Explain to me like I am a literal 5 year old. What is the hate towards Trans people? Is it just because they a different? Did they do something to garner the hate? I was raised different and change... (lemmy.world)

Are good. And accepting the weird or different was the way to go.

I get what you're saying, but I disagree. The (male) people I see hating on trans people can just as easily hate any group they're not part of. They hate homosexuals because they think every gay person will try to have sex with them, they hate blacks because they steal your job due to DEI, they hate muslims because they're all terrorists, they hate disabled people because they don't contribute to society, and they hate trans people because it confuses them. They can always find a reason (not through their own critical thinking skills though) to hate anyone.

They can always ~~find~~ be fed a reason by their handlers (not through their own critical thinking skills though) to hate anyone.
