Let's establish some stuff about the relationship between troons the rest of the LGB. Troons picked the perfect people to latch onto and manipulate-- not only does gay culture have a lot of "gender-bending" elements like drag, gay people are also sympathetic to the "I have to hide who I really am!" line. It was really easy for troons to ride in on the coattails of drag-queens and cross-dressers before those things were acknowledged as separate entities from transgenderism. A lot of old-timer troons also just started out as drag queens and cross-dressers.
Up until the mid 2000s, most troons were HSTS, and there were a lot fewer of them. Social justice rhetoric goes in and out of fashion, and increases in it typically follow nationwide crises. In the 1960s it was the Vietnam War, and in the late 2000s it was the housing crisis/recession. Around 2009, social justice began to pick up steam in the mainstream again. A couple years later, the ideology became more extreme and more prevalent, to the point where white, cis/straight, male participants were feeling disenfranchised. These people had also drank the Kool-aid to the point where they were over-analyzing their own behavior in the same way someone misdiagnoses themself with an extreme condition after looking at WebMD. Basically, white straight guys were going from "Trans women are queens and must be protected!1!!" to "White men like me are responsible for all the world's problems," to "I wish I wasn't a white straight shitlord male," to "I spend several hours a day wanking to lesbian porn, so maybe I'm actually a woman deep inside!!1!" to "I'm a true and honest super-oppressed trans woman, and my voice matters more than anyone else's!" The same progression of events also happened with straight white girls who looked at too much yaoi.
Suddenly you see this huge spike in people identifying as trans, not as a result of the gay community, but as a result of the oppression arms-race going on in the far left and of porn over-saturation. The LGBT community is what caused HSTS to exist, but the glut of free online porn and the oppression olympics is what caused the cringiest, annoyingest troons-- AGPs-- to pour in. Most gay people don't want this, but they're too polite/sympathetic to say anything.
Here's how I
know gay people don't want this: have you ever seen a fakeboi try to use Grindr? They get
no dates-- only the occasional "you're so brave!1!!" in their DMs. There are news stories about FtMs getting kicked out of gay bathhouses. The
majority of TERFs (and I mean actual ones that identify also with the RF part) are lesbian and bisexual women. The proof is also in the pudding with the married/taken troons you see here. Almost all of them are dating other troons, and the few ones seeing actual women are just leeching off of a straight women they were married to before they transitioned. Gay men don't fuck fakebois, and lesbians don't fuck troons. If a "cis" person dating a troon claims to be eitehr of those things, they're either a bisexual chaser or a virtue-signalling liar.
Gay people do not deserve to be punished for the degeneracy of troons. Troons are literally a bunch of masquerading straight people who hijacked their movement. The gay people that don't speak out against it are either afraid of the TRA lynch mob, or well-meaning but ignorant about the true extent of how fucked up troons are. Two middle-aged, normie gay dudes from Boise Idaho shouldn't be barred from getting married or having children just because some AGP troon a thousand miles away is posting pictures of themself jerking off in diapers on Twitter.
In any case, this thread isn't about gay people. If you want to bitch about gay people or blame all the world's problems on them, take it somewhere else. If you won't take my word for it,
take Null's.
