Thanks, as always for putting these newsletters together. I have been waiting for them every night this week, now that I've discovered your SubStack. That said, I'm finding the last few pretty demoralizing. It feels like the issue is intensifying and that the TRAs are pushing even harder to ram through their agenda. Add to that, the large number of mainstream people who still naively think that this is just about trans rights and being inclusive, and all I see is the ideology becoming more intrenched.
Does anybody else reading see the situation more optimistically? Perhaps someone who has been at this a little longer than my 5 months has seen a broader shift that is hard for me to see? I would like to have more hope that we will right this ship!
