Weird, all I've ever heard about is how high the suicide rate is among trans people, nothing about murder rate.
Also weird to consider "trans rights are human rights" to be nihilistic (Political belief or action that advocates or commits violence or terrorism without discernible constructive goals)
Edit: I meant as in trans people murdering other people. Trans people are overwhelmingly victims of violence than perpetrators
Meanwhile, my previous professor received death threats that they "need to be lynched" for refusing to mourn him. They were also fired for stating they won't mourn him.
edit for clarity
What a weird choice to replace Charlie. Like, the man used to be gay until conservatives turned on him over it, he's catholic, worked for Nick Fuentes (Kirk's nemesis) and Ye, and he's not even American.

You don't have to take my word when Wikipedia exists :) I think this version must be popular with older folks, I have a boomer prof who writes them as shown in the OP image
The & symbol they wrote looks like a three I guess. It's saying that "two Black men were lynched &..."
I'm not here to downplay those problems in China. They are serious. But, that's not the government saying they don't care about children, it's saying that they have their own racist and bigoted political problems.
And, if you've paid any attention, the US is doing really similar things and has been for a long time. We made some progress with the Civil rights movement, but we still have Black people arrested at 2x the rate of white, 37% of the prison pop is Black while they only represent 13% of the general pop. The education system has all but erased the cultural roots of Black Americans, and God forbid a Black teen uses slang to communicate. Most of the sectioning off of voting areas in the US is to minimize their and other minority's voting power. For now it's still legal to say "Hey this influencer really made life bad for me, and I'm okay with him being dead", but it may not remain legal for long. EPA regulations are being dissolved, but the biggest problems will affect traditionally/forced Black neighborhoods.
Where are you getting the idea that the government in China doesn't care about their children?
Hey man, you're the one that brought up rules. But while we're talking about international rules, gene editing of embryos and their descendants is legal in the US if it's privately funded. And it's not illegal internationally to do so
Also, I'd be less worried about CRISPR specifically for this use, because it's not always accurate, is limited in what it can actually do, and there are better gene editing tools now
But our side has rules, you assume they play by the rules.
China academia has the same problem that US academia has: publish or perish.
And seriously, you can't say something like that and ignore all the BS the US government has been pulling internationally for decades. Trump murdered 14 random people on boats that weren't even in US territory, and seemingly no one on the international stage gives a shit
Sounds like it would go great with a vodka martini
