I have always felt it is a dysmorphia in 99% of cases. It’s always felt like making trans acceptable is like telling a 70lb anorexic that she’s right and she is still fat There are true innersex conditions, but that’s like 1%.
Late adolescence and early adulthood is always the most violent and impulsive times in one’s life. It’s an argument I’ve never been for from the left. If a kid gets the death penalty they argue his prefrontal cortex isn’t fully formed. That’s correct, but why then can they make this choice?
I did so much erratic shit 16-25, the idea of taking a mentally ill kid and fucking with their hormones is insane. At minimum the age it should be legal is mid 20s.
A biological man’s violent tendencies is almost directly correlated to his T levels. And we are talking 15% differences between peak and 35. To take a biological female with mental issues and go 100x their endogenous levels is insane. And to remove it and start giving them estrogen during a period when they are already emotional, it’s all insane. It’s always unsettled me, but I’m of the they deserve compassion even if it’s idiocy camp, and what people do that doesn’t affect me I generally dgaf about. but now we are seeing real societal problems as it becomes more prevalent. It just needs to end. It doesn’t help these kids.
This kid isn’t that, or doesn’t appear to be, but there way more negative outcomes with suicides and now violence than lives saved. This surgery didn’t exist for most of our existence, even most of modern culture, so the argument it saves lives falls flat. It’s not like suicide rates among young people used to be much higher before reassignment surgery. It wasn’t. It was lower.

Here’s a question my home state of Oregon could easily answer: How many kids have received gender transition surgeries in the last 15 years? The state has this data and is required by law to give it to me. Yet instead of doing so, officials are now telling me that they’ve been illegally selling Oregonians’ health information for years. It’s a head-turning argument, but it’s also false. It shows how desperate the state is to avoid answering my question.
I have been a volunteer health consumer advocate for more than 20 years. I have led the development and passage of laws that guarantee insurance coverage of evidence-based autism services, end discrimination against disabled patients seeking organ transplants, and strengthen the insurance commissioner’s enforcement authority. I am also a lifelong Democrat, and as transgender medicine has come into vogue in recent years, I’ve worked to help my state implement evidence-based standards that protect kids.
The key to my work is the Oregon Health Authority’s “All Payer All Claims” database, which has detailed information about health transactions for more than 92% of the state’s population. By law, this data is available to the public, and to protect patients, it’s fully compliant with federal privacy laws and regulations. There is no way to identify any individual patient, full stop.
The Oregon Health Authority makes this data available for purchase, and a few years ago, I purchased access to the 2019 data for a federally funded study. I found that while Oregon had estimated that only about 175 patients would obtain taxpayer-funded gender transition services at a total annual cost of no more than $200,000, more than 7,585 patients had done so at more than 100 times the initial cost estimate. That included 160 children using “puberty blocker” drugs and approximately 370 children taking cross-sex hormones. There were also 33 biological girls who had mastectomies – including some as young as 15 – and two 17-year-old girls who had their uteruses and ovaries removed.
I found this concerning since the Oregon Department of Justice had declared in a February legal filing that “genital surgery is not performed on transgender minors”. Yet the state’s own data confirmed that children really do undergo genital surgery that leaves them permanently sterilized. I publicized my findings late last year.
In February, I contacted the Oregon Health Authority to express interest in a new research project. At first, they offered me 10 years’ worth of data – 2011 through 2020. This would have been invaluable in tracking the recent rise in gender dysphoria diagnoses, the age and other medical conditions of patients who pursue a gender transition, and the types of treatment they received.
Yet when I told officials that I wanted to study “gender-affirming treatment” over that decade, their reaction quickly shifted. From internal emails that I obtained under Oregon’s public records laws, my routine request was immediately flagged for review by senior executives. They were deeply concerned about the political “risks” of providing me with this data.
The first idea they debated was requiring me to sign a new contract that would prohibit me from publishing detailed results of my analysis. Then, they considered just purging all records related to gender dysphoria. They concluded that they didn’t have the legal authority to do that. They ultimately settled on another concerning – and telling – approach. The Oregon Health Authority told me that the state database was out of compliance with federal privacy laws. Therefore, it couldn’t be released to me or anyone else.
This claim falls flat on so many levels. Oregon has been selling this database to dozens of organizations for 15 years. Customers have included academic researchers, journalists, and even computer companies seeking data to train artificial intelligence tools. If this database were illegal, someone would have flagged it by now – not least the state’s lawyers.
More to the point: If Oregon really believed that the database was out of compliance with federal laws, the state would be required to notify the Secretary of Health and Human Services. It would also be required to inform the news media and each and every one of the millions of individuals affected. Yet the state has made no such move. The Oregon Health Authority hasn’t even notified those of us who already possess the data, nor have they tried to recall it. If their lawyers really say they’re not in compliance, those same lawyers would tell them to begin the notifications immediately.
I’m left with one undeniable conclusion: Oregon is withholding the data to prevent me from researching – and telling the public – about the prevalence and practice of gender medicine in my state. That is a severe violation of my constitutional rights under the First Amendment, and in August, I filed a federal lawsuit to vindicate my rights.
I’m appalled to see this kind of authoritarian behavior from my own Democrat-led state government. My fellow liberals wouldn’t tolerate this from a Republican administration, and I refuse to tolerate it from my own.
OK2: but now we are seeing real societal problems. LMAO.. but now?? It's been AWHILE
The first trans mass shooting was 2018 and it was a workplace dispute. Hard to tell if it’s even because of trans. The next one was 2022. It’s America. We have them all the time. It’s only in past two years where you can definitely say they are more common in that population than average. I’m a idgaf what you do person even if I think it’s insane until it becomes a public safety issue. Then it’s more than their problem.
Aight. Nobody has a responsibility to gaf but tax dollars going towards it is fucking insaneQuote:

