There’s such a comical disconnect between pieces like this, where supporting trans people is some deep-grained orthodoxy no one ever dares to question, and the actual reality of living as a trans person, where most of us don’t get adequate healthcare and “respectable” newspapers publishes opinion pieces on whether you should be allowed to partake in society or not on a regular basis.
We joke that we are all online too much but all of these ghouls are even more online and they think online is for their entertainment. Like TV or something. So when 13 trans folk dog pile them for a shit take they conclude there must be gorillions of trans out there. So it’s some kind of epidemic. Totally divorced from any reality and based in a callous selfish worldview. You interrupt their stupid entertainment. It’s a weird theory I got.

Don’t even get me started on the NYT…
