Pretty much everyone other than the left when talking about migrants from the global south: "don't call them 'migrant children' they all look 17 they could already have kids of their own! Call them ADULT MIGRANTS! You're just misrepresenting them to play for sympathy!"
Same people when a 16 year old trans teen wants top surgery, a surgery similar to cosmetic breast reduction surgery which is done for thousands of cis teens: "the poor babbies! They're taking little kids from the crib and into the O.R. and mutilating them!"
Also, I fail to understand their logic that trans people want to force kids to be trans, so then they can fuck them. Why would a hypothetical diddler wait for that? By that logic, they should be angry at chasers, not trans people specifically.
Oh wait, I forgot, it's not about logic, it's them trying to appeal to the cool kid's club by shitting on a group below them in the totem pole.
For evangelical Christians (which make up a large # of transphobes), they simply believe no one is actually trans and that gender dysphoria isn't "real". Not unlike how they think being gay isn't "real" - and how by the power of Jesus you can overcome those "urges". Though in recent years there's been a number of evangelicals who will concede maybe you might have a same-sex inclination but it's a sin to act on it.

they don't view trans-ing children as a step to abuse, they view it as abuse in itself. to them, violating gender law is a sexual act.
