I give you credit by at least commenting on such an obvious gotcha moment. Honestly though, unless you apologize for such a tone deaf tweet that was sent while you were an adult and not a teenager, you aren’t going to get a lot of love at the moment.
I have a gay teenager and it was much easier to come out as gay for him than say, a Trump fan, because of the community he lives in. Your tweet makes sense but it’s a lot like saying “it’s hard to be white in America today”. That may be true in some specific instances but without broader acknowledgment and nuance it sounds incredibly ignorant.
No one is condemning their children or stating they will burn in hell because of brexit and no one is going around beating brexit voters outside of brexit night clubs.
