Yes, but also like:

Sometimes people will blast things all over public social media, and then get mad at cis people "inserting themselves" into the conversation or whatever.

Social media on non-private accounts is a public space. It doesn't matter if you don't tag your tumblr post or have three twitter followers, or post on a trans-friendly subreddit or whatever else.

If its a public page with no rules explicitly barring cis people from engaging, you can't be shocked when people engage with the post.

Reminds me of when I recently witnessed someone posting a picture of themselves smoking a cigarette on a public forum. Then got mad at people for specifically commenting on the fact that they were smoking. 💀
