Concern Over The Talk Of Eradicating 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.
