You were waiting with that list weren't you LOL. Now ask yourself how many people have lived through history and how miniscule a number trans people are.

Yes, that is my point. A very minuscule number of trans people, less than 1%

Seems pretty silly to have so much of our focus and politics spent on them, doesn’t it?

When a trans boy turned girl rapes two girls in girls locker rooms in Virginia, when boys posing as girls break swimming and track records at state and national championships, when women prisoners are being raped in prison by so called trans women, when school districts decide that the parents shouldn't be notified when their child wants "gender affirming care" and the school is arranging doctor visits, when employers tell employees they must use everyone's preferred pronouns or face discipline up to and including termination, when military effectiveness is compromised to include trans people, then it's absolutely silly that the Left thinks we should just accept it as normal and arrange our lives around these people if we're in contact with any of them.
