Trans people being loved and accepted is actually really bad for them. Because a fundamental part of trans liberation is universal healthcare.
Imagine if the vast majority of americans had high opinions of trans people, stories about trans people being unable to transition because of our healthcare system would spread like wildfire. The news would report on it because it would get clicks.
The dems have to say they care about trans folks because they have to pretend to be moral. Secretly they must love that this is a wedge issue where simply not calling for genocide gets them votes.
Their idiology is the status quo, stability without humanity. They will never change any system if they can avoid it.
I despise these ghoulish psycopaths.
No one will be free until all of us are free
Their world is dying and our compassion will outlast it. Their greed is no match for our solidarity, I love you my comrades.

I think this definitely aligns w also a major confusion most people have and is intentionally insidious when opportunistically manipulated by Dems. Trans liberation always means universal healthcare. The right for any human to have full sovereignty and health over their body that we currently do not have. As far as a political movement with actionable demands, this stands by and large as the biggest and central tenet and demand of trans liberation as an effective political movement.
Most people are confused about what a trans person even is and subsequently don't particularly care about any opposition to trans people's existence. But if universal healthcare can be championed as the demand and desire of trans people at large, unity can be created with even the bulk of the middle masses confused about trans people.
It's difficult concept because it implies that freedom requires a community of eager participation, rather than a freedom afforded in a sterile alienating market.
How do you convey to an American that "freedom" is more synonymous with "family" than "independence"?
