Oh for fuck's sake. Everybody needs to calm down. Why is everyone starting using a magnifying glass to find any comment by a celebrity that doesn't 100% align with their own beliefs.

It seems like the word transphobe is slapped onto anyone and anything that offers a dissenting opinion or doesn't align completely with this week's LGBTQ newsletter.

I support LGBTQ rights. But I don't agree with everything. This "you're either with us or against us" rhetoric is basically the same as the republicans use.
