elon musk, mark zuckerberg, J.K rowling! Are the names that come to mind.
3 from different background: a African immigrant benefiting from government spending, an American smart young engineer, and a female English successful writer.
They are no politicians, and cant be accuse of trying to gather some vote. Multi-billions amongst them.
I get they lean to the right to protect their cash, with less tax and regulation. I get they are racist because they fear some poor people will take their cash.
But why the hatred for trans people ? It’s 1% of the population, they cant do anything, dont threaten anyone. There is no rational or psychological reason
*EDIT: I read all the comments. A lot of interesting explanation: smokescreen/scapegoat, maintaining the male/female power structure, new face of anti-gay , projection / self-hatred , just louder voice …
I realize, may be, I didn’t post a good question. May be it is less about the ultra-rich but more about why that rhetoric work on the general population (else it would not have taken hold as it does). For that I have a 2 cent theory: The raise of the cult of Nature we have since the global warming. The idea, that everything natural is better. The ugly version is only natural male and female are worthy*
We do not know for sure. But couple things are clear. Once you have money - you have the power. Meaning you can express your opinion with less fucks given. They probably associate trans people with sexual perversion. Where a man becomes a woman and then goes to womens bathrooms or sucks other men dicks and some probably do have sex without ever getting pregnant and bringing another slave into capitalism. I think transition from women to men could be seen with less stigma and reasons for transitioners could differ. But again think if you had children and kindergarten teacher is some dude who become a woman but probably still has penis and man’s brain and you leave your little one with them for a few years to grow and develop. I dont know i dont know… 😂 problem is trans associated with sexual perversion and normal people are usually not comfortable with that.
what the fuck is wrong with you
Alright, poster, I’m revoking your right to lump yourself in with “normal” people as you clearly do not meet the requirements
Deeply unserious of you to consider yourself “normal” when this is your understanding of gender and sexuality. Touch grass and talk to people.
Must resist temptation to see what the comment said…
Not worth it, just someone doing
CW: Transphobia
the whole “I’m not transphobic, but I can see why people might be!” deal where they invalidate gender identity as a concept and portray it as a fetish and harmful for children to be around.
Hope they cop a perma.
“but” is a bigot’s favorite word!
It’s a shield made out of tissue paper.
so tell me what do i need to know to understand it better? What else is there? ;D
We don’t have men’s brains. Scans actually show that our brain structures are more similar with our gender identity than our assigned gender at birth, especially after hormonal and social transitioning.
Just the general fixation on gender as a sexual thing and not a gender thing, the dehumanization of transgender individuals, and vague connections to pedophilia and “child corruption” that don’t exist, as well as erasing trans identities and othering them, referring to brains as “male brains” for transwomen, the list goes on. Touch grass.
and that is exactly what them rich people think and you can do nothing about it, because you poor.
It’s exactly what you seem to think, me not being a billionaire has nothing to do with your intense transphobia.
oh I am the problem now? :D some of you people are hilarious. Touch grass
You’re a massive transphobe, and that’s a problem.
maybe there should be more tv shows or movies with trans ppl so we would relax a bit and ease it in ;DDDDD What do you think?
