>Not everyone is talking about it.
Yeah, every time it makes the news, it's all everyone is talking about. It sucks all the air out of the room, and we don't talk but anything else.
>specific demographic made it an issue
Yeah, I would blame the liberals and the conservatives. Basically the political class is to blame at the most superficial level.
>corporate media gets off on controversy.
That's part of it. But this controversy doesn't involve us talking about stiff that actually matters, like the economy or geopolitics or the expanding surveillance state brought to is by toxic public private partnerships.
>Most of the shit surrounding it isn't even true.
I know. However, liberals do a horrible job clarifying that because they're more preoccupied with sounding morally superior compared to conservatives.
>Kids aren't getting their dicks chopped off by radical teachers.
I know. But, since you brought the issue up, the notion of parental consent/notification regarding trans identity in children has been eroded somewhat in a few states, and it's once again the liberals who are being stubbornly disingenuous about this when they could take the initiative to be more nuanced about it. THIS is what earns trans people as a whole a lot of hate, unfortunately. It's one of those emotional issues for parents and parasitic right wing edgelords.
>Most, if not all, of the "gender-affirming surgeries" are for boys in puberty who have gynoplasty.
I actually have seen these reports before.
>everyone hyper focused on manlets getting leg lengthening surgeries.
I told you before, there's a REASON why people are hyper focused. It's a convenient distraction
