I support trans people's right to exist and to be able to live happy lives 🤘 ❤️ crazy how so many transphobes obsess over trans people. most of them haven't even met a trans person

Any transphobe I've had the misfortune of talking to has met a trans person. Most of them don't notice. One of them repeatedly hit on me.

I always equate these things just to human rights and the fact that someone is trans doesn't automatically negate their right to live or be happier or prosperous. The fact that they're trans should have no effect on basic human rights.

Idc about them existing. It's their choice and they have their own reasons which are not my business. Bullying them just for that choice is bad btw. However I do care about their communities constantly using their powers for bad (and often illegal) purposes such as harassment of religious groups. If that stops (and it won't) then we can talk about helping them. For now they look like generic gangs and should be met with high suspicion at all times.

My stance is as they say in Poland.

Not my monkeys, not my circus. I just dont care.

It doesn't affect me in the slightest, other than a minimal amount of the taxes i pay go towards treatment of their illness. Although, i find it slightly hypocritical that they are allowed to start changing gender before 18. Would seem that many other things should be allowed before 18 aswell in that case.

I can't speak as to Polish law, but kids are allowed to do quite a bit before the age of 18 in the US. Going on puberty blockers - to delay a puberty that could damn well be an irreversible scar on the psyche - is hardly an opening for a shakeup of the legal position of minors.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Not Polish, its just a Polish saying.

I'm not convinced that a kid can make that judgement. Certainly not before puberty. But that might just be my own unwavering feeling of comfort in my own sex talking.

If a doctor makes a judgement of it, then my opinion doesn't matter.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Puberty blockers aren't OTC, they're prescribed by doctors. The kid's not making the judgement so much as they're bringing up the medical issue to a professional.

I was diagnosed with depression at a fairly young age, just entering into my teens, but I only got in to see a psych to begin with because I was worried enough to self-advocate. Can't really imagine what it would be like if I was told that I was too young to understand depression and turned out on my metaphorical ass.

This is where I fall off with liberals. "Lose the Trans talking points, they are holding the DNC back."

How about first we try losing the DNC talking points. They've been in charge this whole time and I didn't see trans people allow fascism to wash over the states while they were at the head of the government.

Lose the gun talking point.

Dems be Beto O'Rourke'ing every election

This is the moment that O'Rourke lost texas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMVhL6OOuR0

2nd amendment can serve an important purpose, kill traitors who are violating the constitution.

Unfortunately, dems managed to convince people left-of-center to disarm, while the far-right have become the majority of gun owners.

Thanks, Democrats. You did the job for the fascists.

Gun are great. End fascism where the idea begins 🧠 by using the 2A

[–] AquaTofana@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I have been saying this for years, as someone who lives in Texas: If the Dems stopped talking about "taking away guns", then Progressive policies/candidates would win in landslide elections constantly.

I voted for Beto, donated to his campaign, had his yard sign, etc. But I knew that sound clip was going to haunt him forever.

That means anyone who supports the Trans Agenda also supports calling people psychopaths without a medical confirmation. Touche, dear gangsters.

Can't get the thoughts that this earth was made for psychopaths off my mind

I support the trans agenda, the gay agenda, the woke agenda, and the Hyena Agenda.
