>>120073548The logic is that they believe they can impose their desires on the world through sheer media pressure. A lot of these people believe, because of the success of the lgbt movement in the 90s and 00s, that the only way to social change is media manipulation and presentation in the media is paramount. That's why "good trans character" has become "good moral character to appeal to kids." rather than "interesting, fleshed out character".
Basically if all media is propaganda than there is a requirement to ensure your group is represented the way you want the movement to be seen, and constantly present. You must become the new normal and retconning popular, nostalgic media figures into the group is a great, low-effort high-reward way to do it.
This shit is almost all the social movement trans folks who have a high crossover rate with the high-fucntioning autistic community and generally low key talk to each other like they're the fucking x-men.
