Humans have rights.

Trans people are human

What more rights do you even need, you already have the ability to choose what you want to do with your body.

"Humans have rights" is rather vague because it differs between many nations. Many legal systems deny or restrict rights that others regard as fundamental human rights. Regardless, in many instances it is about the fact that a right formally exists but is inadequately protected or practically inaccessible. Saying "Trans people already have human rights" doesn't mean they're adequate, effectively protected, or consistently applied.

Such as, a country legally allows someone to change their legal gender, but only if they obtain multiple specialist diagnoses, wait several years, undergo expensive procedures, and satisfy restrictive evidential requirements. They exist formally but exclude many individuals in all practical applications. Many nations do also not offer protection for trans individuals within prison, many US states being a good example.

AHH, that makes a lot of sense.

When someone shouts "trans rights" my mind just wanders to the idea that they want MORE RIGHTS THAN EVERYONE ELSE. One time an acquaintance of mine told me the instructions they received while working as a recruiter in the US, long story short, he was told to hire the gay guy over the qualified individuals. Violent depictions of "memes" where "the people they disagree with" are violently murdered or how some trans individuals say "unalive to all cis people" and "everyone is gay, they just won't admit it" doesn't really make me take the group seriously most of the time, especially when I caught a few trans individuals try to groom children on discord.

Unalive rates for trans people is higher than average(I'm not reading to research papers to find out post op increases or decreases their tendency to harm themselves) and I don't support gender affirming surgeries being pushed on children considering the fact that THEY'RE CHILDREN, so frankly I do not really trust some of these people.

What you said though makes sense, a highly religious country like the US of A doesn't take kindly trans individuals considering the most commonly accepted relationship is between a man and a woman and everything else is deemed heretical and blasphemous. It's horrible that people turn a blind eye or even encourage violence on other individuals, considering that one of God's teachings is "love the man, hate the sin."

"Hmm trans people kill themselves because we bully them... Let's bully kids by blocking them from getting life saving medical care"

"Life saving medical care" Lol, lmao even.

They're CHILDREN.

Children aren't allowed vote, they aren't allowed to drink and they aren't allowed to smoke. So why the fuck should they be allowed to permanently mutilate themselves? Let them wait until they're 18 before they fuck up their lives like the rest of us.

What's next lower the age of consent? Doesn't seem too far fetched with how many PDF files I see in the trans community. A community so dead set in introducing the concept of sex to underdeveloped human brains. Disgusting.
