The Trans industry is about getting as much money out of these vulnerable, and mentally unwell, people as possible. If I recall correctly, each trans person, when accounting for surgeries, hormones, and anything else they may get (i.e. voice training) constitutes anywhere from 100k to 150k in net profit in their lifetimes - this number may be higher but may be artificially limited since so many trans commit neck rope before natural end of life.
The trans pipeline is also the politically correct way of stopping people on the autism spectrum from reproducing.
Edit:
A significant portion of youth that I know these days - I'm speaking about almost exclusively adolescent girls - are going through the fujoshi to "trans bean boi" pipeline. Many are involved in anime subcultures. Not all, but many. I know of one adolescent girl - very tall, 188cm - who is adamant she be called by her trans name "Kai" at all times and goes through an effort to present as masculine. She's involved in at least one anime subculture that I'm aware of where the two main characters are veiled to be gay, but it's never explictly stated they are.
Make no mistake with my words. There's nothing wrong with presenting as masculine. I think that everyone would do well to have a certain balance of masculine and feminine in their lives as they see fit (inb4 hippy-dippy ying-yang comparisons); but I think you need to be older to really get a true and honest grasp of how you present yourself to the world - rather than just reading yaoi of fictional male characters getting all fluffy and deciding you want that to be your life - as a trans man, that is. Totally can't present as masculine and be a woman in <CURRENT YEAR>, you know. Or be a straight woman with masculine tendencies. Totally off-limits.
Another woman I know, 23 or 24 now, family friend, was absolutely gorgeous. Well defined all around, took care of herself and was on track to become a biomedical engineer at a prestigious pharma company.
I saw her by chance last year in November 2020 and she had shaved her head and gained a significant amount of weight - and also had a girlfriend. I won't and can't make any jumps in logic, but something is going on with
people in Western society - men and women. What's causing such a drastic and dramatic shift in the youth? What is the root cause? Is there a root cause, or is it multiple sources of shifting? Or is it autism, plain and simple?
I will never know what goes on in their private conversations or lives, but there's something significantly wrong going on, and I don't think it has to do with the liberalization of "sex education" in public schools. Remember,
queer theory is inherently rooted in pedophilia and always will be.
Should any society normalize pedophilia, the society will burn. Slow.
