There's plenty of topics to talk about all the things you've mentioned. They are routinely discussed. They are different to the topic here, which you seem to think is fine, perhaps because you are intolerant of different opinions yourself? I'm just speculating on that last point of course.

You also went off on one before I said it was a growing problem too btw. I initially highlighted it as a problem.
I don't think it is a problem though, it is a symptom of a society that allows people to think and act freely within a set of laws, some views will be different to yours, some will appear extreme. Some will cross a boundary when it comes to the way they present their views because they feel passionately about them.

Fwiw I have absolutely no skin in the game on trans rights, it is completely beyond me to even formulate an opinion so I just try and avoid it and not upset people. Just because I think you are a plum for falling for obvious government dogwhistling about 'wokeness' doesn't actually mean I agree with what these people are saying, I also probably don't disagree.
