Originally, this was going to be titled ‘LGBTQ+ Activists Suck’ but I had so much to write on trans activists alone that I’ve just decided to dedicate this whole article to them. Anti-LGBT sentiment is real and is only getting worse, but not due to LGBT people who just want to be active members in society, but by these weird activists who keep pushing an agenda that only gets more and more insane. Most LGBT people are not for what these activists want, and more and more LGBT people are calling these weirdos out (thank God). With all this being said, I just want to give a few reasons as to why I think trans activists suck.
The Lie of Trans Violence
We have reached a point in society where most people, whether on the left or right, don’t really care if someone is LGBT, and that is a problem for activists. When LGBT people are no longer fearful, when they can be comfortable being themselves in society, they no longer have any reason to need activists, but from Diversity and Inclusion Councilors at schools to speakers on “queer issues,” activism is an incredibly lucrative business, so, why would any activist want to lose this job? They wouldn’t. So, what must they do to keep it? Ensure they are in constant demand. The best way to do that is by keeping LGBT people afraid for their own lives. Enter the lie of transgender violence, or more fittingly, the omission of incredibly important truths.
Let’s take this Forbes article titled, ‘375 Transgender People Murdered In 2021-‘Deadliest Year’ Since Records Began.’ This sounds awful, right? It is. 375 people lost their lives. That’s sad regardless of what group of people it is, but here’s the thing—while most people will only read the title and think, “This is why we need activists,” ask yourself, what does this article actually say? Turns out, 375 transgender people around the entire world were murdered in 2021. This is important to point out, as Americans tend to think about their country alone. As the article states,
“The majority of the murders happened in Central and South America (70%). But like last few years, the most deaths in a single country occurred in Brazil, totalling 33% of global deaths.”
I point this out, because this shows that transphobia is not this rampant thing in the U.S. where the loudest LGBT people seem to do their activism, because, well, the money is here and it’s easy work when you’re not actually oppressed. I, also, want to point out that they use a number instead of a percentage, and that’s for good reason. The most conservative estimate of trans and gender-nonconforming individuals is 0.1 percent of the population. There are nearly 8 billion people on earth. 0.1 percent of 8 billion means there is a conservative estimate of 8 million transgender people on earth. If 375 were murdered that is 0.00005 percent. The COVID-19 vaccine had a higher likelihood of killing transgender people than trans people dying by violence. They use the number because it’s scarier for trans people. It seems high and is meant to put people into a panic so that they feel like trans violence is a huge problem that needs to be dealt with immediately. It is a problem, sure, but one that is way overblown by these fear mongering activists.
However, let’s bring this to the U.S. According to The Washington Post, “At least 45 transgender or nonbinary people have been fatally shot or killed by other violent means in 2021” which beat last year’s record of 44 transgender or nonbinary people.
I’d like to point out, first, that they added nonbinary people because if they would have just done transgender people, the number would have been lower and therefore it would have been less concerning. Once the year was over, the total number of transgender and nonbinary people that died from violence in 2021 was 57. This is in a country that had 332,915,073 people that same year according to populationpyramid.net. Taking into consideration the 0.1 percent of trans people, we end up having 332,915 transgender people in the U.S. This means 57 people murdered by violence only accounts for 0.017 percent of the transgender population.
The article also quotes Human Rights Campaign Foundation Interim President Joni Madison who said, “Each of these 45 names represents a whole person and a rich life torn from us by senseless violence, driven by bigotry and transphobia and stoked by people who hate and fear transgender people and the richness of their experience.”
Now, I’ve followed the Human Rights Campaign for a while and I will be the first to say, don’t believe anything they put out. They are the activists that want to keep LGBT people scared and they do so by pushing out propaganda and lies. The very statement that Madison gave is untrue, and more people would know this if they would actually go back and do the research. The reality is, yes, while some were murdered by transphobes, many were not considered hate crimes or never had a motive determined. Furthermore, many of these individuals had other noteworthy issues that led to their deaths including domestic partner violence, involvement with drugs, and in at least one case I found, literally saving other people’s lives. I think that last one is important. Their name was Jo Acker. They were 26 years old in Idaho working as a security guard at a mall when they confronted a gunman. However, you wouldn’t know that by these LGBTQ+ activists who simply say, “This number of trans people died by violence.” Acker, in my eyes, did not die a victim, but rather a hero. However, while this is shown in the article, the reality is that no one, maybe even most of these activists, would ever even know this.
