Are they like the Trumpets in my family? No matter how bad Trump gets they just focus down on trans people in sports and washrooms.

How can I worry about the economy and healthcare when the boxer in the Olympics looks man-ish?

It's such a weird thing to focus on. How many of your (or my) family members are competing in sports? I have a few, but they're co-ed adult leagues, so who the hell cares.

And nobody looks at each other in bathrooms. I've seen literally dozens of women use the men's bathroom in my life. We don't care. She goes to a stall, I go to a urinal, I wash my hands, I leave, I never see her again

It's a defense tactic. They are confronted with potentially upsetting threats to their hate world views and so they immediately shut down and pivot to comfortable territory.
