Not my usual kind of source (Xitter), but I want any centrists out there who ask trans people to "just get along" / compromise with actual hate groups that want them eradicated to know that it doesn't work.

There is no such thing as a reasonable bigot, by definition.

In my worldview, the drugs would not have a gatekeeper. They would in available OTC. You should not have your "ethical autonomy" compromised at all. (And yes, it does count for nothing compared to bodily autonomy.)

If your reason (for not providing the drugs) was only protecting yourself or others from State-backed violence, it could be justified. But, you claimed you would do it because you know better how to manage a patient's body than themselves.
