These folks are trapped, perhaps hopelessly, in a bubble in which the only explanation for concerns about youth gender medicine is transphobia. Like, it's *impossible* there are good-faith questions. I'd feel bad for them but they are spreading a huge amount of misinformation. 
2/A large number of pioneers in youth gender medicine have come forward with concerns -- Steensma, de Vries, Olson-Kennedy, Bowers, among others. You are completely conspiracy-addled if you think some evil puppet masters are controlling the discourse on this subject. Aggravating.
3/ Parker Molloy, in particular, has *actually* worked behind the scenes (and openly!) to attempt to rather viciously punish and denounce journalists who question her preferred narrative on this subject. It's rich for her to claim shadowy influence here.
4/ Not new. It's a deeply conspiratorial belief system in which nothing happens in the medical community without TERFs pulling the strings secretly. If it were "multiculturalists" or "Jews" instead of TERFs it would be recognized as a deranged viewpoint.

5/ What's so frustrating about Parker's conspiracy theory is that #actually, a major factor in the Swedish government's U-turn was a coverup scandal involving kids who got blockers at Karolinska and then suffered awful side effects. No empathy.

6/ Someone tweet at Parker and ask her politely how many times she has DMed or texted journalists angrily to demand they cover this issue differently. I'm curious what estimate she provides. I know of multiple such cases.
