Gender Affirming Care for minors is by far the most controversial element of the trans rights movement, it’s going to get downvotes even on relatively safe places like lemmy.
I think gender affirming care for minors has more support than trans participation in sports, for example.
EDIT:
In 2023 69% of Americans believed trans people should only be able to play on the team of the gender they were assigned at birth, according to this Gallup poll.
In 2024 62% of Americans oppose banning gender affirming care for minors in this Gallup poll.
It’s just not really a good meme at all, so it’s going to get downvotes. That’s what downvotes are for.
The more unusual circumstance is that it got so many upvotes despite being a crappy meme. This clearly indicates that we have a lot of Lemmy users who support trans youth. Good for us, that makes me glad. Still not good content for this particular community imho, so I didn’t upvote.

It’s not an entertaining meme
Sure. That’s what ignoring something is for.
I didn’t downvote. But I didn’t upvote either.
