They weren't lying. You're spreading misinformation that's killing children, which is bad. And continually refuse to engage with anything other than your preconceived opinions when literally everyone is disagreeing with you, which is small-minded.

Also, I'll point out, you're playing the victim here. While perpetuating rhetoric that's literally killing children. A bit DARVO, imo. Definitely not good faith arguments. Can't blame anyone for not wanting to engage with you.

It's transphobic garbage.

Hormones are cosmetic, was their comment. This person does not believe in medicine, biology, or science. Only their transphobic garbage.

When are mods going to start banning people for this stuff? It seriously kills kids. It's like COVID misinformation.

The Cass report has been thoroughly debunked. This is the exact report I was referring to when I talked about Drs with agendas commenting on things they're not experts on.

Here's an article discussing the recent study that demonstrates how gender-affirming care bans are killing trans kids.

And several articles debunking the report you keep motioning towards.

And let's get real here. You're the same poster that believes hormones are cosmetic. So you don't believe in science, biology, or medicine. Or are just blantantly transphobic and let whatever non-sense fall out of your mouth that you think will prove your point. Who's really harming kids here? I hope you get banned, fr.

Hormones absolutely affect more than cosmetic things.

I started hormone replacement therapy 2 months ago. I spent four decades before that wanting to commit suicide.

I still mostly look like a man and my mental health has vastly improved. I'm less defensive less reactionary more open. I get a long better with everybody in my life.

Including myself.

Being congruent with your gender both chemically and socially helps people feel more joy happiness and self-acceptance.

That is not cosmetic and you have no idea what you're talking about.

Like I said in an earlier comment you're not a doctor. And you cite doctors that aren't specialists in the field who have an agenda.

Seriously mind your own business and let parents and doctors that actually understand this stuff take care of kids that need life-saving treatment.

And while you're at it maybe look up the study that was just done about how suicide rates in trans youth are 70% higher states deny health care to trans youth.

In other words educate yourself before having an opinion about something you know nothing about.

Noise in a RNG. Hungry, more likely to give into majority opinion so I can get back to brunch!

The vast majority of doctors that specialize in gender care and endocrinology disagree with that small minority of doctors who aren't specialists in this field.

It's like asking a dentist for their opinion on brain surgery. They're not qualified to have one.

Maybe they just want a future where billionaires aren't burning down the planet.

Course they could pick up pitchforks and take matters into their own hands. Quit blaming other people for their problems right?

I thought that was the GOP

I mean the first person to come to mind when I heard victim mentality was Donald Trump.

I think whoever framed the presumption of innocence and proof beyond a reasonable doubt felt that way.

Jurors themselves are complicated. Some people are racist, some people are just hateful, some people respect authority so much that they'll just believe whatever the district attorney says. All of these conditions can create a situation where the jury won't reach consensus easily .

And pretty much everybody just wants to get back to brunch and taking care of their families.

I think what you are speaking to is values. What I'm talking about is emotions as they are felt in the moment and how those will affect a jury's outcome.

Hence people are not computers.

And you sound like Tucker Carlson to me.

If you're not a doctor or a parent of trans youth how about you mind your own business and stop being so weird.

Or do you not believe in small government?

Just asking questions here.

They're suing now. Should they have put up an armed militia?
