J.D. Vance's pre-nomination Xitter account was following a few, too. No one cared then either. White Nationalism has been the Conservative standard for centuries.

For cisheteronormative Western traditional reasons they're fine with straight people changing their names and identities whenever they want, but will pretend queer people should be excluded from this right.

He blocked me, but I've no idea why. All I did was suggest his obtusely suggest his "journalism" is financially motivated and that he doesn't actually care about childrens' health.

1 You're not reporters. You're filler for corporate infotainment 2 If you cared about pediatric medicine, you'd do something about elective natal circumcision in the US and its 10,000 injuries per year instead of moral panicking whether a kid's being treated for body dysmorphia or gender dysmorphia.

"54%" isn't "most", it's about "half" and it's based on a telephone survey of 1,011 Boomers who still have landlines in 2024. The same survey says Biden had a 66% approval, Obama 84%, W 61% and Clinton 67%. The best you can say is Trump beat his own high score from 2016 (40%). "Echo chamber" my ass!

There is no "natural age" for puberty, there's just an accepted average. The youngest recorded natural pregnancy is four years old.

Compare the NHS's elective pediatric treatments of body dysmorphia caused early puberty and gender dysmorphia in trans patients. Puberty blockers are simultaneously fine and untested medications that may cripple patients based on their identity. If they're so dangerous why aren't they banned?

"I have questions" Please ask them! Sincere curiosity, here or in my messages, is always welcome. I've left out some common "concerns" and responses to "moral panics" and I'll update this thread as best I can.

"I don't understand you" That's fine. Sometimes, WE don't understand us. We aren't a monolith; we're people. You don't have to, but you don't have to make our lives harder because you don't. Failure is human; cruelty isn't.

All sexual violence must be condemned, but why are faith and community leaders and politicians ignoring thousands of attacks while spending taxpayer funds to "combat" 3 instances of people feeling comfortable? Segregation won't stop sexual violence, it sanctions state violence.

"Protect women's spaces!" The @FRCdc reviewed nearly 20 years of reports and found less than 1 incident of any kind in a restroom per year, and only 3 of those reports involved trans people. Compare this to the 7,000 known sexual assaults occurring in churches over 20 years.

Cishetnormative culture has sexualized minors for decades. Popular culture fetishization is the reason some of the most popular adult content categories are "schoolgirl", "teen", and "stepdaughter". Your sexualization of children is a YOU problem.

"It's an excuse for perversion!" 1: Your browser history needs to be sent to the FBI. 2. Elective pediatric HRT requires months of doctor visits before, during, and after treatment. These are the most protected kids on Earth under multiple doctors' care.

"Woke Hollywood" is making kids [moral panic]. My favorite childhood LGBTQ+ characters: Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Uncle Bob from Terminator 2. Murphy from RoboCop. Trans, ace, and enby, respectively. I was 20 when LGBTQ+ themes went mainstream.

"They're too young to have surgery!" There are over 250,000 reported invasive elective cosmetic pediatric surgeries performed in the US every year that you don't care about. 2020 was the last year they publicly stated minors regularly get invasive elective cosmetic surgery.

Compare the NHS's Early Puberty and the Gender Dysphoria treatment guides. The language goes from "You'll be fine, this is standard care" to "You're risking permanent injuries!" for the same diagnosis, duration of treatment, and medication based on how the patient identifies.

Elective puberty blockers were developed to treat early-onset puberty, and they are still legal to prescribe to every c!s child on Earth to prevent body dysmorphia. A form of mental distress that can be resolved by making sure the patient is comfortable with their body.

The average age of people receiving elective penectomies is 25. The minimum age to receive one anywhere in the US is 18.

Natal and pediatric gender mutilation was popularized by a millionaire quack in the 1870s to keep kids from enjoying sex. Yes, like many awful things society accuses minorities of promoting, it was started by a rich cishet white man who was terrible at sex.
comment in response to post
There are an estimated 10,000 pediatric genital mutilation-related injuries, including castration, each year in the US. Scarring, infertility, and permanent loss of function are common. These occur during the elective cosmetic surgery performed on babies called "circumcision".

He famously challenged the UN to provide him with a world hunger ending budgeted action plan and, when they did, he said it was everyone's problem and he shouldn't be forced to fix their problems; as if he lives in a world where he could (A) ever run out of money or (B) even actually do the work.

He blamed the X HQ landlord for not letting him convert the ground floors into a homeless shelter, but he frequently refuses to pay rent and we all know how much actual capital he'd put into creating AND maintaining shelters before he'd either get bored or bow to naysayers and let it crumble.

He promised that his Boring Company's waste would be used to build low-cost housing (thank you for donating your garbage to the cause), but that was based on metro centers inundated with vehicular traffic spending billions to make underground single lane tunnels that would make the problem worse.

Their founders were also accused of raping a woman. "Rules for thee, but not for me" all day long.

Mike Moon will decry trans youth as confused victims groomed by the public existance of LGBTQ people while defending his support child brides, over 80% of which are minor girls married off to adult men. These are just the ones I can remember off the top of my head, too...
