On the contrary, it reflects very well on @improv's basic decency and convictions that he is unwilling to abide this behaviour. You appear to be actively going out of your way to hurt people. Whether you believe this or not, this is the result of your actions. This is not something we can just "disagree on"; you have no right to go out and hurt people.

To abide by what behavior?
Who am I going out of my way to hurt? that's quite a charge, I am sure you will have some quotes from my article to back that up right?
So let me get this right, if I object to the sterilization of children, if I object to state sponsored camps lying to children's parents then I am hurting people?

You have been told repeatedly by others exactly who your behaviour is hurting. As such, I find it hard to believe that your question here is genuine and in good faith.

It appears that you have somehow conflated freedom and respect of transgender people with sterilisation. This is an interesting insight into your mind. First, just because a person is a child doesn't mean they do not deserve to be treated with respect, and just because you do not understand their feelings does not make them unworthy of respect. Second, not all transgender people wish for physical treatment, and not all physical treatments result in sterility. Some may result in sterility, but it is not a defining factor. You are essentially saying that adolescents must keep their sense of smell in tact – and as such we cannot remove wisdom teeth. Loss of sense of smell is, of course, a risk involved in major oral surgery, but the reason we remove our wisdom teeth is not to lose our sense of smell.

You are correct that people must be aware of the risks involved in any treatment, as these are large decisions. All people, children or not, need a long time to make these decisions. But prepubescent children are in the unique position that they may delay puberty, buying themselves more time to be certain of the consequences with fairly little risk. This is by no means sterilisation.

I do not understand what you mean by "lying to children's parents" or "hiding the whole dirty business". What exactly is hidden, and what has been lied about? I think you are using deliberately inflammatory words which are not quite true ("lying") to incite an emotional response. Is this deliberate or accidental?

No, if you post transphobic propaganda and ask me to upvote it, I will take a look, and if I find I "disagree on rewards" for it or that it's "Hate Speech/Internet Trolling", I will downvote it.

I disagree politically with the vast majority of Steemit users, but I sometimes upvote them if they are expressing a viewpoint that provides insight into a topic. You are the only person I have ever downvoted (aside from obvious spam), and you have gotten, overall, more upvotes than downvotes from me.

I don't engage in casual downvoting, but you posted insults and general attacks on a vulnerable population, labeling them "crazy", "dirty", and "disturbed".

MUWAH, your the best. :) upvoted and following,

though I'm sure @funbobby51 will accuse you of virtue signalling.

Bahahahahahahaha

Thank you.

Actually, I think this fellow doesn't even consider it virtue signaling. This is actually my first encounter with what I've learned can be labeled "concern trolling". I've certainly engaged with transphobia before, but not the whole "trans rights activists are bad for trans people" perspective. That's just ... I dunno. Something else. Thank goodness we're not alone.

Now you are just lying, that's sad. Lets look at those words you quoted in context. You are claiming I said those about transgender people, really? Pathetic This is not attacking a vulnerable population:

"What's disturbing here is that they are going after children and teenage camp counselors and that these are state sponsored camps and that they hide the whole dirty business from the parents. I find it disturbing, disgusting and insidious, what do you think?"
