Gentlemen and (allegedly) ladies of Kiwi Farms, by being here I'm sure we're all very educated on the Incel-to-Trans pipeline. However, I have an interesting theory I'd like to propose that goes a little further, that I have dubbed the Troon-to-ruin pipeline. In King's English, it consists of this: Any trans person placed into a position of power will eventually turn their community into their personal autocratic brothel. It's worth noting that this pipeline is not just relegated to Discord, but can extend to imageboards, forums, or any community based in the Internet.
Let's discuss the basic flow of how this pipeline goes.
With the outline explained, let's talk about prevention strategies you can employ as a community member or community server/forum/etc. owner.
How to prevent this pipeline if you are an owner:
Obviously, the most straightforward fix is to simply be anti-trans. If you don't invite the beast in, it won't harm you. Now, you may be part of a community that does not allow for that for marketing or other reasons, and to which end I recommend employing EXTREME CAUTION in your selection of any form of moderation. Anyone who is taking under-the-counter or even black market drugs to change their body irreversibly may not be a solid judge of character, or create conflicts of interest in your community. And of course, anyone who has watched so much porn that they've deluded themselves into thinking they're the opposite gender are likely not much better. You may not have many good choices, but if this person is openly transgender, a great place to start is to ask them what made them realize they were trans - This gets the ball rolling towards an answer you may not like. Many trans people only started believing this delusion because of things like peer pressure, incorrectly diagnosed mental conditions, porn addiction, or no reason at all. If their answer is anything other than "My doctor says I have a chromosomal disorder", it's basically disaster waiting to happen.
How to prevent this pipeline if you are a community member:
Lol, lmao. Realistically, there is very little you can do, outside of just avoiding hotspots of Troonery altogether. Thankfully, there is always an option if you have found yourself in a community that's aggressively trans: Make your own community space without trans people. If you want to totally avoid transgenderism in your community, I would heavily encourage looking into ways to turn it into an IRL event - The only thing a trans person seems to hate more than people not giving them the asspats they want is direct sunlight.
How to prevent a late-stage infestation:
The most dangerous concept to a person who is delusional is the truth, or a variation of the truth they don't agree with. Basically, you have to either make it clear that trans people are not special, or otherwise ensure that they are regularly exposed to ideas outside their space on equal ground as their own. Here's an example:
Discuss various aspects, contributing statements, or anything you think agrees or disagrees with this statement. I will also take questions to corroborate my theory.
Let's discuss the basic flow of how this pipeline goes.
- A trans person enters your community.
Dave is a member of the official Sonichu's Grand Adventure Community Discord, which is run by Mark, the community manager for Sonichu's Grand Adventure. One day, a new member joins - Their name is Amanda, and they're a self-identified MtF Transgender. The community is cordial and treats Amanda with the same respect they'd treat any other human being. Dave doesn't have any issue with Trans people - In fact, Dave hasn't ever met a Trans person before at all - and he interacts with Amanda just like everyone else. They're a little weird, but it's nothing of real consequence.
- The distant leaders of your community virtue signal.
Unbeknownst to Dave or anyone else in the Community Discord, the server owner Mark makes some vague statements in passing, mentioning that Sonichu's Grand Adventure is a game for men, women, children, and anyone else who wants to play it. Amanda is overjoyed, and tells all their trans and ally friends that Sonichu's Grand Adventure is a game for Trans and Enbie folx by showing off Enbychu, a brand new heckin' wholesome supporting character that may be trans. Amanda's friends Lillith, Clara, and other MtFs all pile into the Sonichu's Grand Adventure Community Discord. Mark is stoked that his server is getting so much attention, but he's going to need more moderators. Dave is a little nonplussed by the sudden trans influx, but it doesn't bug him too much. Lillith and Clara are also weird, and Dave thinks Clara's taste in pornography is a bit public for his liking. But it's just one person, right?
- Trans people assume a position of power.
With Amanda and co. spreading the good word about Sonichu's Grand Adventure to their corner of the Internet, the Community Discord needs a new team of moderators. Mark needs someone who's on often, knows a lot about the game, and gets along with everyone. After some deliberation, he picks Amanda: Amanda meets all the criteria as an unemployed, terminally online loser whose autistic hyperfixation is Sonichu's Grand Adventure. Dave knows a lot about Sonichu's Grand Adventure as well, but unlike Amanda, he has a job, and can't always be around to maintain the peace. As such, the decision is clear.
- Infestation.
Within weeks, the Sonichu's Grand Adventure Community Discord has a moderation staff that's 90% trans people. Amanda now runs the Sonichu Community Discord with an iron fist, and anyone who doesn't agree that Enbychu is a trans icon(despite the developers making no concrete statements either way) are banned by Amanda personally or one of their cronies. Clara has started an NSFW channel for no explicable reason, and posts there nearly hourly. One day, Dave makes an off-hand remark about how Sonichu's arms have always been skin colored, and Lillith gets mad, saying that Sonichu's arms have ALWAYS been yellow. Dave tries his best to de-escalate, but Lillith is both A) Autistic and B) on a cocktail of anti-depressants and HRT, making him prone to emotional outbursts. Dave is banned for "Transphobia" shortly afterwards, after Dave says "dude calm down". The ban is final.
- Ruin.
The Sonichu's Grand Adventure Community Discord is now a transgender haven, and anyone who does not suck girlcock unconditionally is banned outright. Clara starts uploading a concerning amount of Loli/Shotacon porn and some custom-commissioned art of in-game characters that are minors. Mark is in it deep now: His community that started as a quiet get-together for people who played Sonichu's Grand Adventure is now a hotspot for trans people, pedophiles, and groomers. He's had some concerned DMs from users saying that one or even multiple of the moderators are trying to groom minors in the server. He can't outright disown the moderation team, because it would torpedo his game's reputation. He also can't seem to get rid of these damn trannies and the filth that they bring in with them. Mark can't risk the reputation of Sonichu's Grand Adventure by getting rid of the entire moderation team, but he's now in a great amount of controversy - The kind that ends in prison time.

