It doesn't need to enclose everything or be perfectly aligned or anything.

If it looks somewhat similar and is around Asia, it represents that 9 dash line, whether intentional or not.

Same if somehow you saw a not-swastika around a rotated "Germany" etc. Or the "OK" symbol being used now due to the taint of rightwing chuds. If you know, you damn well know what it means.

Like of course it could just be jokes or satirical, but some countires want zero reminders or legitimaizing of this.

Spat at, treated as so vile that one would need to wash their mouth out simply from having seen it. There is no degree of separation and there is no speaking to it being a thing of the past because, while you may not see a feature release do the same anytime soon, that reaction to our bodies is still extremely common in society. Not simply disliked, but rejected to the point where they are up for debate on whether they should even be allowed to exist. That is what banning healthcare results in right. So it's not so much that the scene in Ace Ventura is a thing of the past, rather it's an element of the past with a direct line to how trans bodies are seen and treated today.

This is fucking nonsense tbh.
An explicitly not trans man who dresses as a woman isn't transphobic because transphobes say there's no difference any more than laughing at monkeys dressed like people is inherently racist because racists call coloured people monkeys, you utter fucking cretin.

By calling that transphobia YOU are the one stating there is no difference between a man dressing in drag to perform nefarious acts and the trans community that you purport to represent and speak for

But since I generally like the Alien franchise, I'm very much willing to give benefit of the doubt to him for this one. Let's hope the quality will be closer to Evil Dead 2013.
