My point is, transgenders are not oppressed, nobody is going out of their way to make their lives harder. People just don't agree with the social agendas being pushed forth, and since the left isn't able to argue the merits of their agendas, they characterize their detractors as hateful because that's easier. Nobody was wasting time thinking of transgenders until transgenders until they tried to reconstruct society to benefit them and support their ideology.
The Anti-Defamation League says the gesture that traditionally signals "all is well" has been hijacked by the white power movement and is routinely used in racist memes and other online content.
Popular meme Pepe the Frog has been added to the Anti-Defamation League's database of hate symbols alongside the Swastika, since it was taken up by "racists and haters".
Also, how could I forget, the trans community threw a temper tantrum over the new Harry Potter game because J.K. Rowling doesn't think that men can be women, and thinks the trans agenda is harmful to women.
I never once thought about transgenders until maybe about 5 years ago. I never thought of "transgenders" as a political issue until
Until right-wing media/politicians made it a fetish object and covered it obsessively, knowing that people like you would fall for it? Yeah, we know.
Children are not being encouraged to get gender reassignment surgeries. That's just a preposterous, fake news talking point. I guarantee that you don't know a single person who has encountered this. There were just 1,400 kids between ages 6-17 NATIONWIDE who received puberty blocking medication in 2021. There were 56 kids ages 13-17 who had genital surgeries from 2019 to 2021. This is a cause for national concern?
(Speaking of genital mutilation, why don't conservatives have anything to say about male circumcision? I didn't send my son to get his penis skin ripped off straight out of the womb. Why did so many of you?)
About 42,000 U.S. children ages 6 to 17 were diagnosed with gender dysphoria in 2021, nearly triple the number in 2017, a unique data analysis for Reuters found.
The idea that drag shows are taking place at elementary schools is also simply not happening. If parents want to take their kids to see a man wearing a dress outside of school, that's their choice. Again, I don't know anyone who does this and I am sure you don't either. But conservatives act like it's everywhere. Much more common is parents who leave their kids alone with an ipad/computer with internet access, which has almost certainly exposed them to much more scandalous material than any drag show.
The only trans panic issue that has any kind of merit is fairness in athletic competition, which frankly should not be in any rational person's top 100 most pressing political topics. But conservative media outlets run 10 stories a day about it because they know it will get people like you all riled up. Who has the agenda?

It's amazing that someone could post this and think they're making strong points. You're attempting to gaslight and downplay the issues as something created by the conservatives when it is liberals who are fighting for these issues. If this is such a non-issue, then why are so many liberals upset that states want to prohibit underage gender reassignment and the teaching of Gender Theory in schools? If these laws won't affect anyone because these things aren't happening, then why be upset? Also, the rapid rise of Gender Dysphoria - and the number of kids seeking "gender reaffirming care" - as a social contagion among youths is something that happened in the last 5 years. YOU might not think it's a big deal but that doesn't mean everyone has to agree with you. The number of transgender people being murdered or assaulted is also extremely low, yet many on the left believe that it's a national issue that everybody should care about.
Also, there absolutely have been drag shows at schools of all grades, which is why parents have come out against it. These accusations are not just coming out of nowhere, despite your attempts to deny and gaslight.
A controversial performance in East Harlem was meant to be a talent show for grade school students, but what was on display has angered parents. CBS2's Vanes...
A Pleasant Grove High School drag performance on campus has stirred emotion and divided parents over this question: should drag shows be allowed in schools?
After a month-long investigation, the Hempfield School District released its findings into the controversial drag show that occurred on April 25.The district...

Red states are trying to prevent gender reassignment surgery wholesale, not just for kids. They are also attempting to prevent any conversation whatsoever pertaining to the existence of trans or gay people in schools.
In the rare instances that gender reassignment surgery for minors does occur, it is the treatment prescribed by medical professionals as the best option for the patient's health. The conservative narrative is that little kids across the country are walking into clinics without a parent, having a brief conversation with a purple-haired doctor with an agenda, and then immediately going under the knife. That's not how it works. These are private, difficult medical decisions parents are making that conservatives have absolutely no business meddling in. (I noticed you declined to address the fact that millions of parents across the United State mutilate the genitals of their male babies. No issue with that?)
Your proof that drag shows are routinely occurring at elementary schools consists of three instances spanning 6 years, two of which were at high schools. The one example of a drag show where elementary schoolers were in attendance was from 2017 at an afterschool talent show. The guy who performed it was removed from his post and he also wasn't trans. But do go on about how I'm the one who's gaslighting.
When I was in high school, there was a teacher dance every year at the student pep assembly. Some of the gym teachers (who were undoubtedly conservative Republicans, given where I grew up) wore dresses and wigs during it. It wasn't overtly sexual or scandalous; it was just a joke and no one cared, let alone call the authorities or accuse the teachers of being pedos.

Conservatives are more scared of drag queens and trans people when they really should be more concerned with the much higher likelihood of shooting themselves with their guns.

The more simple explanation is that both actions - while humiliating them beyond what was thought imaginable by even the most crazed humiliation porn fetishists - are perceived to own the libs by right wingers. No more explanation is needed beyond this point as to why right wingers behave in the comical way they do
I do not drink it, but for a different reason. Before joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I did not drink to keep my health, fitness and mental sharpness at the highest possible level. After joining the Church, I got a stronger reason on top of everything else - my covenant with God.
