You know trans people are the T in LGBTQ (so saying both in the same statement is redundant)?
Anyway I have a feeling that humans in general are a disappointment in part because we *are* so closely related to chimpanzees (which are renowned for their violence, after all). (I admire ants, because they do so many of the things we take credit for – wood ants even make their own antibiotic by combining their formic acid with tree resin – but better in many ways…)
Sometimes rehabilitation is possible, but only via creative methods most people wouldn't think of – I've recently looked into cults (reading two of Steven Hassan's books), and I suspect this girl I've mentioned before may be trapped in a personality cult (at the very least, it makes some sense of her previously-baffling actions). Even more interesting is that cult members can be misdiagnosed with various psychiatric disorders… I don't currently know anybody in a position to apply Hassan's techniques (the Strategic Interactive Approach and so on) there, but I'll keep thinking. Not that cult LEADERS deserve much sympathy…

Other than that, I agree with most of the rest.
Thanks!
Just FYI: I'm not a cult leader; I'm a niche internet microcelebrity
If I was a cult leader, I'd be getting a lot more sex than I currently am, LOL
