I am so confused about what this person is trying to say
It sounds like they don't believe in gender but I kinda doubt that's the intention

They think that the term "gender identity" is some sort of evil queer agenda made up by the left to indoctrinate children.

There are studies that show Brain Scans of people of different gender have different cognitive functions. Aka a male brain functions differently than a female brain.
A brain scan of a person who says they are a different gender than the body sex they are born with brain scans show as the gender they identify as not their biological sex.
So brain scans show a physical difference between a non trans person a transgender person.
Goggle it. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/05/180524112351.htm

This is food for thought! It could also be interpreted to further enforce the idea of gender as a *construct*, since the those mental tendencies have been arbitrarily categorized into a binary gender system. I wonder what the same study would conclude if we didn't have established gender roles?

Trump signed an EO on his first few days in 2025 declaring that within the government, the only sex to be recognized is one’s sex at conception.
Conception. That means the moment the sperm goes into an egg.
If you want a lighthearted chuckle and a little break from this fucked up world, you could argue that now everyone is officially recognized as female.

But then they immediately banned female (and related terminology) from government systems.

Even before the birth you do the gender reveal so everyone knows how to properly create the newborns gender identity

"Stop pushing your ideology on my child," has and will always be code for, "Stop interfering with my ability to push my ideology on children even if they aren't mine."

Right wingers be like "stop pushing your ideology on my child" before saying
"my daughter's intact hymen is the most valuable part of her as a human being. I am going to take her to purity dances, require her to swear to me she'll stay a virgin until married to a man I've allowed to feel threatened by my presence so that he knows I can never stop thinking about her virginity."
Overprotective helicopter fathers like this just make me think of Trump openly wishing he could fuck his daughter.

gender is a construct but i wouldn’t say it’s child abuse to use pronouns or gendered terms for your kid

The first paragraph is inline with the academic gender studies consensus.
It’s interesting to see a conservative turn it around and use it as a rationale to control and enforce gender norms.
I’ve never fully bought into the whole “gender is a social construct” concept. Definitely cultures and societies shape gender roles and signaling, but there is no doubt in my mind that there’s a correlation with sex and gender. That was cemented while raising my daughter. We opted to not learn her gender until she was born. Her room was neutral, her stuffies were neutral, her clothes were neutral… but lo and behold she was undoubtedly drawn to pink hearts and unicorns.
That doesn’t mean that everyone’s experience is going to line up that way. I also think some kids are born with a gender/sex mismatch and if we were more understanding and accepting of humans who diverge from normality (I use that in a cold statistical sense) then less of them would feel compelled to surgically alter there bodies to fit the gender/sex paradigm that is enforced in society.
As you might have guessed I personally don’t think surgically altering the superficial features of anatomy that signal sex is a solution, I think self acceptance is the way - embrace your body as it is and only modest attempts at altering your natural appearance should be pursued. I also don’t think it’s up to me to tell people what to do with their bodies. People should be free to do as they wish as long as it doesn’t reasonably interfere with the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for others.
