What nonsense. Americans love to ignore their own history. You would think a country with Jim Crow laws until the 1960's would understand the basic concept of how white supremacy can and does influence a society. The degree to which it does or doesn't exist is certainly up for debate but honestly you'd think reading some of the responses in this thread it's a complete fabrication.
OP started this with "Twitter employee .... believes "
Lost all the credit after that.

Just look at the reactions of lefties when Trump won the election. They cried and were devastated because they thought that the Trump regime would put them into concentration camps. Trump even did a speach shortly after the election and welcomed all the transwhatever people. But conveniently the left media just ignored that one.
It doesnt matter who said it and who you can quote on that. Fact is, the left thinks all these stupid things about Trump.
I'd also add things like a better environment - things like leaded gas reduced IQ by several points and predicted criminal behavior, or endocrine disruptors which may be causing the decrease in testosterone, but others might plausibly disrupt hormones that lead to violent behavior.
The flame bait is heavy with this one.
It is pretty reasonable to ban trans people from the military. They have a suicide rate of 40% and that makes them per definition mentally sick. You dont want mentally sick people handling heavy arms and shit.
Also that is pretty much the only thing. They dont have to pay extra taxes, they dont get deported, they dont have to sit in the back of the bus. Its noting compared to what lefties thought would happen.
Like what, exactly? What law or barrier is there that prevents people X from succeeding while not impeding or favouring Y?

And right now the left wing is pushing legislation all across the country that legalizes bigotry against religious beliefs under the guise of respecting the LGBTQ community.
Look mommy, I can do it too!
As I said: regardless of the merits of the policy, how do you argue that the military ban and the possible removals of healthcare protections is outweighed by Trump cluelessly waving around a flag (in terms of "welcoming" trans people)?

Why does there need to be a law when some basic stats show average rates are different for different groups of people?

Except you can't do this.
You can't say "regardless of what makes the policy good" thus ignoring the whole point of the policy.

Because that doesn't proves anything as those different rates could very well be the product of different choices.
Are you against free will and free choices?
Except I can actually back up my statement with facts. You can't.
Texas SB-17: Makes it legal for any licensed professional to refuse service to LGBTQ people on the grounds of "sincerely held religious beliefs".
Tennessee HB 836: Makes it legal for adoption agencies to deny LGBTQ potential parents the right to adopt children due to "sincerely held religious beliefs".
Mississippi HB 1523: Literally a direct violation of Obergefell v. Hodges, the supreme court case that legalized same sex marriage nationally, and the reason it will be struck down in court.
Weird that all these bills include the phrase "sincerely held religious beliefs". Almost like they were all written by the same people despite being in three different states. Oh right, because they were.BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI:
SECTION 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the "Protecting Freedom of Conscience from Government Discrimination Act."
SECTION 2. The sincerely held religious beliefs or moral convictions protected by this act are the belief or conviction that:
(a) Marriage is or should be recognized as the union of one man and one woman;
(b) Sexual relations are properly reserved to such a marriage; and
(c) Male (man) or female (woman) refer to an individual's immutable biological sex as objectively determined by anatomy and genetics at time of birth.
