Yes.

But also, this isn’t a real thing happening on any scale greater than literally one person.

This is one of those things that weirdo trans-fixated dumbasses on Twitter probably found one instance of happening and because “immigrant bad! (But not me!) transgender bad! Government spending bad!” to right wingers, it’s something to pump forever with no significant pushback from the democrats. Great country. Wow. (now all of that is firmly shared by both pro-capitalist right wing US parties. They used to pretend to care about the first, half-ass acknowledgement of the second, and, well, they’ve always been against government spending. Since Dipshit Carter anyway)
