You put words in my mouth. Not once did I say she was a coward. Not once did I say she was not allowed to feel hurt or scared. You speak to me about reading comprehension yet skew my words to hear only chaste.
I do get to look down on those with power that flee while those without power must stay and fight.
Your Anne Frank comment is just wrong. She's not Anne Frank the rest of us in the trans community that can't leave are. She's the rich daughter of a Nazi that got to escape.
You're right that you never said she was a coward so apologies there, let me rephrase, it's unfair for anyone expecting her to stand up.
Either way, we are at an impasse with our opinion on her actions so I'll just leave it at that and wish you a good day, good luck, and fuck those who seek to eradicate because of their bigotry.
