As if gender ideology is a thing. Its on the same line as saying people believe in "transgenderism". Its just being trans or gender non-conforming/genderqueer. These people think they even know what they are talking about when they haven't the slightest clue whatsoever.

It's a thing but not in the way he means it. Trans acceptance and traditionalist views of gender are both gender ideologies. He's using the word ideology the way propagandists often do: describing an opposing view as an "ideology" to contrast it with his favored view, which he means to imply is simply The Truth™ and therefore above any ideological concerns.

"Gender ideology" is as real as the boogeyman is real. It's literally a conspiracy theory the right invented to scare themselves.
