Uhh, any advice is appreciated, I'm kinda panicking... (TW: potential homophobic violence)

Uhh, any advice is appreciated, I'm kinda panicking... (TW: potential homophobic violence) | Help! An old friend just texted me whom I ghosted two years ago. He asked me what's going on in my life. Last time I met him he was very homophobic and misogynistic (I'm a trans lesbian, that's not good for me!), and I was glad to have him out of my life. He said things like "Men are just the superior species to women" or that he would punch me if I were parading around a pride flag. I've ghosted multiple people from the past 'cause I didn't know how else to cut them, but now this is apparently something that can haunt me? What can I do? I don't know if not texting back is an option, but I'm kinda scared for my safety and definitely uncomfortable no matter what. Any advice???

Now if I were in your shoes I would maybe try to have the shortest conversation ever with mentioning barely anything. Making it extra awkward is bonus points

just mention things that don't have to do with you being trans and whatnot and he'll assume your just the same as when you last saw each other

DONT take my word for it tho sometimes I give awful advice

The best, and only right thing that helps is: Blocking, reporting, and perhaps talking about it with someone you trust.

I blocked him, but apparently he can see it (even though WhatsApp said he can't), and now his brother texted me... I don't know what to do, 'cause the question itself was simply how I'm doing, but I'm still panicking...

I should probably add that he doesn't know I'm trans, since I left him a few months before my egg crack. He was kind of a bully all the time, making jokes at other people's (often my) expense. He was bad at sarcasm, but he used it, so I never knew if he was for real or not. I really don't know what to do. I don't know what would happen if I ignored him. If I reply, I might HAVE to come out, but no matter what, I'm scared of violent outbreaks or so like that when he finds out I'm trans, but also if I reject him because guys really don't seem to be able to deal with that.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?????

I suggest you should call him out on his behavior and block him.
