosexual, bi, or trans is being transparent.
If you take what I said in that post as offensive, victim blaming or whatever, that's fine. I can live with that. That post was honest and genuine.
I didn't say that part of the post was victim-blaming. It's that part where you say it needs to happen for their physical safety.
You honestly see no difference between 'if you do this I'll feel deceived' and 'if you do this someone will batter you'?

That's my opinion because I wouldn't want to see anything happen to them.
I think it is being deceitful to photoshop pics (straight, gay, trans whatever) and not disclose your sexuality while assuming you're the other's sexual preference even though you never disclosed it.
This doesn't translate to they need to be battered. Unfortunately, that's happened before and manipulating it into victim blaming is garbage. It's the same advice I'd give my kids.
Stop with the verbal gymnastics.
So, you think trans people need to change so they don't get beaten up, and you don't understand that is victim-blaming.
OK. there's not much else to say on that matter.

Cool, it’s not rocket science. I’ll try not to confuse it.

I do not want to mischaracterize you. What are you saying, and how is it different from what I said? If I altered my statement to "So, you think trans people need to change their behavior so they don't get beaten up ...", is that more accurate?

"Behavior" is pretty vague. I feel that Archie is talking about a very specific thing.
Also, and I don't want to put words in his mouth, but I think he is saying that everyone (not just transgenders) should be upfront and transparent about their sexuality. Not just to avoid being hurt physically or emotionally later on but also because it's just the courteous and nice thing to do.

Violence by far right is among US’s most dangerous terrorist threats, study finds
Center for Strategic and International Studies analysis of domestic terrorist incidents found majority have come from far right
www.theguardian.com
The report says “the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994, and the total number of rightwing attacks and plots has grown significantly during the past six years”, with the far right launching two-thirds of attacks and plots in 2019, and 90% of those in 2020.
The report adds: “Far-right terrorism has significantly outpaced terrorism from other types of perpetrators.” The second most significant source of attacks and plots in the US has been “religious extremists”, almost all “Salafi jihadists inspired by the Islamic State and al-Qaida”.
The report shows the far left has been an increasingly negligible source of attacks since the mid 2000s.

I think identifying as trans appropriate and expected on a dating site platform.
I advise them to way disclose it for their safety. I've read stories of people flipping out about it and hurting or killing the individual. I do not "blame" them at all for this and the idea that you interpreted it that way is ridiculous.
I get it. You advise trans people to represent themselves in a manner they feel is inauthentic and reveal deeply personal information to complete strangers. You don't think this is victim-blaming.
