RE: Nike is celebrating Pride Month by partnering up with a doctor who performs mastectomies on adolescent girls
@raphjd your tangent on the inequities of Scottish serial-rapist law notwithstanding, do you still believe that the 5% should dictate what happens to the 95%?

If an 8yo is completely competent enough to take puberty blockers and get bits chopped off without parental consent,
This is indicative of how you mix truth with fiction. Saying an 8-year-old can determine whether or not they take medication is not the same as an 8-year-old deciding they can have surgery .....which does not happen by the way. Point to one guideline established by anyone of your hated medical authorities that says surgery can and does happen before the age of 14.

@raphjd so to use your trans people-serial rapist comparison (since that comparison apparently comes easy to you) if I were to ask you at what age you believed serial rapists actually "became" serial rapists (as a defect in their minds) you would probably say by the ages of 12 or 13. The age when most people realize that hurting other people is wrong is about 8 to 10, if not way earlier. That seems to be the age when people start to form ideas of whether they identify as male or female, wouldn't you agree

@raphjd it's fascinating that as a point of comparison you use a trans person undergoing transitive care along with a serial rapist. You could have easily compared a person undergoing transitive care to somebody signing a complex legal document such as a contract (you even briefly mentioned it) but that wasn't the highlight of your comment, which was criminals conducting crimes. That is fascinating in and of itself.
I would agree with you that there is a preferable degree of rational thinking which comes along with having an adult brain as compared to having an adolescent one. Ideally we would allow people to make these decisions when they are adults, but puberty happens when it happens.....if puberty happened at age 30 then everyone would be starting trans care at 28. But unfortunately the body doesn't work that way. And I think 95% of people successfully undergoing trans care is a good reason to allow it to continue, regardless the mental age of the person choosing to receive that care.

RE: Nike is celebrating Pride Month by partnering up with a doctor who performs mastectomies on adolescent girls
@raphjd it's interesting that you don't have a number to give me.
Let's pick a really high number. let's say 25% detransition. Now would you agree that the reason for that de-transition would be important to know? Let's say of that 25% number, 40% de-transitioned for financial reasons. And let's say that 20% de-transition because they were pressured by a parent or caregiver, and another 20% because of adverse side effects from the medication. Now let's say the final 20% detransition because they realize that's not what they wanted. So our initial number of 25% upon examination showed that only 5% really changed their minds, with the others having their minds changed for them either because of a parent, financial, or side effect reasons.
So does that 5% justify stopping the other 95% from having these services? Does that seem fair having the minority choose for the majority?

@raphjd said people don't always stick with it. We have routinely see people detrans.
What does "routinely" mean ....can we see some numbers? What percentage would you say change their minds?

why can't we force kids to wait until they are adults like we do with everything else?
Because the nature of trans care, which is prohibiting or lessening the appearances of male/female characteristics, is hugely affected by the changes that come during late adolescence. Being able to stop these changes before they've begun or solidified by adulthood means less medication having to be administered which is better for bodies undergoing these changes.

RE: Search for Titan was a 'nightmarish charade' says James Cameron - and Biden Regime staged it
@raphjd I think that's already happened, when the Russian flagship Moskva was sunk last year. And I remember thinking how sad it was for those Russians who died, for something that they didn't deserve, thrust upon them by their president, a man who didn't care.

RE: Nike is celebrating Pride Month by partnering up with a doctor who performs mastectomies on adolescent girls
@MrMazda said There is a big difference between a surgery needed because you will die if you don't get it and an elective surgery that is done voluntarily, without any health complications if it does not get done and is irreversible.
For trans people, living in a body that does not align with how they feel in their minds is like a living death.
You have certainty that you are a male. now imagine having that same certainty but inside the body of a woman, how would you feel ? you would feel like that was a living death
@MrMazda said When it comes to trans kids, the trouble that I have is that many of them do not yet fully understand what it is that they want. They should at least be sure of what it is that they want, which usually doesn't happen until they are a bit older.
How many of those who have these types of treatments change their minds? do you think it's 50%? I would agree that that would be a large percentage.
But I think the actuality is closer to less than 1% who changed their minds. Does that 1% justify preventing the treatments for the other 99%?
an elective surgery that is done voluntarily, without any health complications if it does not get done and is irreversible.
This sounds a lot like circumcision. Would you agree that circumcisions should be decided on by the child receiving the circumcision, and not the parents?

