That's why it "seems" no one is seeing what's happening.

Many people are unspokenly aware that if they stand against the approved talking points they'll eventually be out of a job. If you make enough noise about kids transitioning, which is a very uncontroversial subject by polling, you're just putting a target on your back. We're all aware that we're just one viral tweet away from not being able to make mortgage payments and never getting a job again. If you're a white collar worker you have so much to lose with this shit. You think any serious firm is going to hire you after some journalistic rag puts you on some hate list? No. That's four years of college (or more), student debt, and all your career-advancing effort down the drain.

You can advocate anonymously but those days are quickly coming to an end.
