Beware Of The Word Eradicate When Associated With Trans People
Our world is messed up. Can you feel it? The world itself almost feels sick right now, but the people too. We don't even talk to each other if we're not in full agreement. We pick camps and stick closely with people who agree with everything. Differing opinions are a threat, and an attempt to understand each other is seen as a bad thing.
Everybody feels how the world is right now unless they're not in tune with the energy. I think hate, greed and selfishness are at the heart of it. The gap between the haves and have nots is widening. Fewer people are hoarding more of the resources and the dream of owning your own place and a little land seems far from reality these days.
Quick, we need somebody to blame for this.
The answer is simple. It's transgender people who are causing it. It's people who are diagnosing and treating the trans youth. You see, it used to be that we just beat those kids into submission and they learned how to obey what their parents told them they were. The problem was, a good portion of those kids ended up on drugs, working the streets and ultimately dying at somebody else's hands or by suicide.
Somehow, people have it in their heads that this is the way it needs to be again. We were starting to make progress. There was more understanding about what it was to be trans and more of an effort to help them. By my way of thinking, a well adjusted and loved trans child can become a well adjusted and loved adult. They can be more productive in society versus those who are left on the bottom rung of society. They are marginalized, under employed and face things like homelessness and drug addiction.
They are not threats to society. These people are basically just trying to hold on, and yet people are scapegoating them. I will not blame this all on religion. I think what happens is people associate God with punishing something they don't agree with, and that's when the real trouble starts.
The powers that be have gotten it into their heads that the trans community is the real threat to the world, and that means they've been passing laws in states throughout the country and even around the world. They want to stop this thing that they call transgenderism. As a member of the trans community, I find this trend to be alarming.
The very word transgenderism needs to be a red flag for people. When they put ism on something, it's often seen as a bad thing. The next thing they want to do is fix it, and some politicians have reasoned that they need to stop people from transitioning. They need to tell this person to "act normal" as defined by the person telling them how to act. It doesn't matter how you feel or who you know you are inside, you need to conform to what somebody else tells you to be.
The states are starting to push laws that prohibit people from transitioning. They prohibit people from being anything but a cisgender, straight person. I know some people who are cisgender are somehow threatened by the term cis, but it's merely a term to say that you were happy with the gender you were born with and nothing more. It's not a slur, but some people who are anti-trans are taking it that way. It adds to the anger they direct towards the community.
The problem with the people pushing these laws is they're not stopping there. Now we're starting down the road of a famous leader of 1930s Germany. We are now starting to hear them say that they want to "eradicate" transgender people. What they're saying is they don't want them breathe, although some apologists say they merely want to give them "conversion therapy" to fix them. Here's a newsflash, if you're forcing them to conform to the way you want them to be, you're eradicating them. You're participating in a form of genocide.
Let me be clear, if you're standing against transgender people to the point where you want to push laws against them, and your troubled by being compared to that leader in Germany or the fact that you're participating in a form of genocide, think long and hard. What else do you call eliminating a group of people? Some people will say it's okay because they're not trans and duck the issue entirely, but where will it stop? Some gay people are throwing transgender people under the bus, but do they think they're going to be spared once transgender people are eliminated? This is a slippery slope.
When you hear the term eradicate associated with transgender people and how to deal with them, be disturbed. Be alarmed. They are coming out against the community, and most people within the trans community just want to live and have a fair chance like anybody else. They want that job, they want that house and they have the ability to do good things if given the chance. When they're marginalized and underemployed, all they're really doing is fighting for their lives and their ability to exist. Therefore, they're not offering the full potential of what they can do to be productive in society.
Being transgender is not the real problem in this world. A person who is transgender didn't look to become this and go through so many things that make their life difficult. Transitioning is their way forward because it's the closest thing to making them feel normal in the body they have. When people throw hate at them and blame them for society's ills, they're also adding to their anxiety and depression. Then, you have those transgender people who become statistics when it becomes too much, or they suffer at the hands of somebody who blames them for society's ills.
It's not hard to see what's going on here. When they talk about transgenderism and then use the term eradicate, they're talking about eliminating a group of people. They're talking about genocide. I don't use this term lightly. If what I write here is something you find disturbing, you should be disturbed. You're watching it begin to play out right in front of your eyes, but now's the time to call it for what it is and stand up against it. You don't have to be transgender to know that trying to hurt or eradicate them is not a good thing. It is act of hate.
