Forgive me, but I don't completely understand. What do I pretend to believe in? I have done exactly what I preached. I respected the creator's opinion while still giving mine. We are having a completely civil discussion about this topic which I personally find enjoyable and stimulating. I apologize if I've offended you in any way, your response seems a bit hostile (even if that's not the intention)

True true, i respect all differences in opinions, the best example being when we respected Ronald Reagan's differences in political beliefs so hard he killed hundreds of thousands of people by ignoring the aids epidemic and refusing to allow anyone in the administration to even talk about it.
Politics and life are inseperable and im sorry if im being uncharitable but i have no time for this arguement. A friend of mine was recently assaulted and thrown out of a club by her hair by security for the crime of attempting to use a toilet while being trans, so dont you dare say this is about a difference of opinion, opinions lead to actions and those who voice those opinions should be called what they are, bigots, and im tired of people who telling me i shouldnt be angry when people I love are threatened.
i dont want a dialogue with you, because im going to get angry and neither of us needs that in the comments of a silly little game, but please dont tell us how were supposed to feel, because you dont have clue how it feels
I'm not telling you how to feel, I'm just expressing how I feel. If you feel that I'm pushing my opinions on you then I'm sorry and I probably won't be making any more comments on this topic. But I will say that it is a difference of opinion. Not everyone is going to throw someone out of a club for trying to use the bathroom while trans, but if the majority of the country agrees on something then there is nothing to be done but protest and hope for the best. And don't assume that I don't know how it feels, I'm not saying I know the exact feeling, but I have been oppressed and profiled for the crime of being born with more melanin in my skin. I have watched my people die and be tortured, just as you have watched yours. My point is that life sucks for everyone, and it will continue to suck until we as people decide to respect each other's differences and come together for solutions. If I'm being honest, I don't think that will happen in my youth, but I have hope for gen alpha. I'm not saying don't be angry, but channel that anger into creating solutions and making changes.
it just seemed silly to me that someone preaching "everything is valid, it's all just personal beliefs, let's all smile and agree to disagree" would actually attempt tone policing someone else.
and then, if i sounded hostile, it's probably because i was, indeed, annoyed. the position you're defending has been defended more times than there are stars in the universe (a whole fucking lot!), and in my little experience, it's more often than not proclaimed by people who have no understanding of social dynamics of power, no lived experience of discrimination, or both. i'm sorry if you caught some hostility up there.. it just gets boring to be told by randos to respect the "opinions" of a group that wants you dead.
