Nationalism and racism are also common among Russians. Russians are a good people with a rich culture, but unfortunately, there are many ultra-right nationalists and aggressive people in them. I'm sorry to say this and I don't know how to justify itto still oppress trans and gay people. What's the point?
People think trans people are people with mental illness. It is difficult for an ordinary cisgender to understand how a person can change sex if he is not crazy. I couldn't understand it either, but I read about gender dysphoria and began to understand what's what. But not everyone is enlightened. I try to think of the best people, not the worst. Otherwise misanthropy is killing me
