I don't believe for one second that anyone has said any of these things to you. This use of wildly over-exaggerated caricatures of "people who disagree with the ideology we literally invented and continue make up every day" into these crazy fundamentalist religious types is a tactic being used to represent your political opponents in the make extremely and ridiculous way because it's easier to make you look like the good guy. (This is what they mean by a "straw man" by the way-- it's representing your opponent in a really unfair, dishonest, over-exaggerated way because it's easier for you to defeat the "straw man" you built than to wrestle with the nuance of the reality of the issue)

Your opponents, by the way, DO NOT think, believe, feel or are trying or accomplish 90% of the shit I see Leftists online accusing them (us?) of. And there is nothing they saw that led them to feel that way besides seeing other Leftists making wild claims that they repeat, or they simply grossly over-exaggerate, then everyone who reads it repeats it and eventually no one has even spoken of an opponent of gender/trans ideology or heard what they felt about any of the issues but all of you claim to know for sure that they what to "genocide trans people.'

It's all a fucking fiction-- because it is one of the Left's primary weapons-- SELF-victimization, falsehoods/lies, hysterical and often purposeful over-exaggerations, fascist modes of enforcement (cancel culture, doxing, online harassment and bullying, being banned off platforms, etc), and the major weapons? Emotional blackmail and manipulation.

Opponents of these trans-relates policies DON'T EVEN HATE TRANS PEOPLE. We literally just don't want people putting children through gender ideology classes or sex change surgeries and medications, and to not make female athletes compete against trans-identified males and share single-sex spaces with them for those own safety, comfort and privacy-- no one is trying to eliminate trans people-- they literally had all the rights they have no 10+ years ago.

But if the people who do these things haven't been able to develop the honesty, mindfulness, and tolerance to observe their own inner mental and emotional landscape to see these things, or be willing to allow their biases to be challenged and actually sharing a good faith conversation with the people who oppose these policies (they don't oppose trans people-- they oppose CERTAIN policies,and they oppose how people are being treated if they oppose these policies).

So much of this division would die off if this ideology of the one side wasnt being forcefully implemented in every institution and level of government. If the Right was doing something comparable, we would never stop crying about fascism.
