Two considerations of the trans epidemic: Occam's Razor, and then something more sinister, but I think they're related.

Transwomen (lets be honest, overwhelming majority are MtF) are just an extension of the incel problem, these guys usually wound up dying in war or going gay in ancient times, now they just become women cause they enjoy higher social status as such.

Honestly nowadays with gender dynamics as free and out in the open as they are, I don't see this problem ever really going away, clearly trans MtF dudes somehow have a better chance living as women (instead of failed men) and probably aren't as open to just male on male gay sex. Because women are now as choosy as ever in human history, basically slightly less extreme than cavemen times where it was 1 in 17 men having sex.

Also, you're acting like this is some new thing. It's just that powers at large feel more comfortable pushing it. It's been around for a long time. Members of European royalty were trans for centuries. Many famous "actresses" and actors were and are trans and were passed off. Many celebrities as well. As far as I understand it's some cornerstone of their deals with Lucifer, Baal, Moloch or whatever entities these psychos bargain with for power. Also since leaders, governments, power attracts sociopaths probably driven to be this way by inceldom, there's some overlap between their gay little cults and the incel problem and their preferred mass "solution."
