Why Transgenders Gained So Much Power?

Big Pharma Greed and Woke Queer Agenda are Primary Reasons

Modern transgender activism is perhaps the best example to illustrate my point that the Woke don't really give any slightest shit about actual human rights or minority groups they claim to protect. According to statistics, only about 1% of population are transgender (though if Woke teachers would persuade kids that they are 'trans', this percentage would increase) - e.g., have a mental condition named ‘gender dysphoria’ (feeling born in a wrong body). And now are you seriously telling me that all the biggest corporations, all the largest media outlets and all the most popular politicians (including a current American President himself) go out of their way to accommodate a small minority of 1%? Like, REALLY? This should strike you as weird in the first place. Have you ever asked yourself why is it so?

Do you really believe it's because all those corporations and media and politicians are so 'virtuous and good-natured' that they genuinely care of transgenders' well-being, really? But I hope you aren't as dumb. Or do you think they're all afraid of backlash if they harm 'trans rights' in any way? That's more plausible, and yeah, backlash is real, but it's not really the answer though. It transforms my original question into another one - WHY and SINCE WHEN trans activists became SO powerful that major political players are afraid of their fury? And afraid so much that they're ready to trample women and children and yeah even gay rights but not to 'offend trans community' even in the slightest? How a tiny minority of 1% gained SO MUCH POWER in the Western society that the biggest political players are scared to 'offend' them?

It's a very interesting question because it doesn't look natural to me. I don't believe that a tiny minority of 1% can hold the whole society as hostages to their demands without a grand external help - both with regard to money and power. But we'll come back to it a bit later. First I wanted to distinguish modern trans activism from also modern Woke racial activism and gay activism of the past both of which, as some people might argue, illustrate how society protects the minority groups, and, hence, that there's nothing unusual in our society standing for trans rights so much. However, I argue that situation with both racial and gay activism is entirely different.

Yeah, the Woke clearly go over the top with their 'anti-racist' (which in truth is Marxist and racist at the same time) agenda, but here it at least clear why our society gives in to it. Racial sensitivities are pretty strong in the West, and especially in US, and collective guilt of white nation over its shameful racist past (Holocaust, colonialism, Black slavery, etc.) is pretty strong as well. It makes it easy for the Westerners to surrender to Woke race agenda - out of guilt, out of sensitivities, etc. It's understandable at least. Also, don't forget that Blacks constitute around 13% of American population, and add to this percentage Latinos, Muslims and indigenous people whom the Woke are also grooming, and you'd get much bigger percentage than 1% of trans people. So it's pretty understandable why the Woke succeeded to overplay the race agenda so much. With trans agenda, it's not that clear.

But what's about gay activism, some people might say - first sexual minority gained their rights, then ‘gender minority’ gains theirs, is there any difference? Yeah, there actually is, and pretty big one as such. First of all, gays are much larger minority than trans people - about 3 to 5% by statistical estimation. If you add there bisexual people who as recent research shows are much bigger group than it was previously thought (and perhaps can’t even be measured accurately because many closeted bisexuals still prefer to pass as straights), you would get much bigger percentage than 1% of trans people as well.

Even more importantly, unlike trans activism which is pushed from top to bottom currently (from the top management of LGBT+ organizations, by politicians in legislation, by media and corporations) gay activism, in the contrary, started from BOTTOM TO THE TOP. It began with Stonewall riots, with street activism and with rock stars of 60s and 70s openly pledging their support to gay rights and even occasionally declaring their own bisexuality. This push from the bottom had changed societal attitudes, and only AFTERWARDS media and politicians picked up the 'gay line' and began to change legislation and to give gay people some media coverage. Before societal change which was initiated by gay activists, there was no any action 'from the top' - from politicians, corporations and media. It's very important to remember. So it's also understandable why society began to support gay rights - because gay activists worked hard on the streets in order for that to happen.

With modern trans activism, things aren't that clear. First of all, actual transgender people with gender dysphoria gained recognition of their gender identity and a right to medical surgery and hormonal therapy long ago. Trans people came under LGBT+ umbrella and as such gained the basic protection from discrimination together with gays. So they gained their rights and recognition together with gays as well. They were always a part of LGBT+ community. So, trans rights aren't a new thing. But never before there was such a fuss about them as now.

What's happening now and what trans activists are fighting for now is less clear. I don't see that they're fighting for the well-being of trans people, to be fair, but rather for very weird and controversial things - giving hormones and even gender reassignment surgeries for kids, pushing trans women into female sports (but not trans men into male one, hypocrites), rewriting the language in order to get rid of gendered language and replace it with 'gender neutral one', etc. All of that gained a large traction only very recently, about two years ago, and since then, it was pushed very aggressively. And it's being pushed from top to bottom. I haven't seen trans activists protesting on the streets largely of a recent, or even in social media as much. I haven't seen societal change in favor of giving kids hormones or pushing trans women into female sports either. In the contrary, people react rather coolly to these things. But their opinion wasn't even asked, as it was the case with gay marriage before. Certain legislation is just being pushed from top to bottom, and people have to deal with it.

