For those of you on the Left shouting about society demonizing and hating and discriminating against trans people, you're intentionally missing the point and trying to shape the discussion in a dishonest way. Society has ALWAYS denounced certain groups for their behavior when that behavior was generally deemed offensive, repugnant, perverted, and/or not conducive to promoting a healthy society. We reject murderers, rapists, molesters, and wife beaters for those very reasons. We aren't discriminating against them. Their behavior is unacceptable in a healthy society and dangerous to it. As for non-criminal behavior, society generally rejects those with atrocious social skills and manners, poor hygiene, chronic nose-pickers, loud and boorish people, those who are over the top self-absorbed and rude to everyone around them, those with personality traits that make them act well outside of social norms, racists, and so on. If your neighbor, who never bathes and smells like a dead goat, rubs one out in public every day and screams obscenities at everyone, are you discriminating against him and being a bigoted, narrow-minded hater for criticizing him and rejecting him and his behavior, or are you being normal and calling it what it is: unacceptable?
Throughout history in most cultures, transvestism, transgenderism, and other sex-related aberrant behaviors were condemned and seen as perversions, attacks upon normalcy, and generally regarded as affronts to common decency and at odds with a healthy society. It may have always existed, but it was recognized as aberrant, bad for society, and certainly not encouraged, let alone celebrated. They aren't being discriminated against any more than adulterers, embezzlers, non-bathers, public masturbators, flashers, rude jerks, or any other group exhibiting unacceptable behavior. You don't think of it as discrimination when those people are ostracized, rejected, or criticized. Same for transgenders. They exhibit disturbed, poorly adjusted, aberrant behavior, and most of us aren't going to welcome them into society and our children's schools and cheer them on. Their behavior is disturbed and disturbing, and bad for society. No matter how much a few of you gush over them and virtue signal to the rest of your bubble, it doesn't change that fact.
I feel for them and think we should offer help, but those of you cheering them on are doing them a disservice in the same way that encouraging a schizophrenic by telling him his delusions and the voices he hears are real, or telling someone suffering from anorexia that their body image is accurate and they should get liposuction and keep starving themselves. Transgenderism is not a healthy, normal, valid identity issue. It's a mental disorder. Some of you are so concerned about toeing the party line and virtue signaling, that you're willing to say anything, despite the damage it does to those people, to children being groomed by them, and to society at large.
