Because hateful people always need an other. an outsider. Someone to feel fearful of, yet superior too.
It used to be black people.
then it was the irish and the itallians.
then it was hispanics.
then it was gays
and now its trans people.

Oh honey it never stopped being black people.
Most on that list are still targets. A world without trans people cannot exist, and noone’s happy to be a canary in the coal mine…better believe anyone on that list is watching their own rights be stripped away when trans people’s rights are. (General Bodily Autonomy not the least among them)
