this album has a feature that deadnames caitlyn jenner, an "artistic alter ego" is the same artist and what the songs platform is clear. its not parody, its not punching out equally, its hateful and intentionally ignorant for the sake of it. the album is obsessed with pronouns and trans people, not just the slim portions

Yeah, it felt like that to me, too, despite the context. Also it's painfully obvious insecurity was (again) a major player in authoring this project with the dated "cancel me!!!" theme throughout the album, this was what stood out the most for me. Didn't feel like having fun was a huge part of making this record.
