So yesterday my cishet friend went on a far right rant about lgbt going too far and today he just started accusing me of shit because I reached out to who is now my only friend he get really angry that I told twh rest of his friends about what he did and then called me a fascist. I’m just tired of everything
Had a similar situation happen a few days ago. A friend in one of my group chats is perpetually on Twitter and gets constantly fed anti-LGBT shit. Then he was complaining about “LGBT books indoctrinating kids in schools,” and his evidence was just a video of the GayBCs book. He kept ranting about that gay people are pushing sexuality on kids, then I turned it back on how we’ve grown up with straight sexuality pushed on us, and all he said was “but that’s natural.” He’s pretty much rotted his brain just by sticking to Twitter and believing every right winger’s weak, tired arguments and outrage.
The last 7(ish) years of watching people in my life who appeared ‘normal’ slide into full throated endorsement of fascism has been both fascinating and absolutely horrifying. I hate the thought of cutting some of them out of my life, but haven’t hesitated for a moment to do so.
It sucks and I’m so sorry you’re going through this.
