    Everyone who has strong opinions like yourself feel morally superior. Your year of life dedicated to online discourse on a NBA message board about the evils of trans people is you feeling morally superior.

    The difference of course is the lack of self-awareness from your part.

    Please do not spread lies. I never said "trans people are evil". That is not my opinion, and the statement would be an incorrect generalization.

    You keep putting words in people's mouths they never said.

    Just like when you claim that I said "Muslims are evil".

    I oppose certain elements of certain ideological activism (particularly the ones that are opposed to freedom of thought, parental rights, freedom from ideological indoctrination), but that neither means that I hate groups of people nor that I think members of certain groups are "evil".

    I don't need to put words in your mouth.

    Pograms in Eastern Europe that massacred Jewish communities didn't get to the point because people explicit say word for word "I hate Jews".

    No it was hate expressed through continuous anecdotes and conspiracies of Jewish people doing bad things and conspiracies of Jewish people organizing to control narratives and agendas just like you ere doing by claiming a "trans grooming agenda". Someone can spread all these narratives of a agenda and not once say "I hate Jews". But we all know they hate Jews.

    Your hate of trans people is expressed in your time dedication in finding every act of a trans person doing a bad thing in human society.

    You have posted every negative action a trans individual in human society has done on a NBA team fan message board.

    That's hate and and a lack of self-awareness combined into this toxic brew you are spewing.

    You know how police departments have blotters that release publicly every crime documented in their jurisdiction?

    Your Houston Rockets team fan message board account is effectively a police blotter of trans people which is weird and should be a dead giveaway of your hatred for trans people.

    And the same applies to Muslims. Your decade long activism against Muslim immigration on a Houston Rockets NBA team message board is odd and a obvious sign of mental health issues and hatred of a religious group.

    According to your "logic", people cannot voice disagreement with certain ideologies without that being an "obvious sign of mental health issues and hatred of a group", and "your Houston Rockets team fan message board account is effectively a police blotter of [people who belong to an ideology that the poster opposes] which is weird and should be a dead giveaway of your hatred for these people".

    So does that mean you hate conservatives, you want to see them massacred, the police should be watching you because of your leftist posts on a Houston Rockets message board and on Reddit (and probably other places)?

    Seems like there is an awful lot of projection going on here...

    Voicing disagreement about an "ideology" when the ideology is merely the desire to exist is definitely a take.

    Conservativism is an actual ideology unlike "transgenderism". The same exact language was used by bigots when discussing gay rights and basic civil rights for colored folks. The framing of those desires as an "ideology" is a common tactic by bigots like you.

    Just like how bigots claimed that Jewish people in Europe siding with revolutionaries like Napoleon is based on an "ideology" of domination rather than merely siding with people who promised them they aren't going to pogram them. The whole "all Jews are Bolsheviks" conspiracy uses the same exact mindset you are using. Labeling their fight for basic existence as an "ideology"... Same exact energy as the Fallwels of the world spamming the term "the Gay Agenda" into the media.

    Nobody here is questioning the right to exist for transgender people or anyone else. Again, you are making stuff up, as always.

    As to trans ideology, it's clearly a movement.

    https://www.economist.com/united-st...s-distorting-the-training-of-americas-doctors

    United States | Medical schools and gender
    Trans ideology is distorting the training of America’s doctors
    Fear and ignorance are infecting medical education

    Gender dysphoria, the often agonising feeling that one has been born in the wrong body, is listed in the American Psychiatric Association’s “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders”. So Katherine (not her real name) was surprised, in her first week at Louisiana State University School of Medicine, when a lecturer told a class that gender dysphoria was not a mental illness. It suggested that gender-identity ideology, which holds that transgender women are women and trans men are men, had influenced some of those who were training her to be a doctor.

    More evidence followed. An endocrinologist told a class that females on testosterone had a similar risk of heart attack to males (they have a much higher risk). Debate about all this was apparently off-limits. How has trans ideology made its way into medical schools?

    Professional bodies, including the American Academy of Paediatrics, have endorsed “gender-affirmative” care, which accepts patients’ self-diagnosis that they are trans. This can mean the prescription of puberty blockers for children as young as nine. Trans medicine is not a core part of medical schools’ curriculums. But an academic paediatrician (who did not want her name, institution or state to appear in this story) says that all medical students understand that they are expected to follow the affirmation model “uncritically and unquestioningly”. For most doctors that will mean referring a patient to a gender clinic, some of which prescribe blockers or cross-sex hormones on a first visit. “We treat infections with antibiotics, no questions asked—it is just exactly like that,” she says.

    Affirmative care has done irreversible harm to some young people’s bodies. This has become especially clear from the experience of “detransitioners” who regret taking hormones or having their breasts or genitals removed. Puberty blockers also prevent bones from developing properly; when combined with cross-sex hormones they can lead to infertility and inability to have an orgasm. A 26-year-old student at a medical school in Florida who plans to become a paediatrician is shocked by what she has not been taught about these treatments. “With other diseases and treatments we are taught in such depth about every possible side-effect,” she says.

    Medical-school academics suggest two reasons for all this. One (reflected in the fact that none wanted their names published) is fear. Some trans-rights activists bully anyone who expresses concerns publicly. The other is ignorance. A paediatrician who teaches at a medical school in Florida says once doctors have finished their training, many pay scant attention to new medical research but rely on the media for information. In America there has been little coverage of the dangers of blockers or the woes of detransitioners.

    Last year Marci Bowers, a surgeon (and trans woman) who performs vaginoplasties and phalloplasties, said she no longer approved of the use of puberty blockers because they left surgeons with too little genital material to work with and led to a loss of sexual function. This, extraordinarily, appeared to surprise some gender-clinic medics. Ignoring the difference between biological sex and gender at medical school has other risks. Several diseases present differently in men and women or are more common in one sex than the other. A doctor who treats a trans man, say, as a man might miss something important.

    Katherine, the student in Louisiana, worries about the effects on female patients. As a black woman, she is acutely aware that “when physicians have an implicit bias against black people, it leads to poorer delivery of care”. Gender-identity ideology, with the use of such terms as “bodies with vaginas” in medical journals, has “increased bias against women by normalising dehumanising language and by ginning up hatred of women who assert their boundaries”. She is concerned that doctors who have absorbed these views during training may be less likely to deliver high-quality care to female patients.

    She also worries that gender ideology is impeding the development of medical students’ critical judgment. “It’s a problem”, she says, “when doctors start believing that they can simply ignore medical evidence and scientific facts that they don’t like.”

    No surprise there. I bet if you polled America DeSantis and Abbott would top worst governor's in the country.

    DeSantis just got re-elected by a high margin over his Democratic opponent.

    The same people who say that now were also saying he did that before the election. And then he won.

    I don't think he will win the nomination against Trump, though. His only chance is that something else happens to Trump.

    No, he has definitely been taking larger and sloppier dumps on himself post election. He is literally a pig in ****.

    How so? What other governors have shielded their public travel records under the guise of their safety?

    All depends on whether you think DeSantis is being truthful or not..... I clearly don't based on his history.