@blablarg18
And why is someone who's lived in Mariposa county for over 45 years giving money to someone running for office in Ohio? And what about his donations to the Lincoln Project, a conservative, "never Trump" PAC? -
RE: Search for Titan was a 'nightmarish charade' says James Cameron - and Biden Regime staged it
@blablarg18 It seems the better argument to be made would be how the whole world wasted its energies focusing on the plight of five rich people being lost at sea while totally ignoring the plight of 700 poor people who died when their ship capsized off the coast of Greece.

- USA detected sound just like an implosion
Titan found -DIRECTLY BELOW- location ie. debris sink straight down (like original Titanic).
Known location (floor below) was FIRST PLACE TO LOOK.
So they detected the implosion but didn't say anything until an ROV was sent down which spotted the debris on the floor, confirming the earlier implosion. Meanwhile other assets continued the above water visual/audio search until the debris was spotted. That seems like a pretty efficient use of time to me.

RE: Report: FBI Groomed a 16-Year-Old With “Brain Development Issues” to Become a Terrorist
@blablarg18 Now that's more like it....The Intercept is a website we should be seeing a lot more links from... Good, solid reporting! Too bad most of their content is behind a paywall. But they're definitely a website people here should be reading a lot more often. As far as the FBI, all I can think of is "who watches the watchers?" It's good to see the intercept is doing its part

If you broadcast your shit to the world, then expect the world to respond.
Wouldn't your Methodist mother-in-law have something different to say about that world response? Those women's Twitter tirades certainly don't appear to follow the creed of "love one's neighbor as oneself".

If he was white yall libs would be fingering yourselves over dramatic Threat To Our Democracy(tm). Sorry u didn't get the chance.
The guy praised Hitler while claiming he wanted to kill Biden and take over the government. And he.... Wait for it.... played tennis! Quelle surprise!
I think I'm the one who should be telling you "I'm sorry you didn't get the chance" with this one. He must have seemed so promising at first, with his brown picture and exotic sounding name. But I tell ya, tennis racquets and nazi flags usually point towards MAGA-land.

I think I know which direction this one's going.
Student council and tennis?
Everyone knows lib-dem high schoolers prefer theater/band and track/cross country for their extracurricular.

And who was it? Sai Varshith Kandula.
Chesterfield Missouri, where Kandula is from, is a suburb west of St. Louis. According to the Rockwood School District, Kandula graduated from Marquette Senior High School in 2022. While he was there, he was involved in the student council during his sophomore year and the boy’s tennis team during his sophomore and junior years, the school district’s spokeswoman, Mary LaPak, said.

Cisgender Georgia parents arrested after starving 10-year-old son runs away begging for food
Two cisgender Georgia parents were arrested for child abuse and negligence after their starving 10-year-old son was found wandering their neighborhood looking for a grocery store where he could beg for food.
Griffin police arrested Tyler and Krista Schindley after their neighbors found their emaciated son lost in the streets on Friday, with the child begging cops to “please not make him go back.”

@raphjd said in /post/309556):
Apparently, reminding MEN that letting a baby suck on their "titties" ain't breast FEEDING is a crime.
Twitter is not a "reminder" service. If they want to be able to spew hate speech to people on Twitter then they should lobby their legislators to change back the law.
What happened to the good old days when people changed laws they didn't like, instead of complaining about them. When they get thousands of people all over the country marching in the streets like BLM did, then maybe their complaints are valid. Something tells me we're not going to see anytime soon thousands of Australians marching in the streets for these two ladies rights to harangue people on Twitter, two women who clearly don't understand the concept of MYOB.
