You might be surprised to find out how many people oppose the transgender agenda
Washington Examiner ^ | June 7, 2023 | Christopher Tremoglie

Bud Light , North Face , Lia Thomas , radical gender ideology, and Pride month have dominated news headlines over the last year or so. It’s enough to make people think society has transitioned, pun intended, to a new set of cultural norms regarding transgenderism. Left-wing extremists have bombarded the population with propaganda to trick the country into believing the ridiculous notion that men can become women and vice versa. However, according to a recent poll, their efforts aren’t working, and most people oppose the transgender agenda.

A new survey from Rasmussen Reports revealed that approximately 7 out of 10 adults, 71%, support the idea that “there are only two genders, male and female.” This included 57% of respondents who said they “strongly agree” with the statement. It shows that most people “trust the science” pertaining to the differences between men and women. This also means less than 30% of the country supports the transgender agenda.

Furthermore, most people do not support providing hormone therapy to minors. Rasmussen reported that 62% of people support laws prohibiting “sex-change surgery on minors, including 46% who Strongly Approve of such laws.” The poll showed that 59% of people “approve of laws making giving hormone replacement therapy to minors illegal.” The results are an encouraging sign of normalcy and sanity at a time when radical left-wing marketing executives have seemingly hijacked the country’s popular culture.

Another important aspect of this is that Democrats repeatedly cite public opinion polls when trying to defend their platforms and political initiatives. Whether it is President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), or House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), more often than not, they flaunt public opinion polls whenever the results support their ideas but reject and ignore them when the data go against them. If Democrats actually embraced their own logic and standards, they would stop trying to force something on people that they don’t support.

These poll results are vital because they show why there is so much effort in pushing the radical transgender agenda. Fooling throngs of people under the guise of equality, what these radicals really seek is a cultural reckoning. They want to sabotage our culture and force their extremist ideas on everyone. Most importantly, they want everyone to surrender to their left-wing ideals and principles. It’s up to the rest of the country to reject these fanatical ideas and preserve our cultural norms and the foundations of science and human civilization.

I oppose the “transgender movement” because the people who SUPPORT the “transgender movement” are clinically insane!

And should be marginalized in EVERY way possible, including incarceration!

“A poll released Friday found a large majority of California likely voters reject the type of gender identity policies that would allow minor children access to transgender medical treatments such as hormone drugs and surgeries.”

“The poll, conducted by SPRY Strategies and sponsored by the Women’s Liberation Front, found 74 percent of likely California voters oppose policies that allow children who claim to be transgender to receive hormone and surgical treatments that could render them sterile.”

These numbers are shockingly lower than I’d expect. But there’s something called contrarianism where if someone says, say, “this is blue,” a contrarian will insist it’s yellow. Maybe contrarianism is more common than I expected. The thing is, in the absence of someone saying “it’s blue” the contrarian will, in the privacy of his mind admit it’s blue. Maybe that’s why the numbers aren’t higher?

It’s more that people don’t understand that “hormone therapy” is sterilization and has all those nasty side effects and also saying “transition” for some being polled don’t understand that means “cutting off the vulva or the willy”

I don’t think the conservative media has done a good job of showing the ILL-consequences of hormone therapy, not to mention what the surgeries actually entail & the life-long repercussions of them. We’ve had some young people who went thru it trying to let people know, but by & large, folks don’t realize how awful this stuff is.

Ummm, that’s NOT good news. The science is completely settled and proven regarding XX and XY genes. There is the rare instance of someone being born with both, but not this “gender fluid” crap.

It should be 100% believe there’s either male or female.

And most likely institutionalized. When you are not in touch with reality you are identified as psychotic

Powerful people support it, the media supports it. Once again, this is something we’re being subjected to, just to prove those with power can do whatever they want.

It's 71%? SEVENTY-ONE?

I'm shocked that it's not 99.999%

The elite brainwashers are done with the beta testing.

Now they just have to spread the mass media and “education” message that folks need to kill themselves to save the planet.

Apparently thirty percent of folks are ready to obey.

Biden’s Pride Month 2023 celebration acclaimed the LGBT community as “the bravest and most inspiring people I have ever known” and an “example” for the world ...

As you read this, think of Normandy Beach, jungles of Vietnam, Benghazi, Mogadishu, Afghanistan 13, the land mines in the Middle East, and the J6 patriots still imprisoned.

THIS bastard and his administration are treasonous abominations.
