JK Rowling’s latest book is about a murderous cis man who dresses as a woman to kill his victims - Discuss all the JK Rowling tranny shit here

This is aspirational bullshit. In reality, we live in reality. Parents should raise their children to live in the world we actually live in.

If everyone just perpetuates the system mindlessly, never challenging it in any way, nothing will ever change. What you're advocating is the laziest form of social stagnation. You don't want to put forth the effort to teach your children to be open-minded, accepting and kind, because it's easier and so much less effort to just sit back and let the world teach them to hate what is different to them. So those who don't or can't conform to society's toxic, harmful standards just have to be tortured until they "get in line". That's not really my ideal.

You should do all that, but you should also tell them they can expect to get beaten the fucking hell out of for it. The world is not nice. At all. The world is mean and stupid. Children need to be told how to defend themselves, and choose whether to fight or conform. That's their choice. They should not ever be forced into idiotic revolutionarianism because their parents are fucking woke or some bullshit.
 
Oh no, none at all I'm afraid. In fact, I've never met a single gay person in my entire life. I'm talking completely out my ass, unlike the person claiming parents are deliberately training their kids to be gender non-conforming to get attention to.. weaponize their kids or something? And is now (apparently?) trying to claim that all lesbians are attention-seekers or something? I can tell you know what you're talking about.

(Shh, no one tell them I'm a dyke.)
Not exactly helping your argument IMO.

Bullying is inherent to human nature. And it contributes positively and negatively.
You'll never get rid of it no matter how much you try. Heartless as it sounds, a much saner approach is teaching people how to deal with.

A saner approach is to ban degeneracy or simply shove all troons into gas chambers and delouse them in bug spray.

Not everything that is different is good or acceptable. It's ok to judge things and find them terrible.
 
Honestly I'm more offended by the blatant plagiarism of ripping off a classic.

Thomas Harris doesn't deserve this kind of disrespect.
One of the reasons I think Buffalo Bill is so effective in SotL is that he's sort of an indirect foil for Lecter. Bill is the "realistic" killer: delusional, disorganized, self-absorbed, obsessed with autistic sexual fantasies. He seems to emanate a kind of disorderliness; his house is a dirty, jumbled mess that barely masks the mayhem going on in the basement. Then, Lecter is the idealized killer: despite being locked in a dungeon, he introduces orderliness and even decorum to his environment. He possesses a kind of dignity that survives the institution's attempts to dehumanize him, and he doesn't have icky kinks or foibles.

I think this is why the novels with Lecter running free just don't work. He's fascinating because he resists institutionalization, but when he's out in the world, he immediately devolves into self-parody, performing harpsichord sonatas and sautéing truffles and quoting sonnets and mastering quantum physics and other absurd feats. But I really think "Silence" is a marvelous piece of fiction.
