The last thing you want to refer to for your arguments is the DSM. Psychologists used to also correctly acknowledge homosexuality as a mental illness and sub90 IQs as retarded until it wasn't politically expedient. The DSM is absolutely a tool for pushing social degeneration.
I had a psych teacher in college who warned us that when we read through the DSM we would be tempted to diagnose ourselves and all the people we knew. But it's more political than scientific in a lot of ways if you look at what gets dropped after some years.
You are correct and they have already removed gender dysphoria as a mental illness as of the last edition released. So the tweet already isn’t accurate for the reason you describe.

It is entirely political. And also, a very poor tool when making psychiatric diagnoses. It's the most idiotic thing in psychiatry in my opinion.
