How did Britain become so psychotically transphobic? I feel like it wasn't this bad 10 years ago. Conservative lobbying?

The Guardian published a bunch of TERF shit by Hadley Freeman 6-7? years ago and that made it acceptable to the centrist mainstream. Genuinely

A theory that kinda makes sense to me is that a TERFy brand of second wave feminism took root culturally here and spread throughout the establishment.

I almost get the feeling its not actually that much worse than anywhere else, looking at photos from terf rallies from the uk, they have a similar attendance to those in aus (and aus has 40mil less people)

At least healthcare is apparently little more accessible here, but I was still stuck jumping through hoops for months.
