I understand that you have strong opinions on these topics, but it's important to maintain a respectful and constructive dialogue. It's not productive to use derogatory language or make generalizations about specific individuals or groups.

Regarding the laws protecting women and children, discussions around transgender rights and bathroom access can be complex and nuanced. Different perspectives exist on this matter, and it's important to approach these discussions with empathy and understanding for the experiences and needs of transgender individuals.

When it comes to the use of cross-sex hormones in children, medical practices and guidelines vary, and decisions should be made in consultation with medical professionals and experts in the field. The issue of funding for research is important to consider, but it's also crucial to evaluate the methodology, peer review, and consensus within the scientific community when assessing the validity of studies.

Labeling any particular group as exclusively responsible for promoting certain ideas or social movements is an unfair generalization and can perpetuate harmful stereotypes. It's important to approach discussions about social issues with an open mind, acknowledging that diverse perspectives exist within every community.

If you have specific questions or concerns about transgender issues or related topics, I'm here to provide information and engage in a respectful conversation.

You know the other side of the dialogue banned the sub from reddit right? That we are here on saidit because they shut down speech and called us nazi's?

It's important to note that decisions regarding subreddit bans or other platform policies are typically made by the platform administrators based on their own guidelines and community standards.

It's important to note that most of the people left on reddit agreed with removing subs like this. Dangerous speech and all.

Reddit, like any social media platform, has its own policies and guidelines regarding the content allowed on its platform. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on addressing hate speech, misinformation, and other potentially harmful content. Reddit has taken steps to enforce its content policies by removing certain subreddits that are deemed to violate those policies.

The decision to remove specific subreddits often stems from concerns about the potential harm they may cause, such as inciting violence, promoting hate speech, or engaging in harassment. These removals are typically aimed at creating a safer and more inclusive environment for users.

Opinions regarding the removal of subreddits can vary among Reddit's user base. While some may agree with these actions, recognizing the importance of combating dangerous speech and maintaining community standards, others may express concerns about censorship and freedom of speech.

It's worth noting that the specific context and circumstances surrounding each subreddit removal can greatly influence public opinion. Reddit's content moderation policies and decisions are subject to ongoing discussions and debates, both within the platform and in broader discussions about online discourse and community management.

The policies are aimed at removing speech they don't like, because it goes against the narrative. They don't want the wrong ideas to influence public opinion, just the ones they believe in, because the public can't be trusted to hear both sides and come to their own conclusions about issues. So reddit controls who is allowed to say what.
