Cis society coerces and brainwashes trans kids into ways of being that it chooses, against our wills and our inclinations, and it does so before we can even have a say in what happens to us.

And THEN, cis people hold us responsible for the impact of the abuse they subject us to. Some even call it a "privilege."

They refer to their coercive manipulation of us as "socialization" when in reality, it's systematic torture and deformation of a person's being.

There's a direct through-line from prejudicial ideologies of anti-trans cis feminism of decades past and much of the anti-trans rhetoric of the right wing. The right appropriated those ideas and language for themselves.

So propaganda, yeah, that makes the most sense since it's the most cruel version of why it came about.

Even for cis kids, especially perhaps for cis kids (because they don't want trans kids to exist, so they're going to gear their abuses towards the kids they think matter), it's a wide variety of tortures and abuses which are geared towards dehumanization. Remove the impulses which let us be happy and healthy people, just so that we can be neat and efficient little cogs which fit nicely into the Machine. A Machine which includes women-as-things and men-as-abusers.

I do wonder where the idea came from? Was it purely some theory/propaganda bullshit or was there some toxic Trans person who (unlike the other 99%) was just being a fuckwit and the fall out from it ranslated into all this Karen'ing?

Don't let the bastards tell you that you're responsible for the effects of their fuckery.
