No, you really haven't. Nobody is "mutilating" trans kids, and it's because those kids can't give consent.
Cisgender kids have been put on puberty blockers to treat disorders like precocious puberty for decades. We know the long term effects of the these drugs and they are minimal. Surgery is only an option for 16 year olds at the youngest and that's only with the consent of both parents. All this outrage about "saving the children" is BS that is only manufactured to draw the uninformed over to the bigots cause. Every major medical association in the US and Europe has proven time and again that gender affirming care saves lives. Whether you're just ignorant or a willfully hateful bigot I don't know, but taking time to learn the actual facts of the matter would probably be a good idea.
