Also trans brigade has not allowed research into detransitioners or the effectiveness of transition at alleviating dysphoria because its ~transphobic for some time. So no one really knows the effectiveness of transition or the rates of detransition.

so much this - reading accounts of researchers who are being defunded or blocked in other ways from pursuing or publishing studies that go against the affirmation model plus the psychotherapists who have had their licenses revoked for practicing the watchful waiting method or other practitioners who just go along with the affirmation based model for fear of consequences is terrifying and is really what has peaked me to the point of no return.
