Hey so unpopular opinion
trans people are allowed to be upset and annoyed if you misgender us
disabled people are allowed to be angry and frustrated at casual ableism
mentally ill people are allowed to be pissed when people are ableist in that manner.
poc are allowed to be angry when they experience racism.
marginalized groups don’t need to sit down and “understand how hard it is” to not be bigoted, casually or not. Stop that nonsense.
We get that it’s hard. We get that you’ll forget sometimes.
But like, it still happens and we’re allowed to be annoyed and irritated. Apologizing is good, even if it was an accident.
