How trans activism became the new religion of the left

[DGUtley]

If it was just a tranny show a couple times a semester I would agree. But convincing kids that they want to transition to the next gender is going way too far.

Isolating them from and lying to the parents (or encouraging them to) is a exponentially way too far.

The only reason politicians have gotten involved is because something has interjected itself between the parents-doctors-and the child. Teachers, teacher unions, and other groomers. Without these activists the number of kids who would even consider this would drop to a very small fraction.

You attempt to deny agency to the young people involved. Educate yourself.

Lots of things presage the collapse of the human race. Personally, I think petty greed and a lack of understanding of the web of life will result in the collapse of the human race. If we can't get our collective shiit together, then we might as well sign off and let Nature take its course.

Greed ain't it. When 20% of the population takes itself out of the breeding pool I think it is over.

I wonder what is causing it?

[MisterVeritis]

If anything it has become a fad.

I don't think that is it. It is an easy answer but likely the wrong one.

[MisterVeritis]

Maybe if enough did it. But then we probably could test tube enough replacement babies if we wanted to.

One-fifth of the young have voluntarily removed themselves from the breeding pool. That is equivalent to WWI level casualties.

I can't think of a single reason why a school system would have any right to do anything other than suggest to the parents that they may want to see outside counseling for these reasons.

Just like any other job there are a certain number that don't take employment for the reasons that they were hired.

The number spike is caused by grooming.

We posted an article in a thread a while ago from a shrink in the UK who says most kids who think they want to be another gender quickly grow out of it. Many docs agree. If you let them transition at the first sign of confusion, it is too late when they get right in the head/.

Hey. I like spicy. And I slid far down the right side of that bell curve.

But then, if you grew up with my mom's cooking, you'd like lots of hot sauce too.

If I grew up with your "moms cooking" I am inclined to believe you'd be an only child , eh?

Everyone is somebody's "only child "

If I had grown up in your home competing for your moms cooking I'd ask myself two questions

#1. Why hasn't Peter noticed there is a stranger growing up in the house? Is the coffee that good around here or is Pete harboring an anti freeze fetish?

#2. What "anti -freeze"?

No idea why, but seems true, Bub. I do know one thing. Every transhomo created will vote dem for life.

A lesser appreciated aspect of political office is the luxury of voting for yourself
