"The world of transvestigators is a sick, sad, and sorry place to live. But for those of us privileged enough to only glance at it from our car windows, it holds a strange fascination. How can so many people be so psychotically wrong about so many things, all while managing to completely miss the bigger picture? How has this conspiracy theory become so compelling as to overtake the front page conspiracy theory-turned-reality that actually exists?"
"These are questions without answers, of course, but we still have to ask them, especially because the subjects of transvestigations on Facebook and elsewhere are getting truly out of pocket at this point. And while transvestigators are totally unhinged transphobes who believe that trans people are part of a vast network of powerful actors who live to switch back and forth between genders on a whim, sometimes even the most insane among them can make a compelling, if ridiculous case for their team."
Transvestigators on social media propagate transphobic conspiracy theories that falsely claim public figures secretly switch genders or perform as drag personas. These groups target cis individuals, accusing them of hidden identities and manufacturing elaborate false narratives. Examples include accusations against Erika and Charlie Kirk and a claim, amplified by an AI bot, that Erika Kirk is JD Vance’s drag persona. Theories often rely on superficial resemblance and run rampant despite clear evidence to the contrary. The behavior is marked by harassment, misinformation, and escalating audacity, distracting from substantive issues while causing harm to targeted individuals and communities.
