npub1zdp33shl69xr0uq3x8n5gsjykq9upycwh6nqm02c3f6x0frrn0dq42vqv8 (npub1zdp…vqv8) I think that's a hard one for many people because they have trouble understanding there's a difference between what actually exists and what they know about. A few decades ago there wasn't much talk about trans people, and it was something that many people hadn't heard about (I'm Gen X, so at one point it was a new concept for me too), but of course trans people existed, it's just that they were marginalized to the point of invisibility, at least in Western societies. Instead of realizing this, many people think it's a recent "invention", and if that's so there must be someone who invented it and, for some evil reason, is indoctrinating society. Which seems silly if one thinks that by that same logic before the law of Universal Gravitation was formulated particles didn't attract each other with a force that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
