Most Americans believe that itās a āproblemā that Republicans are transphobic.
A new YouGov poll asked Americans whether they thought that certain issues were a āproblemā for either party. 44% said that transphobia was āa major problemā among Republicans, and another 24% said they thought it was āa minor problem.ā Only 32% of respondents said it wasnāt a problem.
Transphobia was the second most likely issue to be labeled a problem by respondents, after āhostility toward immigrants.ā āTolerance of political violence,ā āconspiracy thinking,ā āwhite supremacy,ā āhomophobia,ā and āfascismā followed closely behind.
Oddly, 40% of respondents said that ātransgender ideologyā was āa major problemā for Republicans, and another 20% said it was āa minor problem.ā 41% said that they didnāt think it was a problem at all for Republicans.
Conservative mindset is that everything is in a hierarchy, the hierarchy is a Good and Natural thing to exist, and therefore even if youāre not at the top, there Must be someone beneath you. And then trying to make their lives better puts the wrong people in the hierarchy, so they must be stopped. Itās miserably sad I assume.
You donāt need to assume. Itās pretty obvious how pathetic it is even from the outside.
