“Trans women are biological females”, “Hormones and surgery change biology” It’s both worrisome and sad that they truly seem to believe the BS they spew

Unfortunately this could be a mad libs for everything trans today. People complain about some outrageous activities a random TRA is doing and the response is always "why do you hate trans people?"

No they are mad a man wearing flesh tone underwear is in a miniskirt in front of 5 yr olds.

A lot of this is a distraction though. Yeah it's tasteless and abhorrent to turn on the TV to see some bizarre penile piano performance, but it begs the question, why are you watching that crap to begin with?

Some wildly inappropriate performance is not suitable for broadcast television, but this shit thrives on attention and we are giving a lot of it. If this guy performed to an audience of zero would he still do it? If we spend our time outraged about some retarded television performer does that distract us from actually getting the political ball rolling to ban this sort of stuff from the schools or to prevent doctors from performing surgeries or prescribing hormones to minors?

We need to be deliberate in how we choose to expend our energy. We can't waste time getting outraged by every rediculous thing they do. We gotta go straight for the heart.

What's on TV is a bit different from things they do in person.

But in regards to your point, I've hated "reality TV" since almost the beginning. Like when "The Real World" (season 1) came out on MTV i did think it was pretty interesting as a unique concept. I realized pretty quickly that "Road Rules" was far more interesting because the people actually had tasks to overcome instead of just sitting around being dramatic.

The infinite spin offs were just more and more shit and I found "RuPaul's" to be just as bad as everything else. It felt like friends and family were all in on the useless drama though and I just found it incredibly annoying that they would turn on the TV to watch this stuff as a choice. RuPaul's in particular brothered me because it feels like the media force diverted the zeitgeist of the gay community to be a full on caricature of what unfriendly straights used to pretend we were.
