The mocking of Carol based on her age was a separate example of the double standards and hypocrisy of that group. I didn't mean to imply it was the same thing as the happy exclusion of others from their ingroup.
You’re comparing things that aren’t equal. A Christian group banning trans people is exclusion based on identity. LGBTQ people forming a bond in a shared space is inclusion within a marginalised identity. One restricts access, the other builds safety.

As for Carol, mocking age is wrong. But calling an oppressed group hypocritical for finding comfort together misses the bigger picture. Power isn’t equal here, no matter how much you want to pretend it is.

Hadn't thought of you in a long time
But you keep sending me funny valentines
And I know you think it comes off vicious
But it's precious, adorable
Like a toy chihuahua barking at me from a tiny purse
That's how much it hurts
How many times has your boyfriend said
"Why are we always talking 'bout her?"
