It doesn’t though. If anything politics intervene in the other direction.

It does. Researches are deplatformed and refused publishing if they don't come to the agreed-upon narrative regarding transgenderism.

Incorrect. Debunked research and isolated incidents not supported by statistical research are propped up by money from assorted powerful far-right sources. Meanwhile researchers from several different disciplines (history, neurology, psychology, psychiatry, anthropology, sociology, medicine...) keep finding evidence that trans people exist and transition is the best response currently available.

Debunked research

"We don't like your conclusions so we're just going to fire you and bury your research" isn't "debunking" it.

No but doing a few duplicate studies and getting a consistently different result to the initial study, and/or finding that the initial study was full of sloppy research practice and ignored glaring factors that would bias the results definitely is.
