Vice President JD Vance’s Bluesky account was suspended within minutes of him joining the platform. His posts criticized medical treatments for transgender youth and claimed pharmaceutical influence over healthcare decisions.

Not only that, but targeting the ~20% of the population that's post-menopausal cis women with all the benefits of HRT would be a WAY bigger market than the 1-5% of the population that might be trans. If it was about making money on HRT, they're certainly not going for a very large market.

Not only that, but wouldn't Big Pharma™ be lobbying heavily against all the anti-trans healthcare bills? Seems like they're doing a pretty awful job of maintaining their market.
