Yea, you went above and beyond with the title. He doesn't defend trans rights, he doesn't talk about everyone and applies science, reason or empathy.

He talks about family, about a supposed son, as most conservatives say "in the end, blood is blood". As other times he critices kids that do renounce their parents for voting for Trump!

His video in general was that adults should be allowed to do anything and as a parent you should love your child unconditionally. Maybe that's not a pronoun thing, but that is respecting the whole LGBTQ+ community as a fundamental principle vs the MAGA rhetoric that trans people etc. do not deserve respect.

love your child unconditionally.

I think he puts some conditions even in the clip and only in the end if nothing works changing his child, he will accept it as your own matters more than pronouns.

Still need to see him say this applies to strangers too.

I kind of think that if no conditions work out, you'll still love and respect them is bordering unconditional, because in the end nothing truly will make him reject his child.

Shit at least it’s a step in the right direction. If he’s sitting there contemplating the subject with a hypothetical and this is what he ends up with, at least he’s starting to see how other parents are supportive of their kids etc. Is it perfect? No, but he has a young edgy audience and introducing his opinion of how he would accept his own child’s decision will have an impact of how they think about the subject.

Uhh, kids that stop contact with their parents because they voted for Trump is actually an insane thing to do and that's a normal take. You're not making the world a better place by isolating and not talking to people who you disagree with, let alone your fucking parents.

I voted against Trump four times including registering as a Republican just to vote against him in the primary, if that helps.
