But of course, humans can be lots of things for which the immediate genetic component is close to zero. For example: catholic, hungry, covered in jam. If a parent brings their children up to believe in a literal religious truth, the fact of the children's shared DNA

doesn't really matter - it doesn't allow us to conclude that they have some inner, genetically bestowed, religious essence. It is their shared environment that did it: the beliefs and actions of the parent.

If most or even the majority of trans children had trans-affirming parents the whole "ROGD" moral panic simply could not exist

Far be it from me to tell you your business, but this is the spot where someone with a counterargument would present it.

A counter argument to 'if fewer people raised concerns about trans kids, there would be fewer people concerned about trans kids'? Nah it's ok thanks. No point fighting with an empty tautology.

The point is that the cause of kids being trans obviously cannot be parents brainwashing them into it, because the vast majority of trans kids do not have affirming parents

It's not always the parents, blindingly obviously. Or is your case that not all (or even not many) kids are transed by their parents therefore no kids are transed by their parents? That would be stupid even by your own previously unbeatable standards.

Lol yeah so this is what I already responded to at length, the idea of transness in and of itself being a "dangerous idea" regardless of how much or how little power the person who introduced it to you has over you

I think I'll sit that out thanks Arthur. Perhaps it's full of brilliant insights but I'm afraid you've rather cried wolf on that score. Muting you again now.
