when half the response to the album is people saying the transphobia is a w for him, i think you might be missing something.
queer does mean odd, not confused. it is a reclaimed term used to describe lgbt+ people as a catchall.

this album has a feature that deadnames caitlyn jenner, an "artistic alter ego" is the same artist and what the songs platform is clear. its not parody, its not punching out equally, its hateful and intentionally ignorant for the sake of it. the album is obsessed with pronouns and trans people, not just the slim portions

given what hes said for years about caitlyn jenner and pronouns, and the shit he says on antichrist im not gonna pretend this shit isnt just transphobic. these statements dont stop at a sexual preference. he is too uncomfortable about having preferred pronouns to wrap his head around it, and thinks queer people are the ones who are confused. the whole album makes fun of little people, mentally and physically handicapped people, and genuinely half the songs mention trans people. Rent free. Most milk toast right wing opinion, this isnt brave art, hes just a shitty dude.
youre right. its easy for me to forget that aspect because I have alot of practice in not gendering people to others when I know theyre still in the closet, but physical safety comes first.
i recommend practicing pronouns and terms of relation, thats the biggest thing from my perspective. just listen to what they tell you and believe it.
coming out to people is hard, but in my experience the sooner you feel comfortable telling people close to you the easier it is to start telling anyone. not recommending you encourage coming out, but being there to provide positivity and validation about their feelings is huge.
radical red is pretty choice, as well as any drayano hack. there are text and guage animation speedup codes available for gen 4 games to help mitigate the slowness.
i know i can just go look it up but I feel slightly wronged by the crop here.
