Yes, but the backlash is barely beginning. He had this happen to him 17 years ago when you still had to do some therapy before being pushed into this. Meanwhile the peak of trans promotion hysteria was just a few years ago, and we're likely still there on the medical front. I'm terrified of how many people like him, in 10-15 years from now, we (the society) will have to find ways to help deal with the criminal injustice and trauma that was caused to them, because this craze has grown exponentially.
We have only a handful of public facing detransitioners from 10-20 years ago. God only knows how many detransitioners from today we'll have in 10-20 years going forward.

@j Honestly, I'm not particularly convinced it functions as some kind of darwinian selective pressure. I've yet to see something that convinces me there's some specific trait that protects people from ideological brain washing and mind viruses.

It seems to me to be more of a luck of the dice situation. When and where you were born, what kind of parents you had, what your peer group is like, what kind of experiences and knowledge you randomly get exposed to in your life. I think these kinds of things are more likely to influence if you fall down any cult, including the progressive woke and trans ideology, than some genetic intelligence factor.
