Nobody is using these medications without a thorough process of both medical and psychological counseling, just like hormone replacement therapy. If anybody’s being disingenuous, it’s you.

I have a genetic condition called Klinefelter’s Syndrome. I’m technically intersexed, albeit in a way that doesn’t make all that much difference to my outward appearance. In my case, I didn’t get the hormone treatments that probably would’ve made me a more masculine person, but I think that in the rush to prevent…

Wow so you know what Trans people experience? Must be amazing to be able to step into somebody’s life like that.

It may serve some value simply by informing people that there isn’t any point to it. I certainly wondered if there was something bigger going on, and I’m sure a lot of people would look at it and think there might be a statement here or some reasoning behind the meme’s explosion. Being told “nah, it was just a dumb…

What I love to point out is that minors are allowed to join the military and die.

But apparently, when a 2 year old asks their parents when they can go back to the hospital to “get their girl parts”, that’s just a confused kid who clearly lacks the ability to recognize that that’s wrong of them to think that... and…

So minors can’t receive any medical care because they can’t consent.

Also this bill makes any expression of gender exploration punishable under the law. If an amab kid wears a skirt to school, the teacher is legally required to report it to CPS. That's super fucked up.

By your (non)logic, minors should not receive any sort of medical or psychiatric care because they are not in a position to consent or to consider the health ramifications of their choices. That take is so disingenuous, and condescending to youth, to the point of being insulting.

Gender affirming healthcare doesn’t just include hrt and surgery. Puberty blockers only delay the onset of puberty changes, which can give teenagers the time to explore their identity without the onset of physical changes that cannot be reversed.

Look into the etymology of the term. As a logical fallacy, its weakness comes from *failing to address an accusation* by means of attempting to re-orient a conversation towards ills perpetrated by the accuser. This article is NOT attempting to re-orient the conversation. Russia is in the wrong and this article makes…

hmmm pretty sure it’s just supposed to be cool.

“Killing civilians is bad” is a moral stance, not a political one, tovarish.

STICK TO SPROTS

I’m sorry are we supposed not to point out the obvious racism in the different handling of various invasions? This is not “whataboutism”, whataboutism is about ignoring an issue by desperately pointing out another that’s unrelated. The Ukraine invasion is not unrelated, it’s literally the evidence for the media’s…

This guy really thinks the US government is really pretty alright 

who is mike pondsmith. keanu reeves invented this genre.

idk what the best response to whataboutism is, but I’m pretty sure it isn’t *defending the war on terror*.

pls no politics in my cyberpunk game. this is a non-political genre.

My favorite so far

“lol, those OTHER fighting game players are a bunch of stinky nerds, not like us super chads who play a DIFFERENT fighting game, amirite?”
