If discrimination alone is enough to cause trans people to commit suicide, how come we don't see other minority groups(who've faced a lot worse)have higher suicide rates?

Minority groups have it bad? Whites are the most discriminated against, what are you even talking about?

I'm talking about what the media claims.When george floyd died and the media claims how the police discriminate against black people and how they have it bad,yet you don't hear black people committing suicide left and right.Likewise discriminating alone can't be the only reason that trans people have a high suicide rate.

Your argument doesn't make sense. Blacks aren't being discriminated against so why would they commit suicide because of something that doesn't happen?

So do blacks not believe they're targeted by police despite the msm and blm claiming police are after them?For arguments sake even back then black people have had to tolerate everything from slavery to cross burnings to school bombings to different water fountains.You'd think they might have suicided themselves out of existence, but here they are.

If the left hadn't fallen for their own propaganda, the media would be encouraging black people to kill themselves. Because the original plan was to trap black people into relying on the government to keep them powerless and poor, through handouts and welfare, and telling them they can never succeed because society is too racist. Ever wonder why all those old Democrats suddenly went from being racists to being black "advocates"?

And the George Floyd thing made people actually racist against black people.
