How do you keep an online conversation going?! After the first day talking I don’t know what to say anymore

it’s obviously important for ppl to criticize misogyny particularly transmisogyny in trans male communities since thats a trans community issue but if ur also tme and the only thing u ever exclusively talk about trans men for is talking abt us as bigoted misogynists (usually there’s a ‘binary’ slapped in front of it) i genuinely think you need to put the phone down go outside and remember that whatever insane misogynist guys online are saying is not a necessarily a reflection of like things adult men outside of a weird fringe group of freak transmisogynist dudes on tumblr who think the boys should get our own word JUST like the GIRLS or its NOT FAIR!! or whatever (and one coined by a fucking terf at that..) are saying, or justification for behaving weirdly about an entire diverse community of trans people.
again i do not say this to like dissuade ppl from discussing legitimate problems but like a couple points- 'binary' trans men r capable of talking about it ourselves, and we do, and we’re not the ones whose posts get shared about it. and second: if you’re only bringing us up to talk abt how shitty particularly TRANS men are you might have a problem you need to deal with? this is not a shocking statement. like at some point someone has to point it out to you and sit there and take the shit and patiently explain to you it’s that the problem comes when its literally the ONLY thing you bring us up for and act like we're not capable of talking abt this ourselves, and that its a problem how comfortable ppl r for letting ppl speak over/for us if the only similarity they share w trans men is.. an agab and not being cis (yikes!). or if theyre transmasc and male aligned in some capacity but dont have any interest in engaging with or considering themselves a part of like trans men, THEYRE the ones who need to talk abt it, bcuz the (usually 'binary') Trans Men wont (not saying those ppl cant or shouldnt but they may be treated differently for doing so)
first ppl liked using transmeds existing to throw up justification for treating us like a bigoted monolith you (uniquely) Just Dont Feel Safe Around and its normal to make assumptions abt us being transphobic especially if we don't identify by labels deemed 'safe' and Inherently More Radical, and now its pretending we all collectively cant recognize our privilege thru our intense blinding hatred of women and its up to you to save us from ourselves and beat some common sense into the inherently bigoted stupid about gender patriarchy dicksucker boys. like i dont know im tired of it when trans men being accused of only existing bcuz we want to be patriarchy bootlickers i guess is always what radfems have thrown at us, so its not like this negative perception of trans men filtered thru a supposedly progressive lense is new. a lot of adult trans men dont talk abt like particular hot shit thats discussed a lot on here rn (the 'trans misandry' shit for example) bcuz its was not a problem in the spaces we're in and we knew it was stupid as fuck right away and barely worth talking about to say 'yeah you know that thing we all know is stupid and bullshit? its stupid and bullshit'. bcuz we're not fifteen years old or weird misogynists. we have brains, don't hate women, and we dont all know and hang around the same people.
anyway dont take this post as a stand in for serious discussion and calling out misogyny (again especially transmisogyny) w other men, those posts do need to exist, i am not trying to say this stuff shouldnt be talked about. what i'm specifically pointing out is a frustrating pattern in the perception of and discussion of trans men that ppl probably dont realize theyre participating in. i do think it is very important to talk abt community issues and criticisms but if its literally the one thing you bring up trans men for i think being aware of that behavior has no NEGATIVES here. also do have to bring up i specified other tme ppl early on bcuz this isnt smth ive experienced or seen from transfems and their position as like the affected party of transmisogyny is automatically like .. if they have issues w trans men it is pretty inherently coming from a different place than like, a cis womans, or a tme nonbinary person, or a transmasc person with issues with trans men, or a cis mans, etc. tme ppl who are on a very different ground here, whose behavior is straight up different anyway

Naruto shippuden things that made me lose my mind (ep 321-346):
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 MADARA 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Taunade: We've been had! Mask man is not the real madara! (Would knowing who he was change literally anything? If u ignored him u wouldn't be prepared when he attacked with his giant gooey army?)
The 5 kage: we've got this naruto! We old ppl wanna change the world too (feels weird when gaara is a victim of all the bullshit ur trying to change and he's also a kage?)
Oh god. Fucking bubble boy is back.
Watching a flashback from the perspective of a sword... okay.
Naruto @ 4th mizukage: u died so young, u never knew the kiss of a woman 😭 Kurama: ...naruto, you've only kissed sasuke
Jugo: why r u following sasuke, Suigetsu? (Carnal desire, dont ask stupid questions)
Hhhh I don't wanna look at sasuke's loser gang, I think they're boring!
Madara fucking shit up: 🙂
🖤🖤🖤🖤 Hashirama face titty 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Itachi @ sasuke, on his way to do other shit: there's no point in talking anymore (itachi, I get it. And i kno u make up for it but I will fucking strangle u)
Madara @ tsunade: u have hashirama's blood in u so ill kill u 1st. Ur nothing compared to him. That man was a freak of nature. I fought him in a death match once 🥰
Other leaf nin: *threaten to withhold funds and steal from and rough up an orphanage* Orochimaru: watch out, someone might steal your precious children 👀
Kabuto: I will take orochimaru and I will put him inside myself. That is my final form (god... kabuto makes me so sad)
Sasuke: itachi u were perfect! (SASUKE NO!!! R U FUCKING INSANE??? ITACHI WAS SO FUCKED UP HE DECIDED HE WAS JUSTIFIED IN KILLING HIS ENTIRE FAMILY AND GIVING HIS BROTHER SUPER TRAUMA. THEN HE DIED AND HIS PLAN EXPLODED IN HIS FACE POST MORTEM)
Sasuke: itachi, the more time I spend with u, the more I understand u and the more I hate konoha (SASUKE YES!!! Your brother is somehow still fucking brainwashed)
Orochimaru upon revival: my one and only interest is sasuke's young body (😰)
Naruto: WTF HAPPENED TO THE 5 KAGE?! Madara: eh idk they're probably not doing too good *cut to a bunch of bodies*
Obito: I hate u!!! Zetsu: 🤨👎
"I'm in hell" is a dark episode but the title makes me laugh everytime I see it
Obito's hashirama arm is real yucky. I love it.
Madara: I will take this tiny piece of hashirama and shove it into my chest. As any normal person would.
While no one was looking... madara implanted his own eyes into nagato's head...
