Thursday on X (Twitter), all users saw the same pinned topic under the “What’s happening?” sidebar. As part of a “timeline takeover” — which gives advertisers “priority access to logged-in users’ first impression of the day” — conservative media nonprofit PragerU is promoting the hashtag “#DETRANS” to advertise its new film about “the stories of detransitioners.”

    The film purports to feature young people who sought gender affirming care, but now regret doing so.

    This isn’t anti-trans

      Out of context, on its own, it wouldn’t be. But if you look at who is pushing it, that changes the picture.

      If a known anti-trans person pushes the media so hard, you can be certain it is anti-trans.

      If you look into the detransitioner movement, it is indeed anti-trans.

          People by their very definition are narrative. If one has ever taken an action that effected another, they are part of ‘the’ narrative.
