It was interesting but I don't think it really helped the trans cause. The other highlighted story was about a male doctor playing tennis as a woman.
Then they tried to gain sympathy for that person. Then make Tucker Carlson and his dad out to be huge anti-trans people. When in reality the father really outed two shysters.
Had 'Liz' not been a criminal the Dale could have been a hit. The concept was there, they could have registered it as a cycle and had a hit. Instead she played everyone involved.
Then the tennis player..... you can identify however you like but sports need to be left up to biological identity. Muscle growth and biological factors are different. To point out shysters I don't think is in itself anti trans.

When you repeatedly use words like that, you look like an idiot.

They sort of address this in the last episode. One of the talking heads admitted Liz wasnt a great role model or figure, but was important in the way she was treated and her case was handled.
She was criminally prosecuted and served time when other crimes at the time were not.
The focus also became almost solely on her "playing a woman" vs identifying a woman to prove her "shystiness." The defense and media wanted the trans part to be a false bravado to help build their case when it really had nothing to do with any part of the case. I think that's where her importance to their cause comes from.
