True friends are able to make fun of each other's political views without getting offended.

I completely agree. I'm very good friends with an open feminist even though i'm very openly an anti-feminist. I have some friends who are gay and trans, even though i'm cis and straight. I have good friends who are atheist and hindu, even though i'm a Christian, etc., etc.
We decided to put our friendship above any political or religious beliefs, because friendship is the best way to demonstrate love and tolerance.
It's just hard to grasp that some people don't consider this normal? Like, if you can't be tolerant to other people, you probably aren't going to have a lot of friends. Living in an echo chamber isn't healthy.

If you can't be friends with someone who may have opposing views- then maybe you're the problem.
(Not talking about you, just a general statement. )
Many of my friends are religious and we can comfortably talk about it. I've heard they agree with some of my views as well, although I'm sort of a Satanist. (I really enjoy the anti- self-deceit and counterproductive pride parts. )
I can also comfortably argue/debate these things with my friends.
If these things are such large parts of a persons life they should not need to hide it, simply to keep a friendship.
If ones friendship is torn apart just because you disagree about something- maybe said person wasn't fit to be your friend at all.
Still, if all your friends HAVE to agree with you- or you can't be friends with them--- kill yourself.
(Again, general statement.)

Not really lol, like how could I be friends with someone that was homophobic, transphobic and anti-feminism when those are key parts of my life?

that....
well, the only thing this is refering to in your comment would be "anti-feminism", and if you're so close-minded that you cannot accept someone opposing for equality but under a different or no label, then i really feel sorry for you.
i just as well feel sorry for you if you consider a blatant hatemovement as one of the keys to your life.

There is a difference between not being a feminist, and being anti-feminist. Β I'm not an egalitarian because I disagree with the majority of them. Β They take issues like black lives matter and say all lives matter, ignoring the fact that the movement was created because people didn't care about black deaths in the first place. Β Not all of them do, only some- which is why I'm not anti-egalitarian.
I'm a feminist that strives intersectionality, and I advocate for disabled people, people of color, etc etc- I just put women first because they need it more. Β That doesn't mean I ignore other issues- hell, I'm a man. Β I just understand who needs more help right now.
If you call advocating for disabled women, women of color, trans women, poor women and the rest of them a hate movement, I'm sad to say you're the only hateful one here.

Um...if you are putting women before any of these other groups, by definition that's not really an intersectional belief...because you yourself are admitting that you put more emphasis on women as a whole. I'm not saying this to be a jerk or anything but I just thought it was kind of odd how you put it.
To be honest...trans men and trans women have it the worst out of the genders right now, not ciswomen. Some people still don't even believe in the existence of trans and I would say on a worldwide scale you're more likely to be killed/raped/etc as a transperson than as a woman, and you're also less likely to have equal rights. Even men are more likely to be victimised violently than women on a numbers by numbers basis.

Nooo, I mean the women of these groups SPECIFICALLY, not just white, cis women. Β This is including trans women. Β I know trans people need more help than cis people, and I advocate for them more than I do cis women. Β I know women of color need more help than white women, disabled women more than able women, etc. Β I advocate for all women, not in any PARTICULAR order, but I make sure I include all women.
