    “This whole notion that it’s woke Democrats that are turning our kids into being trans is idiotic,” she says. So is the argument that doctors are driven by profit. “It’s kind of laughable because the population is so small,” she says. “So why? Why? Why are they doing this?”

    Because they are a convenient scapegoat to falsely attribute all your problems.

    Maybe this woman should consider why her fellow Republicans similarly blame immigrants for problems and put two and two together.

      That level of self-awareness gets surgically removed the instant one chooses to identify as a republican.

        I think I’d rather kill myself than become a Republican, if I was forced to pick one tbh. My empathy for the common struggle of regular people working to simply live quiet lives is like a core part of what I am, I can’t imagine myself without it. I’m not perfect by any means, and I’ve got some contradictions and biases, but like holy shit I don’t know if you could cut that out of my brain without killing me in the process.
