It's amazing the lack of awareness in comparing two wildly different things.

Honestly I don't find it all that amazing. I think all trans are mentally ill. Just because a bunch of woke psychologists took gender dysphoria out of the DSM V doesn't make it any less of a disorder. To be clear, I think they deserve respect and support as long as they don't harm others. I'm also aware that homosexuality was once classified as a mental illness. I would argue that there is a big difference between thinking you are the opposite sex and being attracted to the same sex. The classification for a mental illness is when your behavior/thoughts impede your life. Homosexuality doesn't do that (unless it's by outside forces) whereas people who genuinely suffer from gender dysphoria have described the condition as debilitating.

His comments make it clear that he is a cis "gay" man though. Unfortunately way too many LGB people are also sharing the TQ+ narrative.
