My bad, I assumed that since you were commenting on a post about a meme coined by Alex Jones you were talking about him. Maybe you could be more specific? Who is getting called homophobic and sexist (or whatever you actually mean, if not that) for what you posted?
I get called those things when I tell people I believe the cause that a lot of young people are struggling with their gender is because of hormone imbalance (before puberty) .
I believe this imbalance can caused by external factors, like digesting xenoestrogen.
It doesn’t mean because I think about that stuff and have a theory about it, that I am transphobic. Yet a lot of people can’t seem to see the difference between me just having a theory and “Alex Jones” ;)
Ah, see, why you get called transphobic is for several reasons:
You assume that the number of young transgender people is increasing simply because more are now safe enough to come out and because you’re hearing about it more now. See also: the rate of left-handedness in the US by birth year. The rate of left handedness didn’t quadruple because chemicals in the water were making everyone sinister, it’s because they stopped beating the shit out of children for writing with their left hand.
You speak about being transgender as a disease caused by environmental contamination. I will not elaborate on this one further as I feel what is wrong with that to be self evident.
The truth is trans adults are trans kids first, even if they aren’t able to express it to other people (for safety reasons or because they don’t understand it themselves). There have also been trans people (who again, were children before they were adults!) documented throughout history in essentially every society, regardless of how respected they were. If it’s plastic that’s turning all the kids trans, then that doesn’t fit the historical evidence; trans people existed long before plastics.
You’re entitled to your own opinions, you’re not entitled to your own facts. Which is what Alex Jones does, and why the comparison is getting drawn here.
