    This is pure bullshit. There have been transgender people from at least during WW2 that i know of (im italian, theres an old italian trans woman, whos still alive btw, who served as a soldier during WW2 and she declared herself to be a woman just after the war was over), so way before LGBT rights movements became mainstream. This alone completely refutes this bs that transgenderism is an invention of liberals.

      There has been transgender people way before capitalism was invented. Just search for the priestess of the goddess Asherah as an example. It’s like people always forget that history existed before the Industrial Revolution for some reason when it suits them.

      I’ve read that most human cultures for thousands of years have recognized and accepted multiple genders and gender-fluidity. It wasn’t until European imperialism in the Americas that Indigenous cultures were subjugated and destroyed and bastardized that an artificial gender binary was enforced.
