This is my first comment on the sub; I've been frequenting the sub since before the reddit ban though.

Wow, this is utterly disturbing. I did not know the history of hormone drugs before this, how in the 30s and onwards was used to punish homosexuals, and then used in the 50s onwards to treat menopause in women and low testosterone in men, only to discover that these drugs can literally kill you via cardiac arrest. So now pharma corps are just selling their dysfunctional products to children and teens with gender dysphoria, most of whom would've grown up into happy and healthy gays. We've come full circle.

These companies literally are creating the best cash cow imaginable. Create an entire class of people dependent on your drug from childhood until their death, requiring your drug to keep their bodies conforming to their "gender" forever.

So much of the trans movement is being held up by big-pharma and fetishists. I'm completely and utterly shook.

Also sorry in advance to the mods. I'm new and I have no idea if my comment violates rules 2 or 3. :v

Welcome! Yeah those drugs and surgeries have a dark history.

You're right I think. They would have unloaded these obsolete drugs to treat any new disorder or disease, and they hit a cash cow with trans, b/c they need the drugs for life.

I was completely shook too reading this article. It really is terrifically researched.

And mainstream media follows suit. Who do you think pays for the ads on commercial TV?

I don't have TV, but my mother does. And I notice half the ads are for medicines. WHY are meds even advertised? Shouldn't a doctor recommend them? I guess they want people to call and ask for them.

I have yet to see one for "gender dysphoria" drugs, but I know it's coming.
