AMUSING, INTERESTING, OUTRAGEOUS, or PROFOUND

The entitlement of the average right winger really is something to behold.

I don't highly enforce my pronouns. Not because it doesn't effect me but because being labeled a troublemaker who is hard to get along with is a career limiting move... And some interactions are so limited that it's not worth creating social awkwardness to self advocate. Days where this happens a lot make me depressed, grumpy and eats into the energy I have reserved to enjoy my leisure time.

Which is why it is so frustrating that some people demand that calling me by my dead name or refer openly to my sex using pronouns I hate is completely consequenceless that even when I tell them the only reprocussion to them is that I will not like being around very much them they get angry. Like I am cheating them of being owed that I automatically enjoy their company.

They are so bloody sensitive that the consequence of me thinking they are kind of shit to be around is somehow a tyranny. I just wanna yell at them like dude.. You keep bringing attention to the physical body that represents my least favorite aspects of existing by mentioning directly in conversation because that's what words like "she", "her", "girl" and "woman" mean to you. You might as well be openly talking about my fucking genetalia because that is your only qualifier for using those words. You are reflecting the things I didn't like about about the experience of myself back at me. If I openly referenced your least favorite physical trait every time casually in conversation how much would you enjoy being around me?

Very, VERY much depends on HOW we disagree politically.

People who say things like “you shouldn’t select your friends over politics” obviously have a basic misunderstanding. I don’t really want friends who are immoral, ignorant and can’t tell fact from fiction.

If your political opinion includes the phrase " you should die"

It's going to be hard to stay friends

My brother didn't believe there were homeless children and didn't want universal healthcare because it would support fat people.

How do I just carry on as if that isn't simultaneously hilariously stupid and depressingly evil?

This reminds me of the, "We can negotiate and find a middle ground" argument. No we fucking can't. Your opening position is so extreme that there is no possible way that we can find a middle ground because even the middle ground would be too extreme for me to accept.

Strong disagree, I want to be friends with people who genuinely care and follow what they believe. That doesn't need mean they need to be right about everything. And people shouldn't be bullied for being wrong(in my, or majority opinion) if its genuine. I prefer someone with totally different beliefs to me who genuinely cares about and follows what they believe in, to someone who just accepts what's popular.

I don't care how "nice" someone is, I'm Trans and if someone disagrees with my basic rights then they can piss off.

I can’t be friends with someone who votes against my ability to access my medication, and my rights to access healthcare and employment without discrimination. If you are voting for people who think of people like me as subhuman, then you don’t respect me enough to be my friend.
