LostOne4Ever's JournalTransphobic Docudrama: Gender Transformation
I saw an ad for this and red flags went off immediately. So I did some digging and yep I was right. If you see an ad for this documentary, don’t be fooled. It is pure rightwing propaganda
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt27679623/
Apparently the film follows the life of a Trans man, Andrew Elijah Martinez, who committed suicide after he was removed from his mother’s custody following accusations of abuse. Unsurprisingly, it is told from HER PERSPECTIVE ONLY!
It also features interviews with 3 (transphobic) detransitioners including Walt Heyer, owner of the transphobic sexchangeregret website. Despite out numbering them by nearly 2 to 1 No pro-trans detransitioners were included. Similarly, even though they out number them by 99:1, no trans people happy with their transition were interviewed.
You see where this is going? Right?
Be careful this propaganda film is trying to promote itself as even handed when in fact it is a hit piece.
In particular, I would like to point out the irony that the title of the movie is untold realities when the case of Andrew Martinez is exactly that. Every mainstream media account of the story either ignore the allegations of the mother entirely or are heavily biased in her favor.
Andrew’s cousin has a very different account and points out the abuse and all the details that are being intentionally left out:

This is why conservatives hate Tik Tok. They can’t control it. The cousin gave details omitted in every other media account I found. Details that show that his mom was abusive. So much so that he begged not to be sent back. And she literally prevented him from being able to leave foster care to live with his cousin and Aunt.
Why We Must Abandon The Young Turks: Transphobia and Progressive Influencers
Never attach yourself to idols

I’ve written a couple of articles lately going over problems with Ana Kasparian and her recent delving into transphobia. In both articles, I explained why I thought transphobia would be something we would likely continue to see, and that outbursts of transphobia from Ana and The Young Turks (TYT) commentary program she co-hosts and produces would likely grow worse over time.
While it has not been long since I made those points, Ana and her co-host Cenk Uygur have continued to double down on transphobia. Keep in mind that all of this stems from Ana being wrong about how inclusive language is being used, a point she herself has criticized people for being wrong about in the past.
People have continued to explain this to Ana and Cenk, yet they are both refusing to listen to those correcting them. In fact, they both seem to be repeating the same old lie about women being called birthing persons instead of women. This is a lie on their part. Nobody is mandating that anyone call women birthing people, simply saying that language such as that is used in certain settings to be inclusive of non-binary or trans people.
More than enough people have responded to them in good faith, correcting them and explaining why they’re wrong. At this point, they cannot simply not be misunderstanding, so we can be sure that this is just them being dishonest.

They’re throwing trans people under the bus in the middle of a massive moral panic from the right.

Renton Sinclair’s mother is a former Miss Illinois who wants to force trans people out of public life. That’s exactly what makes her a rising star in MAGA World.

What makes him angry is that the pain in these pages — their chronicles of depression and confusion, an overdose, and wanting deeply every day to die — is what so many politicians across the country want to inflict on trans people. To codify that cruelty he experienced, that sheer unkindness, into law. Like his mom, these legislators are uninterested in listening to trans people like Renton. To listen to them would mean seeing them as something besides a convenient wedge issue — the latest scapegoat to be sacrificed in a cynical ploy for votes and clout. To listen to them would mean to know the people they’re trying to disappear.
Renton first contacted HuffPost after watching a video I posted of his mom speaking at the Great ReAwakening. “Hey, maybe this is weird, but this is my mom,” he wrote in a Twitter DM. “I’m trans.”
Seeing his mom on that stage made him realize it was time to speak up, to take back his story. “Just being in a position now where I’m like, OK, I can actually fucking stand up for myself, and I don’t just have to sit and just take this bullshit forever, and I can actually like have a say in it, that is cool,” he said.

In a tense text exchange with his mom about transitioning, he remembers asking her, “Would you like a dead kid or a trans one?” It’s a question that has emerged as a refrain among trans activists during debates about giving trans adolescents puberty blockers or hormones.
