The JK row has just made me feel really quite incredulous today. How did we even get here?

Echo-chambers on social media, the loss of main stream medias unbalanced reporting, click bait reporting, far left activism and political groups, pharma companies.

Its the one rights movement that really benefits powerful men. Other Rights movements strip power from your rich, white man, the TRA movement doent do this.

It enables justification of misogony, its a movement that your leftist misogonistic male can really get behind.

In summary lots of men

Its easy for rich or powerful men to get behind the TRA movement, it has no negative affect on them. By supporting it it makes them look good and they get a good dose of women hating in too. Win win really.

Men. And trans women. Who are still ultimately men.

In a way their aggressive campaigning confirms trans women have more in common with their birth sex than any gender they assume.

They're demonstrating very masculine traits by being so threatening and angry.

I feel ridiculous saying this but sometimes I wonder if this was all started by Russian troll farms, putting it out there that transpeople are the most oppressed group ever and that anybody who questions trans ideology is transphobic, until people started to believe it. For what reason, I don’t know.

Hey, why are Russians always the bad guys? I think your theory has some merit though. It definitely smacks of the divide and rule tactics used by the right to make the left destroy itself. Setting feminists against the LGBTQ-can't-remember-the-rest-of-the-acronym woke types. It can't be as lucrative as Brexit though.
