RE: Agitator presses their luck in Florida and sadly, I think it was for "internet points""

I worry about the conflation of trans activists and pedos. The popular perception on the right is that they form a perfect circle in a venn diagram, but I'm unconvinced.
On the other hand, I suspect the trans movement is largely a bizarre blend of politics and .mental illness, with the former telling the latter that their problems are rooted in gender and how others perceived it.
The left says, "if you don't accept whatever someone tells you about their gender, you're literally murdering them."
The right says, "the trans want to molest your kids."
Yeah, the activist obsession with kids is creepy. No, disagreeing with someone's self-identification is not a violation of their rights. But is using the wrong bathroom really a crime?
in college, I routinely used the wrong bathroom because it was the only one available and women routinely did this as well. We never thought of it as a crime then so no, I don't believe it is a crime.
I don't think it takes a great deal of mental capacity to understand that these rules and laws that are being made are simply political in nature and the ends that people go to have this be the hill they are going to die on are pretty damn stupid. I mean, the example of a daughter being molested by a man in a dress is easily circumvented and when my sisters were very young, my father would always accompany them into the MEN'S bathroom, which I think any good parent would.
The idea that without this rule that kids are going to be getting molested left and right is utter nonsense for sure and most places have "family bathrooms" anyway.
However, I think that the reason that this became an issue in the first place is because some people with as you say "mix of politics and mental illness" really made a scene of it by having their junk out in fitness locker rooms took it to an extreme. Those cases should be punished of course, but the fact that they were not kind of lead us to this point... i think.
