   The majority of women I know personally through this issue are left wing. A few are centre right, but socially liberal (pro-gay marriage, women's right to choose etc.)

   Til my dying day I'll never understand why so many on the left couldn't see gender identity ideology was homophobic, misogynistic, dangerously authoritarian, quasi-religious and anti-science, or how they could shrug off real world consequences such as vulnerable young people being subject to unevidenced and irreversible medical interventions, single sex spaces being decimated, women's rights rolled back. Living through this insanity has made me truly understand how things like lobotomies and witch hunts, which we look back on in disbelief, not only started but persisted.

     @jk_rowling It happened because people are tribal and aligned with those who told them what *good* people ought to think. If there are *good* people, them there must be *bad* people - the ones who don't agree with the *good* people.
