saying something this edgy does not absolve you of bigotry

            They didn’t say you were black, they said you took the vile shit 4chan says regarding black people, changed it to say “white” instead, then posted it. And you haven’t offered a critique of interracial relationships, you’ve just declared that you’d shun your daughter if she dared to violate your wishes regarding who she becomes romantically involved with. “Betraying her people” is an extremely strong position to take regarding the human you’ve cared for and watched grow and learn for the past 20-odd years.

                I could say that it’d be fucked up for them to do that to me after everything I did to raise them.

                That’s flirting with being abuser talk. I’m going to chalk it up to you not actually having kids in reality, but if you do become a parent, please try to avoid talking to your kids like that, and try to do some introspection on your ideas of what children and parents owe each other.

                    To an observer, I would be indistinguishable from cis het, but finding oneself can be a fuck, so let’s call me a work in progress trending towards “not strongly identifying with or performing” my AGAB or another gender. Parent to plural children.

                    If they grow up to become bigots, it is my obligation to work to change that fact. The best chance I have to enact such change is to remain a part of their lives as much as they’ll allow. Above all else, however, I have an obligation to look out for their well-being. It may break my heart to be around them, but I brought them into this world, and so long as I’m around they will have a roof and a meal should they require it.

                    For this analogy to work, you’d have to replace “became a massive bigot towards LGBTQ+ people” with “dated a straight person,” or are you claiming that those two things are equivalent?
