What do you mean?
You know exactly what they mean. They don't understand science past middle school levels, and even then they probably only got a C+. So it's just them trying to not get modded while still denying that trans identities are valid.

depends on your definition of equality, aside from societal treatment most of it is already there, so unless you're trying to lump in stuff like free cosmetic surgeries, government benefits for existing or anything else that falls under the banner of special treatment rather than equality, there's not much to do there, and trans activists have been making huge strides over the past decade when it comes how trans are seen anyway

i'd rather take the money than something that's slowly going to happen regardless

Calling gender affirming surgeries cosmetic IS transphobia. And also not even categorically correct based on insurance standards.

the tl;dr is just that trump overturned obamacare era protections of transgender people. It's a short article tho, you can skim it in like 2 mins

It demonstrates 1 or 2 things. How much CE doesn't care about trans people, and how much they only care about themselves I think. To a large degree. The reasoning if you read through the topic is that it doesn't affect them so they don't care.

Or theyd rather have money over vague concepts of equality they dont understand, that will happen soon regardless. The same topic regarding a minority or women would be interesting.

I'd agree except the "happen soon part". There's too much progress to be made to say it would happen soon
