Ok I know this sounds wild but I wanted to add onto this because as a trans person I wanna mention how trans-medicalism VERY easily slips into alt-right mindset. When I was young and still accepting my identity I struggled a lot with trying my best to “look” trans enough. Kalvin Garrah was really influential at the time and to put this simply, he led a lot of young trans people down a road that encourages alt-right ideals, such as hating “snowflakes” etc. it also reinforced heavily gender stereotypes, and encouraged hate against trans people in order to appeal to cis people. Quite literally, he was turning the community against itself in order to make cis people more comfortable with our existence. In doing this it caused people to excuse alt-right behavior because it supported the narrative that they were normal and we weren’t and if we wanted their approval then we had to permit their discrimination and bigotry. His target demographic was younger trans kids and this had a huge negative impact and I had to spend years unlearning hating myself and yearning for cis approval. I never got too deep into alt-right mindset luckily but I remember being hyper-critical of how others presented their gender when I was only 14. I saw many people follow that rabbit hole deeper and deeper until they out right became TERFS or worse. Trans-medicalism directly encouraged alt-right ideals by putting trans people down to try and get “acceptance” (put in air quotes because the point was to become the trans person that bigots pointed to and used as an excuse to say “I’m not transphobic I like this one trans person!”) from these people who never wanted to support trans people, just wanted an excuse to continue being transphobic.
