It seems the existence of Trans people make normies upset. But, even worse Trans/Non-Binary et al makes conservatives murderous. To put it very succinctly, Trans Rights are Human Rights.
It's very odd the TERF and Anti-Trans confederations which have emerged. It's also very distressing to read anyone who claims to be Liberal or Progressive echo and regurgitate Reactionary Anti-Trans Nonsense. Especially, about how powerful the "Trans Community" is, as though there is a League of Injustice of LGBTQ persons sitting around a table canceling and destroying those poor rightwing millionaires and billionaires.
Worse, still there is a coordinated rightwing campaign to cast every LGBTQ person as a sexual predators that these accusations are done by actual sexual predators like the incarcerated Andrew Tate or Republicans like Matt Schlapp or any number of prominent and local Republicans committees sex crimes is just in keeping with the Rightwing propaganda campaign of accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.
But, what isn't debatable is that Tucker Carlson, Jordan Peterson, Matt Walsh, Joe Rogan, Chaya Raichik, and Joanne "J.K." Rowling have cast themselves as the powerless victims of the all-powerful Trans Reich. Yet, despite being a powerless victim like Billionaire J.K. Rowling are fighting back!
This is one of the components of Umberto Eco's classic 14 points of Ur-Facism (1995);
The followers must feel humiliated by the force of their enemies. However, the followers must be convinced that they can overwhelm the enemies. Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak.
Trans people are a massively powerful group of bullies and sex monsters who force regular society to bow down and kidnap children for indoctrination into GAY WOKENESS while at the same time regular good ole REAL Americans can easily overcome this if they just listen to and absorb the powerful teaching of Libs of TikTok... Trans people are thus too strong yet too weak. They can be overcome but only if you constantly threaten to bomb Hospitals and kill any Doctor you suspect of performing these "Child Mutilations".
In reality, Trans individuals suffer horrendous bullying, are at great risk for suicide, and face an entire political ideology wedded to the idea that Trans people should not exist and any who do exist should be rounded-up and locked away from society as being mentally ill. Facing rising bureaucratic violence and the prospect of explicit State Sponsored violence, Trans individuals already experience violence from bigots who seek them out,
Unique Banks, a 21-year-old Latinx transgender woman, was fatally shot during a home invasion in Chicago Monday. Banks’s mother, Alexsandra Olmo, was also killed in the invasion of the family’s apartment, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Three other people — Olmo’s boyfriend and two trans women — were seriously wounded. Banks’s father, Omar Burgos, said many questions remain. “Nobody just goes to your house and just starts killing people,”
It's essential to the rightwing campaign of hatred and bigotry that conservatives can claim to be oppressed when they are shooting up LGBTQ nightclubs, Nonconformist people are being murdered, and Republicans State controlled legislature are passing laws to literally outlaw Trans and Non-binary persons.
As John Amos said in Coming to America (1988), "This is America, jack!" And in America, People have the absolute right to self-determination, self-identification, and Freedom of Association. Unfortunately, the Reactionaries who aggressively proclaim they will not call a person by their preferred pronouns are loudly identifying with their ideological forefathers who declared, for instance, there is no one named 'Muhammed Ali' only a militant black law breaker named Cassius Clay who had better do as they say or they will teach that "boy" a lesson by stripping him of his Heavyweight Title and ban him from professional boxing.
There is no difference. Beyond the right of people to self-determination; it's a matter of common courtesy. I've asked people if it would be alright for me to call them dickhead instead of their name or Child Diddler instead of Sir and for someone reason those people don't like being called those names and demand being referred to be their honorific or last name. Funny... When I point out that huh they don't like me mislabeling them it's never met by recognition or self-reflection but, by veiled anger or insults.
Instead what Reactionary's argue is they have the Fundamental Right to label people and classify people and place people into categories that they see fit. You are what they say you are and if you disagree well, they have the Church and State to deem you a troublemaker and that's when Rightwingers argue for prison and death camps.
And don't pshaw this off as hyperbole, because Chaya Raichik demonstrates Republicans and Rightwingers are comfortable and getting more confident in using eliminationist rhetoric and demonizing LGBTQ as the criminal other whom they will have no problem sending to camps when they establish the NeoConfederate Theocratic Slave Nation.