At Stage 2, Mark makes a few comments regarding Enbychu's vague non-gendered status, and Amanda squees over trans representation. Mark recognizes that maybe he went a little bit too far, and quickly reconfirms(After talking with the game developers) that Enbychu is in fact biologically female, but trans people are still welcome to play Sonichu's Grand Adventure. There is a brief outcry on Xitter about "Transphobic game developers" by a few of the more vocal lunatics, and then everything returns to normal. When Amanda invites their friends to play, Clara and Lillith call it a "transphobe game made by bigots" and do not approach.
Mark doesn't say anything about trans rights at all, intentionally remaining ambivalent about whether or not Sonichu's Grand Adventure's development team is pro-trans. Trans people come and go, but Mark tries to keep the amount of actually trans moderators to a minimum, recognizing the signs of the pipeline. That, and he really fucking hates trannies.

After getting banned, Dave makes his own Sonichu's Grand Adventure Unofficial Community Discord, and sets firm guidelines about freedom of speech. This turns some people away, concerned that it's going to become a haven for people who are based less respected members of their community. However, despite a few scrapes, Dave's Unofficial Community Server flourishes, and Mark sometimes swings by to ask for advice on situations in the Official Community Discord. Amanda joins, recoils from the rules, and promptly bans and blocks anyone who is in both servers.
Dave also is one of the founding members of the Sonichu's Ground Adventure meetup, where various players are encouraged to meet IRL and Zap To The Extreme!(within reason). This encourages many players who would otherwise remain inside to feel sunlight and wind on their faces, and overall is a resounding success. One of Amanda's cohorts shows up, and after making a scene, is requested to leave.

Here's an example:
Back at Stage 3, Mark recognizes that Amanda is definitely qualified, but also recognizes that Amanda may not be totally impartial. As a result, Mark also appoints Dave as a moderator with equal privileges. Dave may not be on as much, but Dave is impartial and will ensure that Amanda can't run the server however they want. Amanda makes a few trans memes that mock the death of a cisgendered person, and Dave takes Amanda aside and tells them not to do that. When the server grows again, Dave recognizes that Amanda is recommending a number of trans people to the moderation staff, and rightly recognizes this as a conflict of interest, not to mention that Clara shared cropped porn in the general discussion last week. Lillith and Clara are not made moderators.
Discuss various aspects, contributing statements, or anything you think agrees or disagrees with this statement. I will also take questions to corroborate my theory.
