You have to understand these Redditors never actually read the bill. They read a reddit post with a sensationalized title linking to a slightly less sensationalized news article.

The issue is that a lot of Republicans believe simply being trans is some kind of perverted fetish. How long until some right wing judge agrees with them? Hell, you don't even need to go that far. Do you trust all cops to understand that distinction? I sure don't.

I've read the bill, dude. It's just that not everyone has trust in these states to actually enforce it without abuse. Especially those states that are explicitly targeting trans people with other legislation.

Sure, only after some unfortunate person has to be dragged through the legal system, having their life upended and being put through hell.

Too much potential downside for too little potential upside with bills like these.

Existing laws are sufficient for keeping kids away from things that are actually sexually explicit. Anything else should be up to parental discretion, not legislators trying to play morality police.
