America: where 18 years old is old enough to go die in some foreign land because the rulers want oil, but where you're belittled and called a kid and people argue against your rights because you dared to make your own legal medical decisions that will make you happier and don't effect anybody else.
It's utterly disgusting that what is essentially propaganda and lies have convinced so many people here that trans people are some evil instead of just normal people who want the right to be themselves. Fuck conservatism, it's a poison.
