Millions, if not tens of millions, and perhaps soon to be hundreds of millions of people despise who they are to such a degree that they are willing to mutilate themselves to escape the nature of their own being. And having an innate, albeit buried understanding of how foolish this really is, they then seek a platform to convince others to do the same so they might feel more convinced that their decision is rational, arguing that the cowardly act of fleeing from your own self is actually an act of great courage.
And so, millions of children, who are trying to discover who they are in this world, and who like the idea of being thought of as brave, begin to wonder if they really are who they knew they were yesterday, and what might be in it for them if they convince themselves they're not.
No one thinks that transphobia is fear of a random confused person in the street. It is the fear of a poisonous and destructive ideology that is leading to great suffering among the people and insane amounts of suicides and family traumas. There is no shame in being afraid of that.
We lost a great scientist because he doesn't like Frankenstein people.

Last link, but putting this all here since you got me thinking.
I don't need convincing that there is an agenda at work, and that things are pretty dire right now. But if you don't mind some constructive criticism - you won't help any of these confused people by insulting them. In my experience, it is difficult enough to get someone who is holding an irrational position to see sense even when you are speaking to them on the same level, human to human. If you make them feel like they are less than you are, their response is undoubtedly going to be to double down on their belief and decide you're nothing more than a bully who isn't worth listening to.
If I was a councilor I would let them judge me on that level, but I am the last person anyone suffering from gender dysphoria should approach for help.
You don't need a certificate to be a counsellor. You just need a sound mind and a bit of empathy.
I am not going to be paid for my time, and don't believe in free labor / slavery.
The enslavement of our species to the Trans agenda is the issue I would be more concerned about, we have always been free to modify our bodies, insecure people are just making it trendy with the law on their side.
Kinda how like Big Tech made censoring political content trendy and had laws passed to exempt them from damages others would have been penalized for causing.