And this is the strangest thing of all. All trans issues are just being pushed from top to bottom without asking people do they like it or not, do they accept it or not. Trans activists are provided with huge platforms to do their activism by both mainstream media and social media. The legislation in their favor is being pushed by popular Left politicians. Biggest corporations donate their money to them. Doctors and medical community gave in to trans activists' demands as well even to such controversial ones as giving kids hormones. Everyone who disagrees and raises any concern is furiously attacked, called 'transphobic bigot' and then canceled and banned as such. We all remember which terrible abuse JK Rowling had faced last summer when she dared to speak out against trans activists' demands. All feminists who raise concerns over trans women - biological males - in female sports or safe spaces, are immediately labeled as 'TERFs' and canceled as well. Lesbians and straight men are being called 'transphobic' to refuse to date trans women with penises. Moreover, trans activists basically bent all major LGBT+ organizations to their agenda so they forgot of gays and lesbians more than completely. And so on, and so on.

My main point now is, however, not to show why modern trans activism is wrong and dangerous which I had shown many times before, but to illustrate how much power trans activists had gotten, so they could push their agenda literally everywhere (even to the Olympics!) and cancel everyone who disagrees. And this brings us back to my original question - why so tiny minority gained so much power over all our society? Why all the biggest political players are catering to this minority group so much?

Again, I don't believe it's out of 'care for trans rights', and as to fear of the backlash, it could be a deterrent only when trans activists had already gained such power so their backlash might destroy everyone. But how had they gained it? Again, I believe that there are some big interests at play. Largest corporations and mainstream media wouldn't support something where there's not a big money. So, someone gives a lot of money to trans activists. Who and why?

This is again more complex issue since I believe there are several factors at play. First, it's medical industry ofc, notorious Big Pharma. Trans medication is really expensive, and every trans person is literally a golden mine for the medical industry. So no wonder Big Pharma would like more people to be convinced that they're trans, and from as early age as possible so they could make money out of these people for their whole life. That explains giving hormones to the kids issue. There's one more thing even - since genetic industry develops constantly, more medical experiments on people are warranted, and trans people provide a perfect opportunity for that. So this far, all is clear - medical industry gives its money to trans activists so they could convince as many people as possible and from as early age as possible that they're trans. Profit.

However, this doesn't explain trans women in the female sports. It doesn't explain the whole pronouns and 'inclusive language' issue as well. Big Pharma have no interest in that, they can make money out of trans people without rewriting the language. So why those things were being pushed as well? I think that this is a part of larger Woke agenda of waging a war against objective reality itself. Just like the Woke fight against math and claim that 2+2 might actually equal 5, they want to erase the concept of biological sex and replace it with gender identity. The Woke want us to believe that there's no any biological difference between men and women, that it's only our 'prejudice' and social construction. Knowing that, everything becomes clear.

It's clear why the Woke need to rewrite the language so if we get rid of gendered language, we won't be thinking of each other as of men and women anymore. Trans women in female sports tell the same story - biological differences don't matter, only gender identity matters. Even forcing lesbians and straight dudes to date trans women makes sense now - if there's indeed no biological difference between men and women, then we should be attracted to 'gender identity', not to the biological sex. So, in other words, if someone claims to be a woman, even if it's a non-transitioned hairy man, all people who are attracted to women (e.g., lesbians and straight guys) MUST be attracted to this person as well, otherwise they're 'transphobic'. Because according to the Woke, the mere self-identification with a woman makes a man a full-scale woman without any biological differences (remember the Woke mantra 'trans women are women'!). That's utterly ridiculous and very dangerous idea yet this is what the Woke are pushing down on us.

So, to conclude, trans activism, at least in its current shape, is utterly unnatural and has nothing to do with actual trans rights. It's not supported by the large population and I doubt that even by majority of real trans people with gender dysphoria themselves. It's pushed down very aggressively by trans activists who gained financial support from Big Pharma, and political and ideological support from the main Western evil of our age - the Woke Left - who use trans dogmas in their crusade against biology and objective reality. Again, think for yourself, people aren't angels, and no one would support a tiny minority of 1% if there's nothing to gain from it. Especially if current trans agenda has very little to do with actual trans rights and everything - with medical industry and Woke Marxist cultural revolution. So nope, I refuse to support modern trans activism and don't advise this to you either.
