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. My stance wasn’t rooted in hate or fear but in a commitment to reason and fairness. My loyalty was to the truth, not to political tribes. Maintaining my integrity cost me greatly, but I believed it was worth it.

      Hey. Let’s not be assholes about who passes as what. Everybody has bad days, seeing her scales under the human skin suit isn’t a reason to be a bigot and turn off her heat rock.

          God forbid you consider the real reason you’re being downvoted. But you won’t get anymore downvotes from me since I won’t be seeing any more of your shitty comments or posts.

            I’m being downvoted because I said I’m attractive. Does that sound reasonable to you?

            Fuck off
