We have the right to call it quits on relationships that harm us, even if it's parents. We are under no obligation to maintain relationships with those who hurt us and then gaslight us when we share the facts and truth with them about how they force us to suffer.

Oh I totally agree. It's just difficult, because aside from the feelings of sadness and abandonment, in my case there's the added complication that my ex and toddler son live with her, which has gatekept my ability to have a relationship with him. We're in different countries, and being trans causes legal issues, so there's nothing much I can do but accept that the loss of my mom really means the loss of my whole family, present and future. But that's what fascism can do, it destroys families and friendships.
