Transphobic means an irrational fear of trans people. The problem is, the left redefines words, just like they did with Gender (always has meant 'one of the two sexes') and other words.
Even if you use your definition, I don't personally dislike someone just because they are a tranny. You still take that person as an individual and then decide if you like them. For example, you could have a friendly acquaintance that is a tranny and you don't even know it, because they don't blabber it out to everyone and they are good at disguising their natural appearance.
A phobia is not an irrational fear, the word is merely a victim of the leftist attack on language.
Phobia more accurately relates to repulsion, hence apolitical words like hydrophobic (repels water) and oliophobic (repels oil), which are used in chemistry, just like trans- and cis-.
Being transphobic, means that you repulse or are repulsed by trans.
Looking up modern definitions of hydrophobic now gives something like "lacks affinity for water". Never underestimate the breadth of the leftist attack, they're bombing supply depots on the fringe flanks, we'd never given a second thought, only to find out that they will become critical to a future battle.
I agree with you that the left wages a successful war on language. They change the definition of words to their liking, and they are able to get the changes in use in society, and then in dictionaries. They are extremely effective at this, and conservatives hardly even acknowledge this war on words. They definitely don't defend or fight back in this war.
they call people who don't like transgenderism or trannys themselves transphobes, if that's the case then I am a transphobe.
Just because they call you that doesn’t mean you have an irrational fear. They’ve really done a number on the dictionary.

Try being anti-trans instead. Phobias are for pussies.

Reject leftism and postmodernism, absolutely.

That's one of the main points of "1984". Thoughts are expressed in words. Control the words, control the thoughts.
If the word for a concept is eliminated, it becomes much harder to express the concept in any way.
I haven't read it, but it sounds like you have.
Can you answer this, what is the youngest average age a child could read this book and comprehend it? Just an estimate. 10, 12, 16???
Thanks
Exactly, it's like calling me an anorexaphobe for thinking anorexia is a mental illness. I'm not afraid of it - and it is a mental illness.
I always respond to -phobia accusations as: "I don't have an irrational fear of you I just hate your fucking degenerate guts"
Correct. I have no fear of these mentally disturbed fucks. I’m simply disgusted by them.
