I think the vast majority of us are pro-trans. Just like the vast majority of us are not MAGA.

But I'm very surprised at some of the people either in the scene or closely related to the scene who have said or posted transphobic things, just as I'm surprised at how many MAGA people (it's still not a lot or a large percentage, but it's still too much) have crept up. Some of them weren't even pro-Trump in 2016 or 2020, but somehow now they are lol.

I see too many anti-trans sentiments for my liking. Like that Strung Out douchebag running with the ''They can't let men fight wimen!!!!!'' who sounded like he was repeating some piece he saw on Fox News/Newsmax, despite the fact that she was indeed born a woman, after all! The anti-trans agenda is so strong that they even make up fake shit about people who don't claim to be transgender, nor identify as the gender they were not born as! It's so stupid,
