Let's pretend for a second that this isn't a 13-year-old talking about sexual fetishes on a board full of grown adults looking to indulge their sexual fetishes, yeah? Just pretend with me for a second.

Now that we've pretended away the huge elephant in the room, how is advocating for "DIY HRT" not advocating for self-harm? Or qualify as practicing medicine without a license? Or advocating for illicit use of controlled substances? Or contributing to the delinquency of a minor? Or any one of a thousand other crimes, violations of the rules of the website and other such problems?

See, even if we pretend they're not committing the most obvious crime they're committing, there's so, so many more

That's what I thought.

However kids now are so groomed some of them do try to talk like adult fetish versions of teens rather than just be themselves.

Could be but doesn’t have too. Unfortunately nowadays there’s more young people who feel insecure due to associating being a man/woman with stereotypes and sexualization only. Cue possible trauma, experience of sexual abuse or being clueless about the trans agenda and the real motifs of these people. Some young people even get closer to that community just because they believe not supporting them will make them akin to “evil, homophobic and transphobic old people” they want to oppose. Some parents failed their children in giving them safety and self-worth and it might lead to such places. Oh, and casual grooming and social contagions too - not always by identifying as trans, sometimes just by showing support to them...

As a qualified mental gymnast I feel entitled to answer this.

You see, the criminal justice system, medical licensing system, and all the other systems are part of the patriarchy and as part of the patriarchal oppression machine they exist only to oppress minorities but especially non-bipoc-gender-conforming-trans-women-of-color, otherwise known as nbgctwoc. If nbgctwoc cannot get life saving gender affirming care they will literally kill themselves, so it's not only a righteous act of mercy and love to help them self medicate, it's a striking blow against the patriarchal systems of oppression that will make the nbgctwoc and all the other non-white-non-male-and-adjacently-otherwise, or nwnmaao, kill themselves involuntarily by their own hands.

In fact your deliberate attempt to paint this in this light is a genocidal Nazi tactic that is not only appalling but also dangerous as since posting this it has led to the deaths of trillions of virtual nbgctwoc and nwnmaao identifying prospective people's from billions of previously and also yet to be non-existent timelines. Do better, or don't be.
