As a blue hair, there is a reading of this as anarcho communist culture appropriation from a specifically Maoist strategy. Adopt a highly vulnerable and conspicuous minority with numbers so large it becomes a majority and causes some political leverage. If reading Donald Trump as a fascist is a reading, then reading nonbinary youngsters as the youth in the Cultural Revolution is also a reading.

The question is what about this highly vulnerable and specific minority? Should the rules that apply to them apply to all of society? Playing that game is what is causing the trouble. Leave the trannies alone.
