you started off by saying "oh in the original book the author said he wasn't trans", then acknowledged "now his character might still be detrimental to the perception of trans people," but still only say it MIGHT cause problems and follow it up by further defending the author. you then ignore everyone talking about how buffalo bill not being trans doesn't make it better and continue to defend the author despite the fact that you're the only one who cares about the author
regardless of your intent all you're doing is defending transphobia. just admit it's transphobic and move on! it's a 36 year old book, it doesn't matter! stop trying to defend it when that's exactly what the original post was about!!!!!!
