Because definitionally they believe 'the diagnostic criteria for transgender is dyspgoria. The cure to dysphoria is HRT. Take the medicine.'

And I think this message was helpful to me, to read "take the medicine, you need HRT to feel better." - I'm a trans female. This message doesn't apply to like more than half of all trans people, and for some odd reason they also use it to exclude those trans people. Euphoria is also diagnostically trans, and HRT isnt the right treatment for most trans people. Youre valid.

Yes, they told me that they believe I should have my HRT legally taken away because I'm non-binary. Some have asserted that I'm "taking away valuable resources from trans people who actually need it" as their line of thinking.

I'm so sorry you were told that. I'm glad you know its bullshit and you're spreading the message with this meme. I thought I was aware to the extent transmeds were transphobic... Nope, you've shown me where the goalpost really got moved to.
