Literally hijacking everything worthwhile that the civil-rights movement brought our society, as the "trans movement" has, is a slap in the face of genuine civil-rights victims, and a mockery of the legislation designed to help them. As you correctly note, behaviors and lifestyle-choices don't rise to the level of "immutable characteristics" that merit protected-class status. The pretense of these Gender-Cosplayers™ should have been laughed out of the first courtroom where it appeared.Thanks 4 making this thread. As someone who was involved in the trans community for a long time this stuff weighs on my mind a lot.
I think the thing that turned me off of the ideology for good was the realisation that these people follow a different set of rules to everyone else. The core difference between troons and actual minority groups is that transgender is something you voluntarily BECOME, rather than something you naturally ARE. For example, gay people are exclusively attracted to the same sex. This is an easily observable fact. Troons have no equivalent to this - at best they can only describe a nebulous feeling of "dysphoria" which could just as easily be caused by a whole host of mental illnesses (depression, BDD, etc). This makes it unfeasible to enforce any sort of restriction on who is and isn't trans; since it's an impossible-to-disprove mental construct, anyone who claims to be transgender has no more or less reason to be considered as such than anyone else.
It's impossible for a "true" trans person to exist because troonism is, by its very nature, impossible to define. It's a specially protected group which is open to anyone. This is how the movement spreads - by promising a sense of belonging to those alienated by modern society, a sense of identity to insecure young people, an easy way for narcissists to protect their ego, and a space for the truly depraved to realise their sick fetishes, all the while being congratulated for their "strength" and "bravery" by people who should really know better. It turns people into useful idiots who care more about their imaginary culture war/fantasy world than the very real problems we as a society face.
My question is: how did we get here? It honestly feels like the sane people have been confined to the hidden corners of the internet while this ideology is allowed to spread unchecked.
That it wasn't, speaks poorly for the future of the rule of law in general.
