In what other context is it permissible to casually blame someone’s suicide on others? It’s generally accepted that it’s inappropriate to threaten suicide to someone you are/were in a relationship with or related to. So why is it OK to hold a group of people accountable for the suicide of someone they’ve never met and never interacted with or threaten them with the prospect that some other unknown person they have no duty of care to whatsoever will commit suicide? Much less do this to an entire demographic of people!

But also . . . where else does this come up? We don’t tell people that any other minority or demographic “will kill themselves if you/don’t do X.” I don’t really hear gay people talked about in this way either, but maybe the woke do now? It’s just such a serious thing to be so casual about. The fact that it’s tolerated and promoted at the highest levels is crazy.

Even worse, suicide is contagious. Suicide is an idea that when discussed inappropriately can be put in someone’s head and turned into an action. So arguably they’re causing more suicides by promoting the narrative that “Trans people will kill themselves if you do/don’t do X.” You’re giving them a script. This is something we need to call out more. Be firm and unequivocal. Give people the tools to realize this is a way in which trans gets special treatment no other demographic gets, and let them think about why that is in trying to justify it.
