Lol no, you haven’t. Because if you had you’d know that kids getting actual irreversible gender surgery are a vast minority of trans kids, yet Fox news acts and preaches that they’re somehow the vast majority. Most left leaning people (myself included) are also hesitant to against having someone under the age of 18 go through irreversible surgery.

Which you completely ignored because you only regurgitated what your talking points told you to. When really most of us simply want people to live freely, how they want to, without the government telling them what they can or can’t do. If a kid wants to wear a dress who cares? If a girl decides she would rather wear jeans and a tshirt and get a buzz cut literally who cares. That therapy around gender issues should be accessible to everyone, that’s the actual issue.

But keep listening to Fox news who tells you that we’re coming after kids with a scalpel while burning a bible. Seriously, read some other sources.

No, you really haven’t. Nobody is “mutilating” trans kids, and it’s because those kids can’t give consent.

I know you don’t like learning things but not all gender-affirming care is surgery/hormone therapy. Though one surgery that is gender affirming care is literally boob jobs for cis women (I’m guessing you aren’t hoping to ban that too) For pretty much all kids it’s literally just talking to a therapist about their issues; something you should consider doing!

Aren’t these the types that ramble on about “parental rights” too? If the child, parent/s, and doctor all agree then what’s the fuss? I know they don’t actually give a shit but their hypocrisy is exhausting. Not to mention we’re talking about a very, very small minority of children getting gender affirming surgery. If it were a genuine problem (it isn’t) I’d say we have much more important matters to address than a few teenagers getting implants

I went to high school with girls who got nose jobs. No one talked about them being mutilated.

I’d also like to know if you feel the same way about circumcision.

And yet no one is accusing teenage girls who get nose jobs of mutilating themselves. Except maybe you. But you’d be a big exception.

You know what, your side doesn’t get to talk about mutilating kids until you get your collective head out of your collective ass about guns.

Kids are actually being mutilated by those.

Wait until you find out that they give children with cancer literal poison. It’s called chemotherapy. Let me know if you would like me to decide if your child can consent to chemotherapy. I’ll be happy to step in and make that decision for you.

I know of children that are alive right now because of chemotherapy its actually really easy to research and is in many cases the only option or death, I dont think supplements cure cancer.

And not letting kids live with the gender they feel they are leads to some of them committing suicide, so, how about we save them too?

You know full well that they can’t have surgery until 18, you’re just spreading deliberate misinformation. It’s pathetically transparent that you are just straight up lying.

Did you even bother to read your own source?

“Jay Langadinos, now 31, was just 19 when she first met Dr. Patrick Toohey, a veteran Sydney psychiatrist, in May 2010.”

Conservatives don’t actually care about kids at all. Which is why they’re fine with forced child marriage, fine with forced “corrective” surgery on intersex kids that they always put an exception in for their anti-trans bills, and fine with girls getting breast enlargement surgeries.

Because it’s not about protecting kids or “consent”, it’s about having a new boogeyman to fight against, now that it’s at least slightly more morally objectionable to go after gay people, though that’s not stopping them from trying there either.

Oh yeah we all know that (except for some obvious exceptions in this thread). It’s always been about keeping the masses mad at each other so the top can take their share.

(Replace foreigner with any marginalized group and you’ll have the GoP’s talking points)

Gay people got married and became boring suburanites and became too conservative for conservatives to vilify anymore.

Trans people are now the sex-orgy demons who only live in cities and are hellbent on destroying society.

I wouldn’t put it past them to come after the rest of the alphabet eventually. You know, “first they came for the bla bla”. We might not be first in the oven but they’ll burn us all given the chance.

There are plenty of conservative gay/lesbians who hate bisexual and trans people.

Conservatives are obsessed with social conformity and rule-following. They hate change, difference, and those who don’t ‘fit in’. Trans people don’t fit into the neat binary of male/female and don’t follow strict gender roles. So by definition they are evil/bad/wrong/corrupting and a ‘symbol of social decay’ or whatever.

Conservatives see the existence of trans people as violation of the social order/contract or as unnatural. They see them being endorsed by the govt as fully fledged human beings as an offense to their beliefs and a threat to to their way of life. So they lean into this outrage narrative by pushing/magnifying any story they can that trans people and their supporters as ‘brainwashing’ children and they pull out the who ‘groomer’ thing because they see pedophilia as the ULTIMATE EVIL that anyone who is disagrees with them must be guilty of, because disagreeing with them is evil in their minds.

The rest is just the false narrative they construct to further solidify their views that trans people and trans supporters are evil. So they go on about children being forced to change sex and being ‘multilated’ by sex changes ops. None of which actually happens, but you can’t let the boring facts of reality get in the way of your narrative about how trans people and trans supporters (and the big bag government!) are raping and physically mutilating the poor innocent children who need to be rescued by the brave strong heroic conservative who will restore the natural order and throw all these evil child abusers in jail!

Conservatives live miserable lives with painfully fake smiles, and take offense when someone decides to embrace who they are instead of towing the miserable line. “It’s not faaaiiir” when other people don’t have to be miserable like them, and so they set out to rectify that.

These are the same people that advocate nothing in society should ever improve, that suffering is always deserved, and that we should always work to regress to less civilized times.

After leaving my (very conservative) home, and going back every so often and talking to my family, I think this is it. Especially for the older ones, I get a sense of regret from them that they didn’t live how they wanted or couldn’t do what they wanted. Since they don’t want to blame themselves and/or the culture, they blame their vilified minority du jour. It’s sad really. Going home and talking to my parents always just makes me sad about how I can tell they have some pretty big regrets about taking the “expected” path.
