I mean, I had a similar experience (gay, autistic) growing up with an extremely liberal mother who tried raising me in a metaphorical bubble so I wouldn’t get bullied. Went so far to even remove me from public school when I came out because for some reason she thought I wouldn’t be able to handle being around “normal” kids. Unless it was like part of the GSA, she wouldn’t allow me to participate in activities because she thought I wouldn’t be able to socialize with someone who was straight.

This mentality was so damaging to me as a teenager I feel like any growth I could have had as a person was stunted. I would say it’s like at least 75% why I’m conservative now. She cried the first time I went to a country concert because she thought I would literally be shot by a redneck for being “different.” Meanwhile, it’s only my liberal friends who have comments to make about my sexuality. I have like a physical reaction now to anyone who buys into identity politics. It can be so so harmful. 

I know this is only my experience, but I’m so passionate about letting people just be who they are without having any labels attached. Even if you have good intentions you may not understand the harm you’re doing.

I get that- I'm in many ways a radical leftist, futurist transhumanist to be exact. 

Despite the fact that I'm an asexual weirdo who believes we'll one day become genetically engineered cyborg people and enjoy it, I tend to vibe better with conservative people. Most of my conservative friends like to do things like hitting the gym, grilling, and generally enjoying life. 

It feels like my leftist friends insist on being neo-Puritan buzzkills who endlessly discuss inane topics such as-

"Is the phrase "big dick energy" transphobic?"

The "apes together strong" meme is racist"

"Action movies are just imperialist propaganda"

"Are all beauty standards just white supremacy?"

"It's ableist to not want a severely disabled child"

And I'm over here like......have any of you actually gone out and interacted with humans? Like, just do it. Don't try to examine it or view it through any kind of pretentious pseudo-academic lens.
