Is this about trans people or what?
It looks to me like it's making fun of the really bad brain worms that permeate the trans 4chan community. There's a very specific type of brain wormed in-group jargon being made fun of here. The orange stick figure is saying they'll never be orange but we can clearly see they're just... orange. The brain worms are so bad that they believe even while being orange, they aren't actually. The green stick figure, not being involved with the community or perspective of it, is a representation of the few people trying to break the brain worms within the community. The author knows exactly where the terms being parodied come from and wrote it for that audience
It's the kind of thing that's utterly incomprehensible to anyone who isn't familiar with 4tran or tttt
Just knowing about 4chan and the kind of people that use the place, that seems like one of the most harmful places on the internet for trans people. It's honestly shocking that there's so much of a community there.
Consider that people before transition are not necessarily any different from any other people. You can have very racist, transphobic, alt-right people secretly harboring trans feelings themselves. Sometimes people will turn to those spaces as a coping mechanism and then they become entrenched and invested in the communities. Just because they eventually finally accept their transness doesn't mean they're willing to let go of it entirely or the personality archetype they've developed as a part of it. If they leave it entirely just because they transitioned , they may not have another community they feel enough a part of to fall back on. Everyone needs and wants some sort of feeling of community even when it isn't good for them. It can be very hard to break out of toxic spaces when it's the only space you know and it's practically defined you as a person, sometimes for most people's adult lives
Nah, it's poking fun at incels and their 4chan jargon.
Oh, what does 'grayscalemoding' mean then?
it's a replacement for boymoding

and yes this post is about being trans, more specifically how 4chan is harmful for trans people.
It does look similar to the 4tran stuff but that's most of the terminology I've seen leak from there so maybe other 4chan communities use similar language
Ignore me, I was misinterpreting it and others have explained it ~~Presumably being less orange in some way. None of it actually means anything, all of Orange's words are a parody of that incel terminology. Orange is naturally less orange than they would like to be and is going to some lengths to become more orange, but doesn't think that the results are convincing to others and that they will never really be orange in the same way that Green is green~~
Looks like it to me based what I've seen of people poking fun at the toxic trans 4chan stuff.
