“Existential Comics” is an unfunny hard Left “comic”. In a recent “comic” the artist was trying to… say that a gay man was transphobic for not wanting a boy in a girls bathroom or playing on women’s sports because Harry Potter—unlike a real boy—turned himself into a literal girl meaning that Dumbledore is just a hater.
Of course, what this does do is demonstrate just how much transgenderism is just magic cosplay taken seriously to the point of being an honest belief in imitative magic.
Truth and citing objective biological reality, then, is a counterspell of sorts against this madness.

So you are saying that the belief in the delusion of sex change is just like the belief in magic that doesn’t involve the eye thing that witches do so well. My dearly departed had an eye thing that she did when transforming between a fire-breathing dragon and a golden princess. I had to be alert for the eye flicker, although there was no gender change. I didn’t need a Gandaff or Dumbledore to tell me which was which. I was entranced by that magic and very careful.
“Truth and citing objective biological reality, then, is a counterspell of sorts against this madness.”
Yes biological reality like saying that intersex babies must have surgery: https://healthlaw.org/surgeries-on-intersex-infants-are-bad-medicine/
““The same belief in magic reveals itself in the claim that certain words or ideas associated with ‘white privilege’ are a form of ‘epistemic violence’, capable of wreaking untold psychological damage on women and minorities. When a group of LGBT+ activists at a university claim that giving a platform to a ‘Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist’ will ‘erase’ the identity of trans students, it is tempting to dismiss this as hyperbole. But maybe we should take what they say at face value. If we grant them that courtesy, we have to conclude that the members of this cult attribute a terrifying supernatural power to those in possession of ‘white privilege’. They really do believe that the people at the top of the intersectional hierarchy can literally ‘erase’ people by uttering certain words, almost like magic spells. In this context, the ‘safe spaces’ that have been created in universities, in which students are protected from the harmful effects of these spells, are a bit like churches — holy places where evil cannot penetrate.””
Except this is nothing but fallicious reasoning: https://www.google.com/search?q=appeal+to+aburdity&rlz=1C1VDKB_enUS967US968&oq=appeal+to+aburdity&aqs=chrome..69i57.4522j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
If anything surgeries and forcing others to comform to a binary is the magic here: https://scholarsbank.uoregon.edu/xmlui/handle/1794/26931
The idea that forcing people to conform to what you think they should be leads to nothing but suicide: https://bmcpsychology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40359-021-00533-6
People with bona fide medical conditions are real, and those conditions do not disproof that we are a dimporhic species with two sexes that have physical and actual physiological differences between them. Believing that you are the opposite does not make it so.
