yknow what? i will publicly embarrass myself. let's talk about my stupidity.

a thread
okay, first: i used to be anti-lgbtqia+. like. REALLY anti-lgbtqia+. and if you truly believed in christianity you could be converted to being straight again. it's in this big thread from a year ago or so now, go read it, then come back to this thread https://twitter.com/Anxiety2_0/status/1252458521i041330176
alongside that, here's the screenshots that show i did in fact say this (unfortunately) https://twitter.com/Anxiety2_0/status/1252458549914959873?s=20
for the anti-lgbtqia+ statements, i made a long thread in response to that: https://twitter.com/JBMagination/status/1252716080331702272?s=20
when a friend sent me that thread showcasing my anti-lgbtqia+ statements, i knew i messed up. i reflected and realized that i literally had no reason to not accept them if i suddenly found out they were lgbtqia+. they are the exact same person. although, i was reluctant.
and so with that reluctance, my response thread was vague. so i want to share with you what i really meant in that thread.
FALSE. my opinions did not change. it was the start of forming my new, personal opinion though. im thankful for that. using depressed people was an example. https://twitter.com/JBMagination/status/1252716129883217923
MISLEADING. i was saying that lgbtqia+ deserve human rights. however, i explicitly did *not* say lgbtqia+ rights are human rights. https://twitter.com/JBMagination/status/1252716174254669824
MISLEADING. more of me trying to look good in the situation. https://twitter.com/JBMagination/status/1252716219121258496
by the way, i still dont have briclyn blocked. seriously, briclyn, if you want to talk about it still, i am 100% down. https://twitter.com/JBMagination/status/1252716269859557378?s=20
for contrast of me vs then, im now lgbtqia+ myself. i am transgender and i am asexual. proud of that, always will be.
secondly, i was very ALM. i made a thread talking about it and being very anti-BLM. i don't have screenshots, and i've since deleted the thread, you'll have to take my word for that one.
third, i was pro-life. well, really, pro-birth-- no matter what situation you're in the baby must be born, because you can't murder someone, and what about the rest of the family tree?

that's how i thought.
and there are probably other things.

i really do regret the old things i've said. i also want to apologize for those statements, because i never did, and i am disgusted by what i said and used to believe.
i wanna say this right now:

- i truly believe LGBTQIA+ RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS!!! i and so many others should have the right to *exist*!!
- black lives matter. 100%. all lives don't matter until black lives matter and they shouldnt have to be scared of being killed.
i'd say more, and look for other stupid things i've done but i'm in a rush so i can tweet this out without losing the thread for a third time.

thank you for reading. i hope i can grow and learn more in the future, even if it costs me a career and reputation to do so.
