  • They weren’t lying. You’re spreading misinformation that’s killing children, which is bad. And continually refuse to engage with anything other than your preconceived opinions when literally everyone is disagreeing with you, which is small-minded.

    Also, I’ll point out, you’re playing the victim here. While perpetuating rhetoric that’s literally killing children. A bit DARVO, imo. Definitely not good faith arguments. Can’t blame anyone for not wanting to engage with you.




  • Hormones absolutely affect more than cosmetic things.

    I started hormone replacement therapy 2 months ago. I spent four decades before that wanting to commit suicide.

    I still mostly look like a man and my mental health has vastly improved. I’m less defensive less reactionary more open. I get a long better with everybody in my life.

    Including myself.

    Being congruent with your gender both chemically and socially helps people feel more joy happiness and self-acceptance.

    That is not cosmetic and you have no idea what you’re talking about.

    Like I said in an earlier comment you’re not a doctor. And you cite doctors that aren’t specialists in the field who have an agenda.

    Seriously mind your own business and let parents and doctors that actually understand this stuff take care of kids that need life-saving treatment.

    And while you’re at it maybe look up the study that was just done about how suicide rates in trans youth are 70% higher states deny health care to trans youth.

    In other words educate yourself before having an opinion about something you know nothing about.




  • I think whoever framed the presumption of innocence and proof beyond a reasonable doubt felt that way.

    Jurors themselves are complicated. Some people are racist, some people are just hateful, some people respect authority so much that they’ll just believe whatever the district attorney says. All of these conditions can create a situation where the jury won’t reach consensus easily .

    And pretty much everybody just wants to get back to brunch and taking care of their families.

    I think what you are speaking to is values. What I’m talking about is emotions as they are felt in the moment and how those will affect a jury’s outcome.

    Hence people are not computers.
