Sadly I agree.
it isnt very creative though, Ive heard that one before
Who the hell is Dahmer?
Jeff Dahmer was a vicious serial killer. I donât want to speak to it any further, other than thereâs a Netflix series about it now.
Disgusting. What did the guy post about him?
That he watched it on Netflix and it reminded him of people here.
I only believe this coming from you because I can see the evidence still, despite the original post being deleted.
Itâs quite a bucked up thing to say.
Tbh posts like that remind me why spaces like these are so important. Itâs easy to think that everything is fair and equal, but it isnât. A lot of us live our lives having to censor ourselves and watch our step to not offend other peopleâs world views and itâs exhausting.
Some people are going to hate our existence no matter what. And Iâm honestly tired of having to watch my step and having to be the âbetter personâ just to⌠protect their feelings? When weâre constantly bombarded with attacks on our mental health and someone even comparing us to a serial killer?
GurlâŚ
Kinda why I gave up trying to be a âgood transâ.
A bigot will either hate you to your face or will hate you behind your back. So its a waste of energy trying to be all friendly.
nod nod Been there. Thereâs initially a sense of validation in being told youâre âone of the good onesâ, but it doesnât last. You feel like a sellout and like you have to keep biting your tongue and smiling at the same dehumanizing remarks and âjokesâ even though itâs killing you inside.
And if and when you do speak up about something going beyond the pale, you quickly stop being âone of the good onesâ. Itâs just not worth it.
I agree with you, here. This is for EVERYONE, though.
Or the incredibly slow poison that is âOh parents say they accept you. But they never bother with correct pronouns or standing up for you against the more toxic relativesâ
Agreed. Everyone is equal.
I never had this issue with my parents, we all eventually cut out my toxic siblings and have ever since acted like itâs just me and them, Iâm sorry if you or others have went through that because that sucks and Iâm sorry.
I wish I had that option. My family is tiny because my incredibly toxic grandma made people straight up leave the family entirely.
Things werenât great for awhile with Mom and I but progress is slowly happening. 8 years of that âpoisonâ though. Was not fun.
Unfortunately, theyâre not always treated that way
Iâm very sorry to hear that, if I knew you in my real life you are the type of person I would of invited to come live with us instead of having to go through that, dealing with that, etc. because thatâs absolutely horrible.
Heh I do tend to radiate âAnybody gonna adopt this guy? No?â energy with friends lol
To be fair, at least from my family/relatives, the tone has shifted from âgay people should die,â to âshould gay people existâ. So thatâs progress I guess. I still enjoy seeing their shocked reactions when I say that I think that there are evolutionary benefits to homosexuality (e.g. by providing more resources to their families). The catch-22 here is that itâs usually the families that end up rejecting them so they donât get to enjoy the financial benefits and extra time we have to take care of the elderly
Haha, I love that and yeah I totally would as well.
