The irony is that WPATH is shit. There are a ton of lazily incompetent mistakes in the SoC, many of which had been pointed out well in time to be fixed for the current edition. It's old white cis men defending their reputations at the expense of trans people's healthcare.

Every accusation and all that. Conservatives have spent every fucking second of their lives playing victim. They're victims of gay people being able to get married. They're victims of Black people being in movies. They're victims of mask mandates. Of vaccines. Of immigration. Of cancelation....

Worse, this report blatantly winks and laughs that they're plotting and committing a genocide while claiming they're not - as if propaganda like this could ever be the precursor for anything else.

One mechanism by which clinical content may translate into violence permission deserves note. Trans-Genocide Belief—the perceived likelihood that a genocide of individuals that identify as transgender is currently underway in the United States—is predicted to more strongly relate to CGAS and LWA than to political identity and to be associated with elevated justification for political violence. This prediction is consistent with broader research showing that perceived threat, existential threat, and collective victimhood can increase support for hardline, punitive, or exclusionary action against outgroups, particularly when paired with authoritarian dispositions or strong moral conviction (Armaly & Enders, 2022; Carriere et al., 2022; Hirschberger et al., 2016; Kljajić et al., 2025; Schori-Eyal et al., 2014; Skitka, 2010). Related work on moralization and violent intergroup conflict further suggests that when a political conflict is framed as a moral emergency involving dangerous or demonized outgroups, violence can come to seem permissible or necessary (Mooijman et al., 2018; Saguy & ReifenTagar, 2022).

The survey which underpins this "report" is built entirely on a solution in search of manipulated & manufactured evidence. They were always going to conclude, in their words: "gender ideology may function as an ideological accelerant [and] predicts support for coercive and violent political action.”

Survey question from the anti-trans HHS report:

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,
