Many defenders of Knowles’s comments argued that he was arguing against the “ideology” - or rather, the societal acceptance of transgender identity and elevation of transgender visibility - that has encouraged a larger percentage of people to come out as transgender in recent years as compared to past decades, not transgender individuals themselves. Knowles himself responded to a headline in Rolling Stone magazine that claimed he called for the eradication of transgender people, claiming it was libelous. This isn't some fringe figure, this is a Daily Wire host speaking at CPAC. What exactly do you think "eradication" entails? If you ever wondered how we get from hate speech to genocide, this is it.

Miles Heizer To Star In Netflix’s Gay Marine Series ‘The Corps’ If it’s false, then, for the good of society, and especially for the good of the poor people who have fallen prey to this confusion, transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely, the whole preposterous ideology, at every level.” “And if it’s false, then we should not indulge it, especially since that indulgence requires taking away the rights and customs of so many people. If transgenderism is false, if men really can’t become women, as they can not, then it’s false for everybody, too. If transgenderism is true, if men really can become women, then it’s true for everybody, of all ages.
“There can be no middle way in dealing with transgenderism,” Knowles said in his speech. Michael Knowles, of the Daily Wire, said that eliminating “transgenderism” from public life would be “for the good of society.” (Transgender rights advocates say the term “transgenderism” is offensive because it dehumanizes trans people and reduces their gender identity to a clinical problem or to a political ideology.) A right-wing commentator gave a fiery culture war speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, Maryland, on Saturday, calling for the eradication of “transgenderism” from the public sphere.
