Hating homophobes/transphobes irl is SO DIFFERENT because you know you should hate them, you have no trouble hating the same people online, but you know this person, you just talked about the math homework a minute ago, you know they’d hate you if they ever found out about you but yesterday they offered you tictacs and you had a laugh about a bird hitting the window, and you’re so fucking terrified because you don’t want to lose this, you don’t want to lose any of them but you know their opinion and you know you’ll never be yourself around them and it’s heartbreaking and terrifying
