It's because the majority of people creating and consuming these memes are either in middle school, or mentally stuck in middle school. Nobody who is well-adjusted is posting to these signal subs.

I have seen (edit: typos) far too many other (young) adults who also consume these memes, lol. On the one hand, I'm inclined to agree with you and say they don't seem well-adjusted, and they often even frankly state that they think they are not.. on the other hand, that's a lot of people...

because if it's not a #relatable horoscope level blanket statement (that explicitly supports the transtrenders, uwu) it will be removed.

Yeah, that's a really good point. In order to talk about experiences accurately you have to be specific, and by nature, some experiences are just ones that not everyone will have. Over-emphasizing inclusivity-- while it sometimes comes from very good intentions-- can then lead to a silencing and dismissal of any content that does not include everybody.
