Not that trans hate/hysteria isn't a very real thing, but in addition to being its own thing, it also serves as a cover for gay hate. Because it's briefly become socially unacceptable to go after homosexuals. But they still fucking hate them. So "trans" becomes a sort of proxy or dog whistle. Sure as fuck, gay marriage is going to be an issue before the end of the year.

Oh they are already going after Obergfell. Trans hate was always a proxy for gay hate. Just like the whole drag queen story hour thing. They are all Trojan horses to remove the rights of anyone who isn't a straight white Christian male.
