I already know those people well. Hence the “friends” and family. The rest of your post is just trying to paint me as something I’m not.
How do you feel about the comments in this thread that I was calling out?
Then your ignorant comments are even more difficult to explain. My post isn’t painting you as anything, outside of referencing a few of your posts all I’m offering is a suggestion that will help you curb your ignorance and get to some level of understanding that’s actually helpful. I would think someone who knows and presumably understands what so many of his friends and family members are going or have gone through and does so much volunteering wouldn’t offer a “no thanks” to carving out even a few hours to spend a little bit of his incredibly vast volunteering time for organizations that might be important to them.
What’s your relationship to the trans person (or people) you know? How do they feel about the exclusionary language you use and the rape jokes targeting them?
The comments you were “calling out” were crass, but labelling them “homophobia” when you’re the one who put the anti-gay slant on them hardly makes sense to me. If you speak with your many friends and family members, I’m sure they’d be happy to educate you on how to tell the difference, much of which comes down to intent. I mean, there’s a whole thread dedicated to the topic where someone recently shared a bunch of transphobic nonsense. If you care, maybe check it out and be the ally you’re saying you are.
And answer Wormius’ question. Or don’t. But certainly an ally who cares about these issues can respond to a perfectly reasonable question better than “get some help.”

I don’t have time to address everything here right now. I speak to family and friends regularly. We don’t have any problems with language or anything.
As for Wormius post, you already answered that exact question in a different thread. I agree with your answer.
How many reels do I need to block/flag until I stop seeking this mook on Facebook/Instagram?
Solution: delete Facebook / Instagram.

"We're Christians. We believe in turning to prayer. We're still going to do that, but it comes to a point where you start assassinating politicians... we're going to have to take a stronger stand against that," Langevin said.
K, but Kirk wasn't a politician. You know who was a politician who got shot and killed? Melissa Hortman. So you must be talking about her, then.

LOL, they want to shoot the Jesus into us. That'll bring peace and unity. Christofacism seems to be the answer.

America is so thoroughly and deeply ####ed. There is no un-####ing it. Any talk of a soon to be un-####ing is clearly delusional. How do you un-#### these people? You don't. Because they are ####ed to the core.

It is sad.
I have many friends and family that live there. Some see it, and some do not.
