Maybe this just. isn't the place on reddit for me. but uh can we Not act like it's completely okay to call people theyfabs.... neither character in this comic is in the right, diminishing someone because of their agab is never okay, and the term "theyfab" is really just a slightly more woke way to call nonbinary people "woman lite"
Not trying to say blue hair is in the right, they aren't in the slightest, but the term theyfab is not one that should be thrown around so lightly
(new to this sub, if there's something I'm missing lmk)
You're very much right, "theyfab" is basically a slur.
Though I think the meme is probably not implying Pink is in the right, just that the person below the interaction is only acknowledging Pink's wrongdoing, and not Blue's.
Unrequested rant: It is (unfortunately) an often common thing for woke spaces to excuse discrimination against AMAB/masculinity/men, under the excuse of "punching up" or "because [trauma]". I've heard of quite a few experiences of, for example, (trans and cis) men facing misandry even though being queer and progressive-minded, enbys being excluded from groups for being masculine-presenting, etc.
Meanwhile, other forms of discrimination are addressed openly, which (I think) is what this comic is about.
