    I would hope that the difference is a trans person wasn’t manipulated by a deranged cult during their formative years. If that isn’t the difference, then the repubes were right all along.

      Well, they’re not right.

      If maga folks who think this way actually could get over their fear and disgust and see trans people as fellow humans, maybe they could truly listen to trans people’s experiences and listen to the medical community, and come to realize their view doesn’t line up with reality.

      Thinking trans people are trans because someone convinced them they are is similar to thinking sexual preference is a choice (it isn’t, if you didn’t know that).
