You aren’t the asshole at all and thank you for standing up for women and lgbtq+ people!
It’s hard to call siblings out on things. I had to do this afew years ago with my older brother. He said sexist and transphobic things and doubled down after with no apology. He’s also said homophobic things. I’m(30s, woman) gay and we have trans younger brother!
We haven’t hung out since and don’t talk at family gatherings. He acts like a victim and says we abandoned him and our parents coddle him still.
We are older (30s-40s) so not being in contact is easier than you being a teenager.
I wish you good luck with communication and hope your family comes around.
Thanks again and not an asshole!
