1 in 250 is an incredibly generous estimation, like ingenuine. I don't think there's more than 1 million trans people in a single country alone. There seem to be way more homeless people than troons, and they number at 500,000 a night.This narrative that trans people are being slaughtered to extinction is exhausting. Do they recognize how ridiculous they sound when they mention that their is a “trans murder epidemic in America” and that this year was “the deadliest year for trans people” only to follow it up with mentioning that only 40 American trans people died in the past year? 40 people dying is still insignificant even when you consider the proportion of trans people that died. The most conservative estimates state that approximately 1 in every 250 Americans identify as trans. America has a population of 300 million citizens, meaning that approximately 1 million citizens identify as trans. This means that only 0.004% of trans were murdered this year. We don’t even know the exact breakdown of the people who died due to hate crimes, intimate partner violence, random act of violence, killed due to botched robbery, etc.
There is a list from Advocate containing all the 46 trans people that died this year and all are accompanied with descriptions containing information about the murders. Based on that list, it is a mixture of crimes- hate crimes (some are being investigated as potential hate crimes but a minimum number of two are most likely hate crimes), intimate partner violence/domestic violence (6 direct deaths from current or former romantic partners, 1 indirect death due to providing shelter to a friend who was trying to escape an abusive husband, 3 additional possible domestic deaths since one is a murder-suicide, which is usually intimate partner related, and another two were in sexual relationship with their killer, but those could still be hate crimes), confrontation of an active shooter (1 death), robbery (3 deaths), DUI manslaughter (1 death due to fleeing possible harassers, so maybe indirect death due to harassment/hate crime), and unknown motives. Without counting the three possible intimate violent cases and indirect death due to harassment, 11 of these deaths (about 1 in 4) have been confirmed to have nothing to due with hate crimes. In fact, many of deaths in the article were related to intimate partner violence in some way ( about 9, which is approximately 1 in 5). There is a section in the Advocate article that admitted that a significant number of deaths concerning trans people are due to interpersonal violence (intimate partner violence/domestic violence from a friend, family member, or acquaintance). I recall only two domestic violence death not commited by a romantic partner from the article - two trans siblings who were sadly murdered by their own mother; however, the rest were intimate partners.

Unless these murders were former, confirmed hate crimes that now identify as non-hate crime related homicides, I don’t know were this hate crime narrative ( “all transgender murders are hate crimes”) is coming from. This sounds like another case of subpar journalism and lack of confirming information since most news articles present all of these deaths as hate crimes when there is readily available information that contradicts that narrative. This is to be expected from the group of people who trooned Marsha P. Johnson, a self-admitted cross dresser, and claimed that he started the Stonewall riots (even though there are statements from him saying that he arrived after the riots started). So, accurate information shouldn’t be expected from troons.
Even taking those numbers in account, we get a total of 1,200,000 troons in the USA alone, seems incredibly inflated.