I know some will think I'm being paranoid here, but if there were a way to get a definitive answer on this - I'd offer -300 that he was paid to do this while making sure to wear that shirt. I just don't think the average person understands the lengths the Democrat machine will go to, to win a narrative war like this one. You'll know it's true if he's identified and miraculously turns out to have a digital footprint that points strongly to being a "groyper".
"Orange man bad" in this scenario would even more effectively turn into "patriot shirt man groyper". And it's not even to try and convince Republicans, it's to try and prevent the few moderates they're holding onto from realizing they're associating with a bunch of fucking lunatics.
I almost want to delete this as to not give anyone ideas. My line is a bit exaggerated, obviously he can easily just be a troll.

It seems to be coming though.
The best version of this so far. (Minus the cuck censored word.)
I've thought a bit about it, and here's what needs to happen.
There needs to be an absolute beatdown of those who engage in any form of political violence and intimidation.
Give them one warning to disperse, then if they don't, break out the tear gas, the rubber bullets, and whatever else is necessary to arrest and aggressively charge them. Use whatever force necessary if they fight back.
Stop letting the inmates run the asylum.
Antifa taking over the streets of Portland and are harassing/intimidating people? Bring federal authorities in and take care of business.
Left wing assholes taking over buildings or commandeering entire city blocks? Same.
Losers looting or starting riots? Same.
College mob attempting to chase a conservative speaker off campus? Same.
Anyone blocking roads or freeways? Give an order to disperse, then break out the tear gas, then arrest anyone using further force if necessary.
We need zero tolerance for this shit. Fully allow peaceful protest, and make that clear. You can speak out against the government (or anything else) all you want, and your right to do so will be respected and protected.
As soon as it turns into violence, destruction, rioting, or blockading, there's going to be stiff consequences.
I bet most Americans would support this.
I completely agree with all those instances.Quote:

It should have been done at the multitude of BLM riots in 2020 that did infinitely more damage than j6.Quote:

He repeated the stolen election lie so many times even after getting 80 lawsuits kicked in front of his own judges, yet come 2024, like close to 70% of his brain dead voters in exit polling believed it 4 years later.
They actually did a disservice to getting this trans shit recognized quicker. They called every mass shooter a trans, I’d look and they’d be wrong, which made people like me assume they were always wrong as I don’t delve into every mass shooting, but they were right about 50% of the time. Telling the truth half the time is a record for MAGA Twitter.
So some on the left and the party get the value to lying about everything like MAGA does in a coordinated manner and tactically, but not the establishment Dem party unless it’s something generic like Biden is fine and sharp as a tack.
Even on the right, when it’s pretty firmly established it’s a trans kid, I see guys I don’t view as always anti-Israel, like a Dillon, do a show where it’s Charlie Kirk got silenced by the left for 5 minutes and then an hour of he was afraid of Israel killing him. Like if you think Israel did it, put that forward, but if it’s not at all accurate here, then save that for another show. I see this trend amongst all the right wingers who have a young audience which hates Israel regardless of party. Yeah this kid was trans but let’s talk about that for 5 minutes and then launch into how Israel probably did it, without offering any evidence of such.
Just because he expressed a few reservations about Israeli influence, they weren’t going to kill one of their biggest cheerleaders. I find that absurd. He was a MAGA guy who was always easily reeled back into the tent. That’s why the Fuentes and other far right people were at war with him right up until he get shot on tv and they now pretend they loved him and weren’t calling him Tel Aviv’s boy a week ago.

i absolutely guarantee you that not a single word of this will be digested meaningfully.
I had a strange experience on Saturday, hanging out with my girlfriend's friends, who are in their late 20s.Quote:

Already was feeling uneasy, knowing they are Democrats, and honestly it gave me the chills.
Asked my girlfriend about it after, and she told me she changed into his clothes when she got there.
Apparently, these shirts are a give-away for donating to Wounded Warrior foundation (or some other troop focused charity) and are frequently found at second-hand clothing stores. I thought it was in really poor taste, and will be avoiding hanging out with them in the future, due to this, and other comments made that evening.
I can only assume that if they knew what I thought about things, they would want me dead, too.
man really cooked with this one
