Putin is nothing like Hitler. He's got no enthusiasm for mass murder,
and there's no obvious evidence that he is zenophobic.

Have you seen what he is doing to transgender people?  That is
zenophobia by another name and is an attempt to kill off a whole section
of the population by withdrawing needed medical treatment.   Medical
websites have been closed to prevent doctors treating their patients.

American history is being re-written to erase anyone suspected of being
transgender.  Families with anyone transgender have been moving away
from certain states for some time, now a 'kindertransport'  organisation
has been set up to get transgender children and adults out of America
before the purges start in ernest.  It's not being publicised in the
gutter press, who are still printing transphobic rants, but it is
happening - in America - now.

Very much so;  politicians driving children to suicide by banning their
health care is something we should all be concerned about.
 

 
The idea that a man who has the appearance of a woman could easily enter
a woman's bathroom and engage in nefarious activities drives even some
of my better-educated American relatives and associate into conniptions
of hand wringing.

It's a primitive fear that is drummed into women from an early age and
it's not uncommon in men either.  As soon as the spectre is raised of a
predatory man being present when you are at your most vulnerable, all
logical thought is suppressed.  That is what they are playing on.

If a man wanted to spy in women, he would not go through all the legal
and medical hoops of pretending to be transgender, he would just get on
and do it.  By conflating predatory men with transgender people they are
using this to try to make life intolerable for an already-vulnerable
group of people.

But that's not what's happening. What we are being asked to swallow is
men who simply "identify" as women being allowed access into all sorts
of areas where they would normally be forbidden. This is the height of
woke madness. Those kind of people have no legal and medical hoops
they're obliged to go through; they just say: "I'm a woman" and
they're good to go!
