"Gender affirming care" is not castration. But then, you know that. It's more about focusing on their mental and emotional health. But you know that too. But those two facts don't generate the level of outrage the Right needs as much as it needs oxygen to breathe. And you know that too. But as long as you're throwing out a little red meat to keep the Beast fed and misinformed, the rest of us stay entertained.......

I agree with the sentiment, but honestly I think most right wingers who consume the propaganda don't actually know the truth from reality. You've got media with massive audience reach from Fox News to Ben Shapiro, Tim Pool, and Matt Walsh all lying to the public, saying that gender affirming care means any little boy can go into a clinic without their parents knowing and get his dick cut off. Those media outlets know they're lying, but most people are not about to do their own critical thinking, so they go on believing it.

So, I would not be surprised if jonny and beasty actually think this shit is true. Never ascribe to malice what can be explained by stupidity.

Puberty blocking treatments are simply “focusing on mental health”?
You are downplaying this to an extreme degree whether you know it or not.

If it makes them feel better about what they themselves believe (or actually KNOW) their sexuality to be. Then of course it is. Hard to have good physical health without good mental health and vice versa.

This is the medical definition. Right wingers stirring up a panic do not mean it in this way. They are trying to get people to believe that the kids are being irreversibly damaged.

You are dancing around this in a dishonest way, trying to appease both sides without going off the rails to the left, or having the ‘gang’ here disown you.

Giving a child puberty blockers is not ok. That’s it.

More like defending established medical science from right-wing propaganda talking points

It’s not science. It’s liberal degenerates projecting their own mental illnesses onto children as a way to legitimize it. It’s sick. You’re sick. No legitimate doctors approve of this garbage. Walk into any hospital and take a poll.

What is your solution if a child started experiencing gender dysphoria?
 
Stop with the personal attacks. Stop with using words that again and again posters have been asked not to use here. If, you keep doing it, you risk being kicked out of thread or facing a temporary or permanent ban from the forum.

Then I guess I am even more confused than ever about just what it is parents on the Right actually want. They want to ban books that they themselves deem "inappropriate". They want to take a draconian hand in the public education of their children (if they even want public education at all). They are proud to do away with Child Labor laws. They have no problem arming children of all ages (See Kyle Rittenhouse). They'd rather let school kids go hungry than use their taxes to feed them. The list just goes on and on. But now parents have NO say in their child's mental, emotional and physical wellbeing????? The "state" gets to be the parent??? Talk about trying to have it both ways. I'm not now nor have I ever been a dancer (ask my wife). I thought I was making myself pretty clear. And as far as getting "disowned", c'mon, I disagree with at least half the shit you throw out but I'd still be more than glad to have a beer with you, just as I would with just about everyone on this board. Unfortunately, I don't think Beast is of legal age yet......

No. Not madly in love with either side. Absolutely detest the Republican nominee and can't imagine the Democrats putting forth a nominee that I would detest more. The current nominee is vastly superior in nearly every way. Even though she is incredibly low on the list of people I would prefer as president.

When the Republicans picked Trump, they removed any ability for me to make a choice. I have to vote for the Democrat. Unless they put forth a Democrat who has engaged in traderous activity publicly.

I understand your position, and respect it.

For many people, including myself. Neither option is acceptable. So the choice becomes one of issues that are the most important to each individual. Not trying to figure which candidates are the least evil.

Based on the results of Tuesdays elections. One issue that appears to be important is crime. Candidates that backed defunding the police, and being soft on crime, did not do well. Not sure if this trend will carry over into the pres election results?

Only because too many people either misunderstood what "defunding the police" actually meant, or they twisted for their own political purposes. Anyone with common sense who makes an actual effort to parse out what was actually meant by the term originally realizes it isn't quite the "issue" some are bending over backward to make it into.

That is another instance of a corrupt system forcing the population to accept policy that is proven ineffective, more expensive, and downright harmful even though less expensive policy that has been proven effective is available.
