Or, alternatively, what did you do to another person which got you blacklisted from their life?

    Surely you must see that each case is nuanced and having a blanket statement for everyone is just naive? Saying “you must work hard at your family relationships simply because they are family” is just as generalized as “you have the agency to block out family members when they wrong you.”

    The world is shades of grey and having a staunch, polarized opinion is limiting oneself.

      I am well aware of that.

      But I’m also aware of the fact that everyone has enough time to present their story in the Internet with all the nuances included. Nobody in the Internet is obliged to be a telepath - the correct framing of the story is its author’s responsibility. If they choose to be scornful towards their own family with “they didn’t accept my pronouns” as the only argument, then they deserve as much scorn too.
