I'm kind of interested in hearing you guys' thoughts about this, possibly rebutting this if possible.

Here's my rebuttal:
The guy doesn't put forward a single valid point because he has no idea what being transgender is at all.
I really don't know where to start, the guy must be really dumb if he is confused by this.
At 5:15 he says he doesn't "give a fuck" about what people identify as, but he still makes this video?

Classic edgy attitude. Wants to seem as aloof as possible despite being the opposite.

I apply libertarian ideals to transgenderism. Be what you want, whatever mang, its your life.
This dude has no idea what hes talking about

I dont understand videos like this. Youd thinl if you were going to go through the effort of making a video about a topic you'd at least do some research on the topic

Well he starts off by going "yeah, there be biological evidence n shit but dat language doh".
This video is annoying language policing nonsense. You can't just be a man, no, you need to always specify that you're a transman.
The part at 4:00 where "man" and "woman" change places between two stock photos of a man and a woman while BasedVidya struggles to grasp the complexity of words really sums up this video.
lmao funny how he keeps mocking how caitlyn jenner looks in a swimsuit when this guys teeth look as if hes taken a brick to the face
Oh god I actually want to throw up from looking at the youtube comments
holy fuck
"oh man I don't care
I don't care so much
*hueghgh* """""""""kaitlyn"""""""""" jener amirite *uhurhrhhhhhhhhggggg*"
Imagine being as braindead as the guy who made this video.
Such minimal effort, such a lack of emotion.
I honestly feel bad for this guy because I can't fathom how hard it must be to be so purposefully ignorant.

There is MtF and FtM, then there are people who want to nullify their gender but I do not consider those trans at all because they are not changing gender, they are removing it. End of story, roll credits. Those that call themselves "skaterboy hotairballoonkin" are just attention whores who try hard to make it not seem obvious that they are. Gender dysphoria is a serious condition that both requires medical and psychiatric treatment. End of line, no special treatment beyond that. And I am saying this as a person with actual issues on that matter.

"No, you don't understand. I have a PhD in Videogame Studies and I am a world renowned specialist on social issues because I post on 8chan, and here's how you're wrong:
*shits out of mouth*"
That sums up the video more or less.

Because we still live in a place where if you don't specify that you're trans you can get beaten or murdered!
I mean if you actually [I]gave a fuck[/I] you'd understand rather than just writing it off as "haha language policing :^)"

So he's posting flamebait. Good to know
Let me quick save my third Witcher 3 playthrough real quick while I lay down some knowledge about complicated social, legal, and political commentary about an issue that I profess to have little knowledge or interest in but feel is insightful enough to warrant other peoples acknowledgement.

I was saying that he's language policing. The entire video is about the language that transpeople use and how it should be made "clearer" like the lgbt movements language.
A transperson can't just be a man, no, they need to always specify that they're a transman, etc.
Theres nothing wrong with not really caring about whether or not theres any biological reasoning behind being trans. All of the problems caused by being trans are societal and if we change society all of those problems evaporate. So yeah, I don't really care in that regard.
gamers are confusing

The issue here is not with gamers. It is with ignorance.
I thought gamers were dead.

No they don't? In what context do you mean? Every context?

how are you misunderstanding what he said here lmao
like are you purposefully trying to misconstrue what Ranger said as him thinking that?
he made it abundantly clear, and he even made that second post specifically to clarify, that he meant that's what the guy in the video believes

ah shit sorry, didnt see rangers previous post. yea no probs if only meant to clarify what the uploader meant in the video, but I understood it rather as something ranger agreed with
[editline]20th February 2016[/editline]
actually reading it a third time I still kinda grasp it as something ranger thinks, that any transpeople need to announce they are 'trans'
