yea man. And im not even taking a side on if its right or wrong.
Only point is we spending mad energy arguing for or against what around 200-300 people might do
All the while the Supreme Court removed almost all Climate Change regulations when its 68 degrees in Jersey in August and 150 degrees in Asia and that shit impacting millions and soon to be billions.
Surely you can see how disingenuous that comes across as i.e., stop worrying about this thing, look over there at that other thing. People can, and do, have the bandwidth for multiple worries. Even for the bigot MAGA folk who just want trans people to not exist, they are worrying about this and Hunter Biden's dick pics.
I've always maintained that there is definitely a percentage of people who are driven by bigotry but there are also those who don't give a single fuck about what a person chooses to do within themselves but feel they are now being asked to be active participants in something they don't even believe is real. A mother being told her daughter has to share a changing room with a biological boy because of that boy's FEELINGS is tough pill to swallow for some.
No one has a right to affirmation. You shouldn't get to choose your privileges based on vibes.
And the argument that it isn't widespread is accurate, I actually do agree it's being used as a rallying cry in complete bad faith; however, the incidents of gender dysphoria and reassignment surgery are on the rise. There is a worry that adults will be pushing on to children transgender ideology when they are probably just gay. There have been plenty of people who have transitioned back who have come out and spoke about the predatory nature of their "support" but no one listens to them except for those who are motivated by hate. This leads to the only platforms they have being right wing people who are just using them for propaganda purposes.
