What Happens When Transgenderism Is No Longer Cool? Prosecutions, Hopefully
The Federalist ^ | October 17, 2025 | Elle Purnell

Ideologues foisting the harmful lies of transgenderism onto kids should be laughed — and prosecuted — out of polite society.

When the transgender fever fully subsides, it won’t be because of how celebrities like Kiera Knightley respond to idiotic questions about it. But it’s telling when celebrity windsocks no longer feel obligated to pay ritual fealties to social contagions, because social contagions rely on ritual fealties to survive.

In a Decider interview published last week, Knightley — who voices a character in a forthcoming audiobook recording of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series — was asked if she was “aware” of the fury directed at Rowling and, by extension, the Potter franchise for Rowling’s “ongoing campaign against trans people.” (By this, the interviewer meant Rowling’s insistence that men cannot become women and should not be enabled to invade private women’s spaces.)

“I was not aware of that, no. I’m very sorry,” Knightley said with a glint of sarcasm and a laugh.

I highly doubt Knightley, who has included herself in what she describes as a “progressive” and “left-wing artistic” group of people, intended to become the new patron saint of conservative women’s magazines with that laugh. The actress’s previous deference to progressive sexual politics (“of course” she’s raising her daughters to be feminists, she told Vanity Fair) suggests she became the conservative icon du jour by total accident, though if she withstands the pressure to apologize for her momentary moral clarity, she deserves some respect for that. (If she really wants us to praise her bravery, she should speak up for women with the decisive conviction that Rowling has.) But at the very least, that Knightley felt free to react so candidly to the absurd demands of trans radicals suggests some kind of Overton window shift.

The mental health professionals who propped up this BS should be stripped of their credential, licenses and in some cases prosecuted for ruining the lives of vulnerable kids.

I was interviewd on a podcast last year regarding the trans-fad, underlying mental issues and the money making doctors destroying lives.

Two hours and barely touched the horrors of the trans mutilations and sterilizations.

I personally hope every single social worker, psychologist, shrink and MD gets their licenses revoked and worse. They need to answer for the 46% suicide rates( attempts and deaths).
I have too much to say, go to hell you “health care” professionals.

“ I personally hope every single social worker, psychologist, shrink and MD gets their licenses revoked and worse.”

I see the day when some of the folks that they mutilated come back seeking revenge, and I don’t mean through the legal system.

The anger and rage will happen. I can’t imagine a 15 year old in 15 years finally waking up and realizing they will never have children or grandchildren or any form of normal life.

It will be interesting when the ads for the Sokolove law firm start showing up on TV and elsewhere.
