it's because the older generation of x'er/elder millennial trannies are aging out and becoming less prominent. those were the ones who were most likely to be angry all the time and poorly-feminized.
zoomer trannies are turning out to be less political and are more interested in making pop music and that sort of thing. they're not as abrasive and not as mad.
along with AI/transhumanism/genetic engineering technology, i think their general stock is rising after some recent cultural lows.

I feel like this type of thing is more iconically trannyish though, just maxxed-out subcultural trappings on every possible axis as a vehicle for raw sprezzatura and craft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9psjoFo9sXI&t=1064s
a lot of this shit would’ve been super popular 20 years ago if you make the performers “emo” instead of “trans”.

they were the convenient culture war mascot/scapegoat 5-10 years ago, now they don't serve that purpose anymore so they can just be themselves. also a lot of backlash was a temporary adjustment to the massive increase in the number of "out" trannies, same as with gays.
