    Looks like the typical social media comments from regular users too. It’s “just” the typical transphobia and pridephobia or what its called. I wouldn’t call it the worst person, but definitely not a pleasant person based on the presented information. To make it clear: I am not defending his opinion.

      It also seems like he learned and went back on his comments somewhat, I think we should encourage people making mistakes and growing from them, not demonizing them even if they try to change

        I don’t know if he isnt as public or I haven’t been paying attention, or people haven’t been reporting on him, but after the initial series of rants, I haven’t seen him making unhinged comments. So that’s nice. Maybe he’s keeping his opinions to himself now. That said… he has a right to have a public opinion on this one.

      He also did some white supremacy, talking about how certain races must be worse because if incarceration and great replacement theory nonsense etc.

      Been a while since I looked into it, so I can’t remember specifics, but it was more stuff than what you mentioned
