Yes. That’s exactly it. The fact that transgender people exist in the world is abhorrent to them so it’s an affront to their senses that anyone would acknowledge them as human beings. They need something to hate in order to feel alive and they’ve latched onto trans-hate as their new socially acceptable hatred.
I’m grateful for the brave public figures who are absorbing so much hatred and rage but standing tall in who they are none the less. We need them to fight back against the hatred just by virtue of existing in the public space so that we can move forward, however slowly.
