I can appreciate that, but IMO, reverting to someone's given name as opposed to their preferred name and calling someone the N word isn't in the same ballpark.

If someone were to say that Jenner should be called the "T" word, then that would an apt comparison.

That's not what's happening in this case.  Jenner's voting and vocal support of the anti-trans movement has voided the respect required to be called by a preferred name.  Just as I might call some other fascist asshole Dick even though I know they want to by Richard.

I don't have the energy, nor the desire to cater to fascist fee-fees

This has vibes like my brother who can't come around to not calling Asians "Orientals".  Its just not a big fucking deal. It's like you are digging in for no reason.

 

Bruce is dead; replaced by asshole Caitlyn.

It’s not how you intend something. It’s how others perceive it. 
 

By all means do what you want, just realize it hurts some people

Also the post was that started all this reminded me of

The fact that you can't see the difference between the two scenarios is a "you" problem, not a me problem.  

Individual vs collective.

Truth is I'm not a particularly empathic person so how other people perceive things isn't really a concern of mine.  It's a character flaw, to be sure, but it's not something I have control over.  

I've actually been diagnosed with mild psychopathy ...and yes, it is measured on a spectrum.

I'm not sure any poster on Hornfans/Shaggy/Surly has ever said something about themselves that surprised me less.

And your point?  Am I supposed to be ashamed that I suffer from a mental health issue?

Stigmatizing people with mental health issues is why many are afraid to admit they have them. 

I'm not ashamed of it

Edit for Empathy. I hope you find help and peace.
