Current Events > Texas Supreme Court allows law banning trans care for minors

(+) Yeah! (+)

Heres one Texan chiming in to say this law is bullshit, gender-affirming care is very obviously in the best interest of people who are transgender, and there are no reasons for this law other than ignorance and cruelty.

None of what I have said is radical nor should it be considered so.

So, I can be wrong, and as such I should run?

You should maybe reevaluate your position and come back when it comports with reality.

Don't care where you go, as it's shown you're not serious about this discussion, just want people to be riled up for your amusement. That's your aim, plain and simple. That is not healthy or normal internet discourse, despite what you think.

Hello fellow Texan. We're both in the same boat under the hopelessly corrupt government here.

Damn this was a great watch. It's nice to see BS like what she spoke get shut down.

Seriously, why is government getting involved in something that should be clearly between patients and their doctors?

That's a 3rd for the Lone Star State. Hoping this position I get in February gets me away from this shit hole.

Again, suicide post op are equal to pre op, so claiming it helps more than it does harm is simply not true.

Not true. Suicide rates post op drop, but are still higher than the general population.

This doesn't speak to transitioning being the problem, it's people like you that want people like me to not be allowed to exist in public spaces.

Nazanir posted...

I think it is a rising problem, yes. And I fear it will be much worse in years to come.

The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge. - Isaac Asimov

Time for the "nuanced" liberals to come in and tell everyone to stop acting as extreme as the Republicans

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

And the closeted ones to die too. Then they can point at the 0% suicide rate and claim victory because you can't have trans suicide rates if trans people aren't allowed to exist.

There's a lot of accepted medical care with far less guaranteed success than transitioning and no one concerned about science and innocent lives ever bats an eye.

I wonder why.

Think of all the advertisements for medicine that warn of increased risk of suicide and death among other major side effects

and this mf is concerned about a tiny fraction who might detransition for any number of reasons

Okay, how long did it take for we realized asbestos was not that good to put into walls?

Equating people transitioning to fucking asbestos? Fuck off Transphobe. Marked.

And try to act like all of them do so out of "regret" when the vast majority do so because they have no support structure.

And who else remembers Nazzy trying to peddle known pro-Trump falsehoods only to have it proven wrong and for him to flee? How long before he flees from his multiple anti-trans talking points here?

The Admiral was doing this bit years ago. Saying all us crazy libs will be appalled that we supported transition when it becomes viewed in hindsight as worse than lobotomies.

Sadly, it is not hard to imagine someone with so much hatred in their heart to do this. Way too many truly evil humans like him around.

i wonder how many of these people genuinely think they're helping kids and how many of them are just literally evil

Seems like he already has, dude folded the second he was asked for actual proof of his claims.

Typical spineless transphobe.

Next year when trans suicides spike theyll wonder why

actually they wont care

They'll care. The problem is that to them that's a feature of the legislation rather than a bug.

Ah, that's illuminating. I checked about 20 minutes ago and he was still active.

Oh well, good riddance. Try not being a transphobe next time.

Or try to peddle more falsehoods about how accepting trans individuals and allowing them to transition is actually super bad?

Yes, that's what it wants to do.

You have anything else to add? It's not an echo chamber if the actual facts are one sided. Which they are in this case.

Man nothing rustles this board's jimmies quite like reading the words "echo chamber" does

Explaining how it isn't an echo chamber counts as having jimmies rustled? That doesn't make much sense, but OK.

I guess same question to you, do you have anything of substance to add, or just trolling?

Nothing rustles your jimmies more than transpeople being treated with respect does it?

Looking to get this alt moderated for transphobia eventually too are ya?

Remind us again how not mad you are that you can't be transphobic.

It's pretty funny that the response to getting pushback on an idea is to complain about echo chambers. Sounds like the person complaining about getting pushback just wants an echo chamber.

If that dude had made the echo chamber post, you all ignored it, and this topic died with that as the last post, you would have all made him look like a real bitch. He would have proven himself wrong with literally no effort from anyone.

Instead 8 different people decided to emotionally dogpile saying the exact same thing on a 10 word post with half those words being "echo".

Surprisingly, the one of the guys complaining about echo chambers thinks the way for us to have proven the echo chamber comment wrong is to stop talking about the topic they don't like.
