I know that there are a lot of trans people on hexbear, and I know their beliefs are sincere. What I don’t understand is how they square the fact that they would be brutally suppressed, raped, tortured, murdered by the very groups/governments they unwaveringly love and support. It sickens me. Is it a manifestation of self-hatred? I just don’t get why they would degrade themselves like this.
“officially” israel is better for LGBT+ people, but the reality is that israeli media is still full of periodic stories of queer folk being the victim of mob violence for being queer. they’re still stoning gay people there, even if it’s not technically the state that does it.
they just don’t try very hard to figure out who the culprits are.
I wish I could say I was surprised.
