Hi comrades. I got a bit wasted last night and posted a comment that wasn't well thought out or worded and came off as not supporting the trans community. If you read my comment history I've said nothing but total love and support for all my trans comrades so I feel really terrible about it. I tried to delete the comment and reply to the other comments in the thread but it looks like they have banned me.

So I want to just say for the record I love and support you all, and we are all in this fight together. I don't want to create any division or make anyone feel less awesome than they are so please accept my apology.

I didn't see the offending comment, but, generally speaking, forgiveness is cool. I myself caused a struggle session when I lectured Hexbear not to show disrespect on Pope Francis death. Then I edited that comment when I realized it was dumb.

I got disappointed for causing trouble but at least it was a learning opportunity. Recent Popes may have generally nice words, but sweet talk can hide grave evil. Malcolm X comes to mind.

Here in Brazil, for example, some priests use their huge media influence to indoctrinate the faithful with far-right lunacy. Both the Church and the State ought to punish these criminals, but AFAIK neither do.
