I can not fathom how a person can be both transgender and MAGA.

That's a special level of self hating cognitive dysfunction so outside the laws of common sense and reality, that it warps local time-space so that its head and its ass join together as a flesh bound Klein bottle.

Oh, apparently this involves people like Buck Angel.
Yeah, that man has been a head/ass Klein bottle for ages.
What a laboratory-grade ass nugget.

Wow, OK, that article kind of sucked.
The basic gist of it is this:
Why do trans people embrace MAGA?
1) They hold some form of bigoted belief that is publicly/openly challenged by others.
2) Rather than engage in self-reflection and reconsider their bigotry, they double down and seek the company of other bigots among the right wing.
3) They receive approval from right wing bigots and are pulled deeper into fascism and hate because it makes their egos feel better.

4) They seek the tiny subgroups of other trans people on the far right for a big happy pity party because people challenged their hate, and they congratulate each other on being extra special masters of the universe. Then they decide to help the right exterminate other trans people and other marginalized groups.
Conclusion: We need to be nicer to bigots in the transgender community because the bruised egos of bigots serves as a gateway drug to fascism.
Then End

[cue credits]I'm sorry, but I"m not going to be nicer to bigots.
Someone is going to call them out on their shit at some point, and if they were so fucking self-centered and fragile that this means they'll pull on jackboots and singing praise for fascists, I don't think there was much that could be done for them in the first place.

Hey do you remember all of the stubborn misogyny and racism among New Atheists a while back?
Well, people started to call out the bigots on their terrible views and they whined about how unfair and irrational that was.
And then they gradually drifted toward the far right. It took the better part of the decade, but that's where they wound up.

Oh, and sexual harassment and sexual assault of women by a number of the bigger names of New Atheism was NOT uncommon.
And when those guys were exposed as rapey abusers? They went hard right and found a new grift over there.
It's not like this pattern of hurt bigots and abusers leaving progressive and marginalized spaces and heading for the right is a new pattern. This seems to be a thing that bigots and abusers do.

@timberwraith If only they'd left earlier, because before they found their new grift they drove a lot of good people away.

@pzmyers @timberwraith They also attracted a lot of spotlight seeking bad-actors. It was a double dose of poison.
