what a fucking loon

I have never heard cis being used as a slur.
I actually have. Mind I don't have a problem with the word in particular but I've read it used as a slur on the Internet and in real life.

Some people are just looking for something to be upset about.

Petty and eyeroll-worthy? Yeah. Also an unforced error on the part of trans rights? Probably.
It's literally the Latin counterpart of "trans" nobody in the trans rights community decided on that word. Trans in Latin means "on the other side of" and Cis means "on this side of". Cisgender - Transgender
