I'm sorry but do abusive parents just *not* exist in these people's heads? Cause if you are totally unable to comprehend the idea of an LGBTQ+ person hiding themselves and interests from their parents then you officially need to stop talking about LGBTQ+ issues.

No, they don't Lily Maynard's entire thesis is just "I am a cool and chill person who is not a mean bigot and therefore all parents of my age are as well" She thinks this is a clever winning argument

I cannot express how fucking embarrassing it is for her to be making the crusty old Republican "I don't have a bigoted bone in my body" argument and to offer up as evidence the bands she used to listen to

TERFs don't just have conservative beliefs, they *are fundamentally conservative* on a cultural and ideological level and they're just in denial about it Maynard's rhetoric here is pure Nixonism, appeal to the common sense of everyday Joe-Six Pack Middle America, just transposed

You make Joe Six-Pack a lady and you put her in Birmingham and not Peoria and you put all the flourishes in to make her sound like a cooler and better person than one of those horrible MAGA red hats over in the States But it's the same damn thing

You draw a picture of a fundamentally *decent* and *normal* person - she's no Christian zealot, she even had her own rebellious phase when she listened to Blur and dyed her hair and whatnot, but then she had to work for a living She's creative but practical, salt of the earth

You do all this fucking wordsmithing to paint this vivid picture of this very specific person Then you claim that everyone who agrees with you is that person And everyone who disagrees with you is this carnival of grotesques opposed to her

It's a style of politics completely empty of any actual facts or reasoning And its emotional tenor is completely designed to comfort the comfortable and afflict the afflicted, to strengthen the thoughtless confidence of people who believe they are right because they are *normal*
