I haven’t been on this account for so long and have basically abandoned it, but rereading my old book makes me disgusted with myself. I have said some hurtful and awful things that at the time I didn’t understand were hurtful. There is no excuse that I can make and I cannot apologize enough. As a person I have matured through the years and learned new things that have changed my viewpoint. Nobody deserves to be treated any differently because of their gender, sexuality or the way they look. I discover watt pad at too young of an age and decide to participate in the community because it seemed so caring. I participated in the toxic part of the community and fandoms I was in and for that I’m truly and deeply sorry. I know that I don’t deserve to be forgiven and I respect that but I can’t continue living until I know that I’ve at least apologized. There is not much I can do to support communities that I’ve effected seeing as I don’t have a job or car, but I have signed petitions and self educated. I have made friends in the LGBTQ+ community and have gone on my own journey of self discovery. It was not right of me to say those things and frankly now I feel like a broken record but I truly don’t know how I can atone for what I said. (I didn’t say anything racist I did however say some really transphobic and ignorant things while also just being blatantly rude to people with different opinions than me)
