    Cis people should be scared about this too. Things like supplementing estrogen (for woman after they have gone through menopause) or testosterone is a quite normal thing. Im betting my ass, that this regulations will affect these things too.

        Until they move the in-group. Which they’ll do if they continue to get their way. They have to keep projecting power like this to keep this up, and they’ll continue to grind through subgroups of the population to do it.

        The in-group is wide enough that the people at the edges are hit with the splatter when the guy at the top takes another dump.

        If he makes it illegal to even provide estrogen or testosterone to patients, hospitals won’t stock it.

        You’re not wrong, but you forgot that the in-group always shrink.

        Also, it is usual for fascists to throw others “under the bus” as a way to save their own face.
