How they can say that with a straight face is beyond me

The other day I was watching Bowelstrek going over a shill media article attacking fans who didn't like the Dr. Who episode. The thing that really annoyed me was that the writer of the article actually said it was important for the show to represent trans/non-binary people because they never get to "see themselves" represented. Is this person insane? I thought the constant LGB pushing the last two decades was getting annoying but now we have to celebrate delusional people and the over-representation is beyond off the charts. I guess the writer of the article must live in a very left wing bubble.

I will never understand how if I were to tell someone that I'm a time traveler from 1000 years in the future I'll be sent to a mental hospital but seeing a penis between my legs and insisting I am a woman is something that will get me fawning adulation.

I wanted to check the claims of under representation.

Here is a list of some transsexual characters in movies from the last 70 years, based on the web search results I found:

Glenda in Glen or Glenda (1953), played by Ed Wood. This film was made when it was illegal for a man to crossdress as a woman in public. ¹²
Charles Beaumont in Adam est... Ève (1954), played by Micheline Carvel. This is likely the first French trans film in which a boxer is "knocked out", then wakes up realizing she is a woman. ³
Christine Jorgensen in The Christine Jorgensen Story (1970), played by John Hansen. This film is based on the autobiography of Christine Jorgensen, a former Army private from the Bronx who underwent surgery and hormone treatments in Denmark in 1952 to transition from male to female. ⁴⁵
Myra Breckinridge in Myra Breckinridge (1970), played by Raquel Welch. Myra has undergone a sex change operation.
Roy / Wendy in I Want What I Want (1972), played by Anne Heywood. This film depicts the story of an unhappy boy who tries to fulfill his "dreams of becoming a beautiful woman."
Dil in The Crying Game (1992), played by Jaye Davidson. Dil is a trans woman who is the love interest of Fergus, an IRA member.
Brandon Teena in Boys Don't Cry (1999), played by Hilary Swank. This film is based on the true story of Brandon Teena, a trans man who was raped and murdered in Nebraska in 1993.
Lana Tisdel in Boys Don't Cry (1999), played by Chloë Sevigny. Lana is a cisgender woman who falls in love with Brandon Teena, unaware of his biological sex.
Alex in XXY (2007), played by Inés Efron. Alex is an intersex teenager who faces social and family pressure to choose a gender identity.
Lili Elbe in The Danish Girl (2015), played by Eddie Redmayne. This film is inspired by the life of Lili Elbe, one of the first known recipients of sex reassignment surgery in the 1930s.
Gerda Wegener in The Danish Girl (2015), played by Alicia Vikander. Gerda is a cisgender woman who is the wife and later the supportive friend of Lili Elbe.

Holy shit!

I suppose trannies are a good dramatic vehicle--narcissism, self-deception, lies, not to mention the sexual titillation for closeted homos when a dick is discovered under the panties.

I'd be a little bit careful if you haven't seen the particular movies, because they do like to recruit long-dead people into their cult. It's also possible to have an accurate portrayal of this delusion, like Requiem for a Dream did for druggies.