Detransitioners
Detransitioning is a growing phenomenon and with the normalization of talking to children about neo-genders and transitioning in our society, it’s no surprise. In fact, in one peer reviewed study that looked at 237 detransitioners, they found that, while 51 percent were able to find help from LGBT organizations during their transition, only 13 percent were able to find help from LGBT organizations for their detransition.
The fight against gender-affirming care is something that has been near and dear to many detransitioners, LGBT people, allies, and even conservatives and apolitical people, and with good reason. Of those 237 participants, they found the top three reasons for detransitioning were that they realized that their gender dysphoria was related to other issues (70 percent), health concerns (62 percent), and that their transition did not help with their dysphoria (50 percent). In this study, the average age of transition was 18 years old. Yet, many trans activists declare kids can consent to a transition and claim it won’t harm them, but these are lies.
Scott Newgent from the movie What Is a Woman? talks about his experience as a detransitioner, and it is absolutely heartbreaking. He went on to have an interview on the podcast The Quisha King Show, and it personally had me in tears. He goes into the complications of transitioning and how trans people are the first minority group to have a dollar sign over them by hospitals. Even more heartbreaking, Scott’s story is just one of thousands. Weirdly more than the number of trans people dying by violence. However, while trans activists are ready and willing to speak about trans violence, they tell detransitioners to shut up because they’re hurting their movement and because detransitioners make up such a small percentage, they shouldn’t even be brought up. Interesting when you actually know the truth about trans violence.
“Politically Transgender”
Trans activists don’t actually care about trans people, and they show this in their actions toward trans people who don’t agree with them politically, because the reality is, they don’t care about people, they care about their agenda. However, if the people they are using to push their agenda forward speak out, they get extremely hostile. Conservative YouTuber and host of the podcast The Blaire White Project Blaire White is a transgender woman who uses her platform to speak out against the radical left, specifically targeting pedophiles, feminists, and (you guessed it), woke trans activists. Due to her views, she has received an unsurmountable amount of hate from trans activists. In a recent video, she reacted to a mix of TikTokers who either felt hate or appreciation toward her. The ones that show hate show a seriously warped point of view in my opinion, and White takes it with a shrug (it’s seriously worth the watch).
On a much more depressing note, trans activists have also bullied and harassed trans people for not sharing their views. Transgender woman Daphne Dorman committed suicide after speaking up in defense of Dave Chappelle in 2019. She received backlash for her support and was dead a few days later. Even sicker, leftist media outlets made no mention of the online harassment she received by trans activists and wrote headlines and articles that made it sound like she committed suicide because of Chappelle’s jokes. Headlines like, Transgender actress, activist and comedienne Daphne Dorman, referenced in Dave Chappelle’s ‘transphobic’ Netflix special, commits suicide.
Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner, who transitioned after competing in the Olympics, also came under fire by trans activists for stating she does not believe trans women should compete in women’s sports for the sake of “fairness.”
Conclusion
From this, I hope it’s understood not only that trans activists suck, but also that you are not transphobic simply because you disagree with trans activists as they really don’t have trans people’s best interest in mind. They are not fighting for trans people, they are fighting for their own destructive political agenda, and they need to be called out and laughed at to the point they either do their signature leftist screech or shut the hell up and go away, because that is the only real way to deal with these weirdos. They call people who are politically against them names like “racist” and “transphobic” because they count on people not wanting to be perceived in these negative lights. They count on these names to shut people up so they can push forward with their regressive agendas. However, as a man who happens to be attracted to men, when I get told somebody is homophobic, my first thought is, “I’d probably like them.” This is because what these activists say is not reality. It is lies. It is propaganda. It is not to be tolerated.
