When the “woke” mania swept the country in 2020, I took a step back and reevaluated where I stood and why I stood there. To my surprise, I found that I agreed with conservatives and libertarians on a number of issues. I opposed childhood gender transitions, unlawful and divisive DEI mandates, and the excesses of Critical Race Theory. I argued against biological males competing in women’s sports and being housed in women’s prisons. I did so loudly and publicly, losing many friends along the way.
Today, some of those same attorneys I worked with are advocating for my right to marry my fiancée to be stripped away.
I fell for obvious right-wing propaganda and rationalized the hate with reason and logic. Now the hate machine is coming for me and that’s not fair!
I didn’t? I said the “one’s who are racist.” You can be a straight racist, trans racist, lesbian racist, gay racist, etc. I think I had this idea that marginalized people would stick up for other marginalized people. It’s shocking that there are a percentage that are just as shitty as the straight racists.

I edited and apologized, I haven’t had my coffee yet. I meant the lesbians who are racist are shocking.
Edit: Also, thanks for calling it out, it gave me a chance to see where I fucked up.

I think it still might sound shitty. I’ll try and fix it better. Thanks again.
I love comment chains like this! Kudos to you both.
