I am not on the trans "side". I am naturally GC.
I just know that most trans people are not hateful or violent. I have a trans child and know many others and none are aggressive or nasty. They are rather vulnerable people who are mostly autistic and they are scared.
I have watched both sides polarise over the years. Just on this thread a now deleted post read "they are disgusting people".
Of course violent signs are a pathetic own goal and of course there are bad actors out there. But frothing over the daily express, mail and telegraph showing a highly curated set of signs out of ten of hundreds of perfectly mild signs that are non-violent is playing into the hands of those in the media who enjoy stoking division. Clearly the vast vast vast majority of people attending these rallies are not violent people who want to decapitate or shoot women. I for one would like those people removed from the protests, but I don't think it's my trans child's fault that some wankers are also trans.
My trans (adult) child spent today volunteering at a community garden, planting potatoes and spring onions. She has never sought for anyone to be sacked, nor used a female toilet or service. She just wants to live peacefully in the way that most makes sense to her. I will not allow you or anyone else to tar her with the same brush as someone carrying a placard that spews hate.
