I say this because, the very nature of the culture war is for it to serve as a Distraction. It's not that Trans people having their rights stripped from them is just a simple distraction, it's that describing it as just being part of the culture war, only makes it seems as though it's some lighthearted 'pwning the Libs'/the 'other side winning', which, imo, only serves to passify concerns surrounding issues like, ya' know, Trans People having rights.
It's also because we only end up buying into frameworks that reactionaries thrive in, because they know the 'Culture War' is one of the only ways for them to gain any political influence.
