They are simply fuelled by incuriosity, discomfort and embarassment, not to mention distrust. But I feel sorry for their leader. It seems once she didn't have a problem, and something hit. Her mother is a publisher who constantly laughs at and belittles trans people. So maybe it runs in the family.
It just feels that while I believe that pronouns and stuff are a lesser issue than some make out to be, that these people are being ignroant for the sake of it, falling into the trap of hailing dead youtuber Magdalen Berns, simply cos she can't speak back. I wonder do any of us know her former 'trans friends' and wonder what they think about it.
