  • is it wrong/selfish to cut contact with my trump-supporting father?

  • It's about you, you're not doing it to make a point. You're doing it to protect your mental health. Maybe you can approach it from that angle with your father. And if he carries on the way he did then I guess he got a fair warning.

  • why do transphobes mention pedophiles/compare them to pedophiles when most trans people (as do most people) hate pedophiles?

  • Transgender people often (wrongly) get their gender identity conflated with their sexuality. Transphobes already have a visceral reaction to a transgender person, so those feelings automatically extend to how they see a transgender person's sexuality. And as others have mentioned they may be projecting their own perversions on other people. They have an unhealthy view of sexuality in general, which may be the origin for their transphobia aswell.

    When I came out to my mother as transgender she had a hard time dealing with it. She seemed to have a weird fixation with my sexuality and sexual orientation whenever I tried to educate her on the subject, even after I explained to her that sexuality and sexual orientation is not related to my transgender identity.

    My mom has always been a prude when it came to raising her boys and constantly would police our vocabulary and sexual jokes. But she had no issues making jokes and comments about my sexuality when I came out to her as a transgender woman. So I can only assume she had unresolved issues with the way she sees sexuality in a way that it makes her uncomfortable and she was projecting her own perversions and unhealthy view of sexuality onto my transgender identity. Because to her why else would I transition if not for my sexual perversions, since that's the only way she can see world.

    On a side note, ever since I started my transition I pretty much stopped watching porn all together. I masturbate less and my mind isn't constantly fixated on sex and I'm able to experience the world through a much healthier lense. When I'm attracted to someone now, I'm not distracted by my sexual impulses as much and I'm much better able to connect with them as a person. So in short, embracing my transgender identity has dramatically decreased my uncontrolled sexual impulses. So when people paint us as some sort of deviant perverts, it's actually quite the opposite and nothing could be further from the truth. Not to mention, our sexuality is only a sliver of our transgender identity and we don't care for strangers making it a focus.

  • Listen for a sec, the situation is a lot worse that you think.

    Elon Musk has complete control of the Treasury. He hacked his way into the system, locked out all government employees. Migrating the data to private servers and deleting all government backups

    All of the money is in his control with no way for anyone in the government to get back control over it

    And even if they were to arrest Musk and seize his private servers. The damage might be so extensive it will be impossible to rebuild the agencies he destroyed.

    He doesn't give a fuck about the title. He is in defacto control of the US government. He can literally control what the US military can and cannot purchase, who gets payroll and who gets fired. From the highest ranking general to the janitors in the Smithsonian.

    Do you see where we are at?
