And probably not looking like the gender they think they should be. It is not just about looks either. If in their mind others are not accepting of them it doesn't help. Likely other factors too.

would not be an issue. Their Bible says "love thy neighbor as thyself" - As I recall, there were no caveats to that commandment.

People are always looking for someone to hate, bully, and scapegoat.

Humans.

I learned to value and love myself. Fuck everyone who wants me dead or to kill myself. I was almost driven to do it. But I'd rather live and piss them off existing than die and give them the satisfaction.

They live for death.

They vibrate with hate.

It is what animates them.

It is what gives them purpose.
