Also, someone who spends all day every day writing articles about how trans people should detransition to receive God’s love or something could also, from their perspective, say they’ve “written thousands of paragraphs in support of trans people.” Volume is nothing, content is everything, and the content of this person’s screed veers awfully close to standard reactionary bullshit with that “you people just want to be offended!” chestnut.
If they’re all comments from a sports subreddit like the screenshot shows, it’s probably to do with defending the rights of a trans athlete to play the sport, at least I would guess so. So the content is likely fine. It’s just that most online comments are hypotheticals and don’t really track with how someone would deal with a similar situation in person, due to the way the internet works with anonymity and all.
I looked into their posts on Reddit and they did post stuff against the trans ban in sports there, but their understanding of the systemic nature of trans discrimination is… Lacking
