I can’t help your reading comprehension. Do you consider yourself to be politically partisan?
I can’t pretend I’m the spitting image of unbiased-ness, but I certainly don’t go as far as to agree with everything from any particular party.
I actually think, ironically, that allowing the existence of gay people is something the so-called “party of small government” should support. How do these small government supporters think “small government” is supposed to police who everyone’s allowed to have sex with?
Conditional agreement to the paradoxity of whither side you happen to be, well that is a madness to that trumped up method, such as religion is not only necessary to the soul, but models are imperiously conditional toward that objective,
The modeling is controversial because moral and ethical standards have no defaulted exists. It’s no longer a will to power, but reversely,
You need to give the online bullshit-generator a rest.

Had a friend who became transgender. He was abused psychologically and sexually as a young boy.
I told him he needs to heal the trauma and that transgender therapy is only going to deepen it.
He got angry then cut me off for “not supporting him”.
.
That’s awfully sad.
Too many young people are having their childhood taken from them because of abuse.

Thats the average reaction you get from someone who is incapable of facing their trauma and instead demand of others to support, justify, enable and affirm their escapism and coping.

K: a couple of things, One, your transgender friend, all he/she is trying
to do is heal from trauma… I get that… and so should you…
Trying to heal from trauma is hard, very, very hard… we should be
supportive of those trying to heal from Trauma… now, one may not
support the path chosen to heal the trauma, but that isn’t your choice…
as for EOD, supporting others with trauma is supporting, and justify
and enable and affirm… you say, escapism and coping, but
that has a serious lack of empathy for others who are just
trying to heal from trauma…or said another way, your way of
healing from trauma is different from my way, why don’t you
respect that fact… now changing sexes, from where I sit,
is quite a bit extreme for healing from trauma, but it isn’t my
choice, nor is it my trauma, and why shouldn’t I respect that
their solution for healing isn’t my solution, and that is ok…
the important aspect is that they are trying to heal and more
power to them in taking that journey…

Reading your entire comment its safe to say that you do not understand the difference between healing a trauma and maladaptive coping.
One heals the trauma, the other makes it part of your identity as it progressively destroys your life and everyone’s around you.
Is it easier for you to understand the problem when the coping mechanism manifests in substance abuse? Do you think the person who reaches for alcohol or heroin as a result of a trauma, is healing?
There is nothing healing about joining the LGBTQ community and becoming a cocksleeve in return for emotional support. The closest description of that would be predatory grooming. A passtime the LGBTQ community revels in.

K: It must be nice to live on your high moral horse… and of course, your
life is perfect with no problems or issues? unlike you, I do not pretend
to know what each person trauma is or how to deal with it… let us take
a common problem and see what it says… alcohol addiction, I know
a bit about it as my father died of alcoholism… and for some, there are
never ‘‘cured’’ of being an alcoholic… some need, and I know some people
for whom this works, is AA… and if that what helps, I am all for it…
for many, not all, but many, alcohol is a means of overcoming the pain
of trauma… and again, unlike Nausamedu, I do not pretend to
have the high moral ground in making moral judgments about people…
and it’s nice to see that Naus believes because one is LGBTQIA,
one then automatically tries to engage in ‘‘predatory grooming’’..
there is no moral judgements there, right? No, I leave the
‘‘predatory grooming’’ to the many republicans who have been
charge with such crimes, including IQ45 best friend, Epstein…
and IQ45 has been accused by credible people as being
a ‘‘child rapist’’ and has been convicted of rape and sexual assault
in a courtroom… (Which he has admitted to, ‘‘grab them by the
pussy’’ is an admission of sexual assault)
Anyway, back at the ranch, your post is an admission of lacking
any empathy or sympathy for those who are suffering from trauma…
you might say, their own actions ‘‘convict them’’ but that is second
guessing other people in their own suffering/trauma…
Which in fact is leading me to creating a thread to address this…
my answers will be in my next thread… which will begin
in 5-4-3-2-1…

Aah, the classic last-resort philosophical counterargument for the truly desperate of ‘whataboutism’. Works every time 
And praytell what is this moral high horse you speak of?
How am i better, more or superior because of what i said?
Which part of my words elevate me above everyone else?
Was it me saying that you dont understand what maladaptive coping is? Thats an observation and it hardly makes me superior to you. Or do you think otherwise?
Thats what the word “maladaptive” refers to.
Its an adaptation for the purpose of coping but its not beneficial, and almost always self-destuctive, the same way alcohol takes the edge off of those pesky thoughts and pain, but leaves you with liver disease and your family with an alcoholic father.
Yes. Clearly i said everyone and automatically.
Good thing you make no moral judgements about other people.
Are you sure you are not the one who has taken the position of moral superiority?
Cause i could have sworn thats exactly what you did just now by denouncing me.
For everything else: Clearly me not handing you the bottle so you can drink yourself dead is an admission of lacking empathy and sympathy. How inhuman it is of me to point out that escapism is not healing.
There is something left to say about people who value virtue, kindness and empathy more than actually helping others and solving issues. You know. Suicidal empathy and such because being virtuous just feels so good.
Never confuse moralising and smug virtue-signalling with ‘kindness and empathy’. Wokies like PK are devoid of both. Wokies are ‘kind’ in the way that Puritans were ‘kind’ when they burned ‘witches’, or that anti-choicers are ‘kind’ when they pretend to care about embryos.
That is the nature of the times.
The majority want an easy way out of life circumstances without realizing, and choosing often times to be blind to, that the easiest way out is often times the hard path in front of them.
Relative to trauma, of the various sorts because there are many types and degrees, people either use it as a badge to give identity or refuse to face it altogether.
The first type uses the trauma as a mask for deeper trauma,
The second type fear the trama because they geniuinely repeated to themselves, for far to long, that they cannot face it.
Both sides are unhealthy extremes.
It is the nature of the times…always was so, but in the current age everything is amplified to unrealistic and delusional measures as people seek constant stimulation to avoid the quiet…because the quiet is a mirror that reveals.

If you are going to resort to relativism that is fine, but under a purely relativistic point of view switching genders permanently is not relativism, it is absolutism…
There is nothing relativistic about transgenderism as the ego becomes the absolute fixed point.
If a young boy or young girl is deeply wounded and transgenderism claims a cure by cutting off the remainder of the young boy or young girl…that is not curing, that is psychological murder or amputation.
