1-emboldening people who already have that bias leads to an uprise in harassment and attacks. Nobody is saying "my cousin was a wonderful person, then he saw that special and goes out murdering trans people" and you fucking know nobody is saying that.
2-as a trans person who has faced harassment and violence in the past, kindly LISTEN to the people LIVING THESE EXPERIENCES when they tell you they happen.

oh and 3-don't fucking equate us to anti-vaxers like holy shit
