Serious inquiry: can you substantiate, in specific terms, what about Helel's actions were discrimination?

I'll set aside the "dead naming" thing for now (already mentioned it in previous post I just made), but if you consider "misgendering" to be an offense that should be against the rules, what you are basically implying is that a person should not be allowed to refer to a transgender person unless that person is willing to acknowledge the other's identity switch. If you don't believe in transgender identity to begin with, that basically means you are not allowed to refer to that person at all, which is a form of trying to force them to change their opinions. Dead-naming and misgendering someone after knowing of their transition is discrimination if it was done intentionally.
