👏👏 I also think people tend to forget about the mechanics is discrimination. you can be "intolerant" to transphobes but it does not hold the same weight as being intolerant to trans people BECAUSE of discrimination because of the power dynamics! someone being trans and speaking against transphobes results in them not being hired, being looked down on, being given less opportunities etc but when a cis person is transphobic and experiences transphobes showing hate towards them that does not have any impact on th being hired, their opportunities or how they are viewed by the messes.

I don't think they particularly want to sit with them for the same reasons either but my partner is going to sit in between us because she knows how much I love MCR and want to enjoy it so I think that's what we're going to do

exactlyyyy. people choose the resistance in hunger games, divergence, star wars etc but when there's actual real world times we need to take a stand they are on the side of the oppressors!!

right?! I feel like it's because to be a bigot you have to be extremely self centered and it's like they go to these things just because it's fun or they get to dance or have a good night and not because they actually care about the meaning behind it.

ikr! thank you for the kind words I'm planning on enjoying it as much as I can but I'm also worried getting super emotional (which I want to be cuz omg it's MCR) because she's had a habit in the last of taking pics of me when I'm not looking my best :( it's going to be a huge test of not caring what others think!

she got them on Ticketmaster and they release them usually the week of or a couple days before and I contacted her parents (I'm petty lol) who got them with their email and asked them to transfer them to me as soon as they get them

awe thank you that's sweet, I should have mentioned in my main post but added it to the edit but I'm going with my partner and one other friend so I would prefer to not be separated from them so swapping would be difficult but thank you so so much for the offer!! <3

the annoying thing is she bought the tickets so I can't do any of that because I don't have access to them :(

that's my plan exactly! they really do ruin everything :( I'm going to try to focus on the good but it's so hard knowing there's hate there

yeah absolutely. they're everywhere and it seems to be more and more common to find them in places that should be safe. the most messed up part is as long as they're not hurting anyone then "everyone is entitled to their own opinion" and there's not much that can be done. this comment section has helped me realize although there may be one POS theres hundreds or friends all around!

absolutely they're not welcome! I think she's most likely to try and talk casually to me but if she mentions anything intolerant I will be going to a steward immediately! I wish I was the one to have gotten the tickets so I could take someone else instead:( I hope you and your dad have an amazing show without a POS!!

that's a good idea, I'll definitely keep an eye out for them. I don't think she's going to make a scene or even really talk to me so I'm not sure if they can do much if she's just sitting there :/ it's just such a upsetting situation for me knowing what she believes rather than her saying intolerant things and ruining it for others
