This is relevant to everyone. If you aren't trans you might not get it, but trans rights are literally cis people's rights. It's your rights, whoever you are. And every excuse the state makes to abridge our rights takes away from every one of us.

Seems like the only people allowed by cisciety to have opinions on trans people are cis people. "How dare those *insert slur here* speak up, Don't they know we know better than their feeble undecisive minds can do. God, why can't they know their place and be beneath us like it always have been"
The vitriol the trans are receiving is a horrifying reminder on what gays received in the ‘80’s. That homophobia is *mostly* unacceptable now. Trans people deserve that same recognition and compassion most gays now receive. People are people not labels.
The “slippery slope” argument is flawed. Even if there were only one trans person in the US their rights would still be important and worthy to protect. We can’t lean on “they’ll start with trans people and eventually get to me” and must say “they started with trans people and need to be stopped.”
