Why are the TRAs hiding behind blacks even though most of the prominent people on their ranks are middle class and white?

This is a rhetorical question, by the way, because I know exacly why: they're trying to paint themselves as opressed to gain credibility with the public.

The thing is: everyone and their mother who are following this subject knows that the current wave of mass trooning is a very middle class and white phenomenon, so who they think they're fooling?

so who they think they're fooling?

Uninvolved middle class white liberals. It's part of an actual strategy advised by a law centre to tie trans issues to black civil rights, and they've even acknowledged it will make them unpopular (or even more so) amongst black people

...and for that reason, every black should be roaring disapproval 24/7, because their position is being cheapened.

The "Gender" snake-oil salesmen are trying to elevate delusions, lifestyle choices and behaviors that do not and never will rise to the level of "immutable characteristics" used to confer 'protected-class' status in a civil-rights sense.

That's right: Race, National Origin, and sex are what you're born with and can't change. Those are the bases for real civil-rights, not "voluntary activism".

And yes, I've seen the sleazy Wikipedia version adding perceived to the definition of "immutable [characteristic]".

"Perceiving" something that objectively doesn't exist is called a delusion, which also applies to the "gender-dysphoric".
