Thank you for dialing the temp of the conversation down. This post sounds more like a "you'll own nothing and you'll be happy" kind of post though...not sure if you meant it in a Klaus Schwab sort of way. Agreed Jimmy's friend will never be free of the consequences of his actions...but that's part of the sadness of it all that I've been trying to make here. If you listen to the de-transitioners...this guy has a lifetime of hell facing him...even if he does try to turn back to his biological sex at some point. Those hormones and the damage they do are forever. My hope would be that if a friend of yours was so mentally unstable/demonized or whatever you want to call it that they are dooming themselves to a life of hell chemically you would not throw them to the curb and not look back or think twice about them. Do you know Jimmy hasn't had discussions with his friend? Do you know for a fact that he supports his friend's decision because he's totally fine with transgenderism? Or has he tried to talk his friend out of it and failed? It's not like Jimmy auditioned people for his videos and chose the friend so the show could be seen as "woke". No.......this guy had been on Jimmy's team for years and was a childhood friend...and started to transition after being on the team for years. Would it look better for Jimmy's "brand" if he publicly humiliated his friend, turned his back on him, and showed hatred toward him? Just how would that look for a Christian conservative white male's brand? For many, it would be un-Christlike. Jesus dined with sinners and sought them out-not to condone the sin, but to soften their hearts and open their eyes with compassion, not condemnation. It's kindness that leads us to repentance. I'm sorry you feel like you're a slave. The truth sets us free, and we are to no longer be slaves to sin, fear, our jobs or anything else except the Lord. I totally agree with your last statement...thanks for posting such a powerful set of words!
