I know that there are a lot of trans people on hexbear, and I know their beliefs are sincere. What I don’t understand is how they square the fact that they would be brutally suppressed, r*****, tortured, murdered by the very groups/governments they unwaveringly love and support. It sickens me. Is it a manifestation of self-hatred? I just don’t get why they would degrade themselves like this.

    “No, you see taking on the US’s/NATO’s/West’s side doesn’t mean we uncritically support everything that they do. I would like the US to have different policies on [LGBTQ, healthcare, etc.]. But you saying that every citizen of Russia that isn’t currently active in overthrowing their government doesn’t deserve to suffer and be killed, and that fascists aren’t good just because they’re Ukrainian means that you endorse everything that Putin and Russia does”
