Sure, but imagine your single source of income was theatened such that if one day someone asked you to do something which goes against your beliefs you'll be fired for not doing it. That could never happen. Or that could happen tomorrow. That's the sort of thing that when it hangs over your head it becomes real, at least psychologically. Now, I agree with (what I think is your point) that we need to be laser focussed on that which is truly important, and not get distracted by side shows. I also agree with you that we should be laser focussed on the money (big fan of Broken Money btw). But still, the trans/pronoun thing--like the vaccine--is a thing pushed by the establishment that does have a impact on people's lives, even if it's just to create a hostile and menacing air.

Most adults don't deal with it much, if at all. It is much more common for the youth. In school (elementary through college), it is rampant. My son has had to deal with it a little, but not too much because he was homeschooled through high school (although he did have to deal with it in at least one of the community college classes he took during high school) and he now attends Liberty University which is the opposite of the normal woke university. I know multiple people who have had their kids deal with it or even try to join it.

He is talking exactly about the issue you described. "Disagreements with people in person, about their gender". "Misgendering" is a disagreement, and it is not being taken lightly in some environments.

The directives communicated via email make it even worse. Dash is telling you "it's gotten so bad that I may even lose my job because of it!"
