There are some brave people. Riley Gains for example & there will be pushback. I think the reason mentally ill trannies are seemingly everywhere is these stories sell click bait etc. Drivers slow down to stare at accidents.

This is a skillful diagnosis of society’s disordered moral compass — or rather, distinct lack thereof. I particularly appreciate the point that people genuinely want to do the right thing. Not only does it help us understand where they’re coming from, it also helps us to estimate the potency of their beliefs. Since an earnest belief that you’re doing the right thing can, as you illustrate, be wildly dangerous when based on the wrong sense of morality. I think CS Lewis said something of the tyranny of good intentions.
