😬 cringe

The "lgb" group is kidding themselves if they think by helping the right wing go after gender identity they'll be spared from the culling.

I find that with people who think like that, they can have that view softened up alot if you try and actually ask them to articulate why they think it's a mental illness, but specifically you have to act innocent about it, like you don't understand why it would be a mental illness and you'd like him to explain it to you.

Their response to that can also help inform future steps.
