so I see this post on whisper in the LGBTQ+ group, from someone listed at age 15-17, saying that their legal guardians are trying to send them away to conversion camp
like, the literal message was; "My legal guardians are trying to send me away to conversion camp. I really don't want to go, but they think it is best.
"
the most recent reply, on this fucking hell app?
"Maybe you should go... if worrying about your sexual orientation is more important than your basic education, you clearly have some priority issues.
"
I wanna fucking shoot this person in the face, what the FUCK is wrong with them??????
how ... can they assume that studies aren't the priority? so people exploring their sexuality can't be good students? And the only reason the parents would send them anywhere is bc their grades dropped??
idek, but I am so angry on this poor child's behalf
I left them a reply telling them to ignore the idiot and telling them to try and find a trusted adult for help
and thankfully someone else pointed out that in OP's state, conversion therapy is illegal for minors, and recommended the same
I uh. may have also replied to the idiot calling them out and asking what the fuck was wrong with them
is this someone else from within the lgbt community shitting on a young lgbt teen for not being "woke" enough, is my question. because I've seen a lot of that, sadly
like 'um sweetie if you don't already know better maybe you SHOULD, just to see what happens'
....... that's even more disgusting, omg
like a confused scared fucking teenager is going to have all this shit figured out from the start
"if you're more scared of FUCKING TORTURE than your grades going down, you need your priorities straightened out"
I just. how can people be so disgusting and merciless, especially towards a child
someone who is the exact right age for worrying about their sexual orientation
like. those are the years when you start to feel shit and experiences it all
