    Yes, my younger sibling who I really cared for as a child is fascist now.

    He keeps veering any conversation we have into, erm, topics of ethnicity.

    Also, the transphobia.

    He literally has done the Hitler salute because it pisses people off or because it’s “funny.”

    I don’t want to interact with him anymore.

    It’s usually just “good morning” here and there so he doesn’t suspect that I legit hate his guts now.

    But the truth is, I can’t wait to not see him ever again.

    (Also, no, he doesn’t know that I am a transfem lol)

      Ugh yikes. My eldest brother is part of the local AfD devision (our alt-right party here in germany), so i do somewhat get it actually. I am, again, more lucky, because i am by far the youngest in my family and everyone moved out before i was born.

      I truly wish you good luck. That is a rancid situation and it must be hard to steel yourself every day.

        Thank you.

        I do indeed steel myself every day.

        I have a mask and armor.

        I don’t know who I am beneath it all.

        I don’t know if I really know what person I am or who I am.

        I am ready to find out ig

        I am ready to move on.
