MODERATORS
The first statement, worded exactly as it is, could be really helpful in certain spaces. Those words open doors into closed minds, into which the message of acceptance and support can slide. A MAGA who hears them could feel they could start being decent to their trans child or nibling without losing their whole identity. Which isn't much, to the whole world. But it could be the whole world to that kid.
