Transphobia is not literature: Amazon, stop spreading hate

Amazon and other platforms are selling transphobic books, not considering that 41 % of trans people commit suicide due to bullying.

Books like "Irreversible Damage" by Abigail Shier create a massive increase in harm to transgender children and are filled with false dichotomy and abusive ideology. They are a threat to the transgender community and invite others to spread more hate. About 41 % of transgender people commit suicide due to bullying. This cannot go on. Many lives are at stake and we need Amazon, Target, and other platforms to consider the actual irreversible damage this book will do to trans children, their parent's and other's mindsets and health, and take it down before it does more damage than it already has.

Please also note that being trans is officially not a mental disorder anymore. The WHO has replaced diagnostic categories like ICD-10's (International Classification of Diseases) "transsexualism" and "gender identity disorder of children" with "gender incongruence of adolescence and adulthood" and "gender incongruence of childhood."

An Amazon, Target, Barnes & Noble:

Every day another trans child suffers abuse at the hands of ill-informed parents and other individuals. The book "Irreversible Damage"  has created a massive increase in harm to transgender children and will continue to do so as long as you continue to sell this book filled with false dichotomy and abusive ideology. We demand this book be removed from stores and online sales and anywhere else you are making it available.  We ask that you to consider the actual irreversible damage this book will do to the transgender community.
