The current far-left is basically Veruca Salt from Charlie and the Chocolate FactoryThe era of acceptance has come with a very large, undeniable downside: it's not appropriate to question things. That's how the dark ages happened... At one time, criticism was something we all had to deal with, founded or not.

Okay, great. Let's question and criticize things you're saying.

The suicide rates among trans people aren't a coincidence, and only worsen following the operation.

Any sources on this? There's limited cohort studies on trans persons, and those that I know of aren't able to make the conclusion you've just stated, because it's particularly difficult to find matched populations to make such a comparison. For example, age and lifetime suicide attempts co-vary, as do age and transition progress. This could lead to a naive conclusion that transition is a causal factor for suicide attempts if that isn't taken into consideration.
