I want to say it's basically a nothingburger, but at this point...who knows. Feels to me like a strictly online thing that's bleeding into real life. Because I doubt very many people outside of Twitter and etc. honestly give a shit about even half of this, but people are getting so worked up over the controversies online (e.g. Hogwarts Legacy) that it's becoming a tangible thing.

In other words it's all bark and no bite, there's no trans uprising, just your average ordinary mentally ill person.

I do believe if trannies can get more children to become trannies it supports their cause no?

Yes, but to what degree are they successful? Statistics say that transgender people only make up less than one percent of the US population at the most. So even if they do manage to convert a lot of kids, they're still a hilariously small portion of the population.

That's not much of an uprising to me, maybe if they get into double digits then we should really get worried. They make an awful lot of noise and have an outsized influence online, but data shows they still pale in comparison to ordinary folks in sheer numbers.
