The bit about banning LGBT individuals from using their assigned gender bathrooms, definitely. Also the bits about "restricting reproductive health education in sixth through 12th grade; schools to teach that sex is determined by biology and reproductive function at birth; and that reproductive roles are binary, stable, and unchangeable.” among some other bits and pieces.

(for the record, we did all the reproduction sex stuff in seventh grade here, including watching education films about it I'm not sure they would show today. Oh and dissecting frogs and mice in the same year!)

Studies show that the more kids know earlier on in secondary school about sex education, all aspects, the lower the teen pregnancy rate tends to be. Although rates in the US have been coming down the last few years, they are still the highest in the developed world.

But I know you all think all trans people are mentally ill (reality, no they are not), so I'm bowing out of the discussion already as I'll get shouted down for even saying that here.
Mayhem, as a trans person yourself I can understand how you would dig in on these things. And I think that it is obvious and clear to anyone who at least pauses to think about it that not all trans people are mentally ill.

But the real problem is that the public forum has been littered with the worst of your people for years now rather than the best of them. People having sex shows in front of children and crackpots with zits and yellow teeth on-camera going on about nonsense like "bathroom use".

The simple fact is that the nonsense topics that trans people seem to obsess with simply are distasteful and not prescient to the majority of normal and good people living their lives. And when you combine that with the loud mouthing, gas lighting and other social behaviors from the left that lack integrity completely (i.e. they say "you have an American flag on your shirt and so you are a right-wing extremist"), you have an absolute dumpster fire.

Nobody cares that you are trans, Mayhem. Everyone cares about what you bring into society however over what has become, quite frankly a nonsense and exhausting topic. Nonsense and exhausting is a dangerous combination when people grow tired of it.
