Right? It&#8217;s that why I said as an adult is because if you&#8217;re a kid and, like, you get fed a lot of propaganda, like, messaging, I feel like every&#8230; so, every trans kid is actually a victim of a parent with a mental illness. That&#8217;s what I believe. You&#8217;ve got a kid that&#8217;s 17, right? I mean, it&#8217;s a little bit more&#8230; it&#8217;s, like, not really as definitive. But, like, if you have a kid that&#8217;s like pre-puberty and they&#8217;re trans, your parents have a mental illness. That&#8217;s it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His comments have since ignited a firestorm of reactions online, with many expressing their outrage. One user on X responded:<br \/>\n&#8220;How f**king dumb. It&#8217;s absolutely possible for a kid to experience some type of gender dysphoria without a parent&#8217;s influence. He&#8217;s just pushing more right-wing bullst.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>How fucking dumb. Its absolutely possible for a kid to experience some type of gender dysphoria without a parent&#8217;s influence.
