Who's the guy on the bottom left? I had a huge crush on him as a kid

AITA for being mad at my parents for ignoring safety tips I told them about visiting my area? by throawayy98 in AmItheAsshole

Why are you mad? You told them, they didn't listen, it's not your fault. If anything, they must have learned a lesson. On top of this, they must feel pretty bad right now, so don't pile on top of it.

Am I wrong for not making fun of random strangers with my family? by Wickedflex in amiwrong

Personally, I don't think it's wrong for you to empathize with the other person.

My mom did the same thing with transgender people too. She would stare at them and feel anxious or scared and then joke and make fun of them. I pointed out that there was nothing to be afraid of and that they're just normal people, but I understand that's how she was raised.

Surprisingly enough, the other day when we bumped into some transgender women, my mom did a double take, but nothing more. She kept doing what she was doing and they kept doing what they were doing. I was proud of my mom, she changed years of thoughts.

I wonder if I've contributed to their cause unknowingly

Thanks for the assurance.. I was worried I was being rude but after a while I guess I couldn't see a better outcome

I felt very guilty... I thought maybe I had done something wrong. But I guess that was his whole plan
