Transgender Ideology, what is it and how do you put it on a bullet?

I am not trans so I cannot speak from authority or experience, but I am having trouble finding transgender ideology that could possibly fit on a bullet. In fact it almost appears like "LBGTQ+" is about the only thing you could get on a bullet and that is an identity not a political cause.

I found a few things that might be trans ideology. Or it might be what Jesus said. You be the judge of that.

Don't bully people
Everyone needs love
Don't judge

These are all going to take pretty fine print to put on a bullet and don't really seem to match.
There is a gender icon that might fit on a bullet but it to would take some careful work and again it is an identity or support thing and not an ideology.

From right wing sources I get a sort of, "You must find me attractive no matter how I look or what I do and say." But again, that seems like a statement the right wing makes all the time when women reject them. While there are probably trans individuals who have espoused this view, incel's own this position.

As far as an antifa thing to put on a bullet, maybe a slash through a swastika. I think it is a pretty big tell when a person has an issue with someone not loving Nazi's.

2. There are unverified reports

that there was trans and anti fascist writing found on shell casing. Seems pretty improbable but there will be people who will run with it and consider it factual.

3. There was a statement that trans and antifa ideology were put on the bullets found in the gun they found in the woods.

This statement is being backed out of. Probably because they are having trouble figuring out what to try and stamp on the bullets.

I am wondering if a marksman would actually want to deform a bullet with anything. From what I have read, they are pretty careful about the bullets they use.

5. If the ammunition claim is real, it's more evidence it was not a Democrat. Only the right is obsessed with trans.

9. But that would be on a cartridge.

Again, I don't think a marksman would want to risk altering a cartridge like that. I doubt the gun in the woods is from the marksman. Pretty sure it would have been wiped down before being discarded. Marksmen generally keep things for cleaning guns handy. They have a lot of practice keeping guns clean. Easy enough to get a fresh cloth to use and it is easy enough to use a generic cleaner.

8. Engraving cartridge shells is a thing among firearms enthusiasts. Seems like there's much more to this story. nt
