But we know that’s not how transporters work

Do we? Transporters are magic. They’ve never been logically consistent. Half the episodes either would have resolved in 5 minutes or never happened if they were.

this stuff may be just handwavy bulls#!t at

Fully agreed. Just like transporters :P

My headcanon is that they have feedstocks and are just teleporting atoms around and gluing them together, maybe adding and electron here and there. If anything it’s the most consistent use of their transporters.

It is explicitly chosen by Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERFs) as well as by right-wing transphobes

It can also be used by people with no agenda, including most of the non-western world. Language policing is ridiculous. You want to cancel the transphobes? Stop giving them power and reclaim their terms from them.

Agreed with the other commenter, there’s no real reason to think the author’s transphobic due to a random phrase. We as a society really need to stop organising witch hunts.
