in my experience, speaking as a trans person, someone with slightly right leaning opinions wants me and mine to not exist in public and deny that we even exist. that’s a “centrist” position these days. so sorry for being touchy but I think salvaging people like that can only happen by the people close to them pushing them to be a better person. see my comment on civility, point 4, here.
I should have been more clear on what I meant. Just that having slightly right leaning opinions is not the same as the OP’s insanity.
I really didn’t mean for it to come off that way, so I apologize.

That’s absolutely a fair point
