The current U.S. regime is attacking trans people by claiming they disproportionately carry out mass shootings, a claim not based in reality, which this article is pointing out in its response.

The people who are convinced that Trans people are responsible for mass shootings also believe that planet earth is flat. It's not going to change any minds.

77 million Americans (Trump voters) believe only what Trump tells them.

You can say something, but it won't change their minds, therefore a waste of time.

I think you assume too much about the potential readers, as well as how such an article might be used outside of what you describe.

Trump voters don't read much more than a headline and they definitely do not read any articles on Mother Jones. It's wishful thinking that an article like this will change any Trump voter's mind.

The point is that more people in general know.

Pointing out that men like to kill people? Mass shootings, bombing churches, Federal buildings and churches, driving trucks into parades...you don't see women doing that shit.

That can be said of men in general, since the beginning of humanity. Men love to kill pretty much anything that lives.
