I hate extreme right, but I hate the left more for what they've done to this place. So the only position I can take is just normal right. I'd like to be neutral but I just can't anymore.

I filtered lgbt because my daughter is trans. Believe me when I tell you that the lgbt (online) community is nothing like lgbt real life people. Trans people just want to be treated equal, no special attention required, no dragging, priding or rainbow flags. She says you give people with a mental disability special attention, so she thinks it is an insult if you do. I follow her stance so I blocked lgbt.

I don't talk about politics because other people get angry. Actually like you did in your first respond :p

Trans people aren't asking for special treatment, they're asking to not be discriminated against. They're asking to be recognised as who they are, just like cis people take for granted. They're murdered at a shockingly high rate. Advocating for their rights isn't giving your daughter special treatment, it's asking for her to expect the same level of safety everyone else enjoys. If you want that for her, the right with all their fearmongering about the dangerous trans women are the ones putting her in more danger. They're the ones that are likely to hurt her just for existing as who she is. It's the left that will fight for her safety, but again, not politicians. The organised left.

Only someone with the privilege to ignore all of the oppression that's going on wants to be "neutral", because neutrality favours the oppressor. That's why people get angry when you talk about politics. That's classic centrism.

You absolutely and totally misunderstand what drag, pride, and rainbow flags are all about.

It is not at all about wanting special attention, and you further show your ignorance by making such a statement.

Also, just because you know someone who happens to be LGBT, doesn't mean their personal views and perspective on things is totally valid for everyone else who is LGBT.

You're either trolling, or you don't realize how much of an asshole you actually are.
