When an identity change can be made official by simply declaring it, and in doing so can suddenly put you in a whole new class of people, for which there are special social protections and laws designed to force people to respect you, then as a society we've lost our fucking minds if we think that's not going to go off the rails. In absolutely no school of governing philosophy would this ever be a good idea.

On the plus side, if this keeps going forward harder and harder, then eventually there'll be a tipping point where it becomes necessary for everyone to simply declare it once, get protected by their holy spirit of transness, and can go about their business forever (even if you say it once and take it back, that means you're non-binary forever, remember).

If this happens, then we get equillibrium. Everyone's trans, then no one is comes into account. There's the non-binary who are beyond this shit and can't be given shit anymore because they're technically more oppressed than trans people, while boys have a vagina and girls have a penis. It'd all be over.

Imagine being fined for not participating in someone's delusion.

Yes that law definitely won't be abused by people. Or my new legal name isn't Nigger Hitler.

(And yes I'm aware that Germany has laws in place that keep people from actually picking names like this)

I think the problems are going to come with shit like identity theft. Like if I can just go get my legal name changed quickly and easily as many times as I want, then what is stopping me from changing my name to someone else's and trying to steal their identity? Now with a legal ID for that as well? Sociopaths will have a field day with this.

What % of Germans find these guys sympathetic?

Officially, everyone who doesn't want to get fined.

This is beyond serious, but I can't take the people speaking in these videos seriously.

These ugly ducks are desperate to be seen as beautiful swans.

The German govt thinks everyone can become a swan.

I would like to see a longitudinal correlation study between vaccine uptake rates in a population vs. transgender rates.

The fact that the governments of the world aren't investigating any such research suggests it's intentional.

Infact, this video is evidence supporting this hypothesis, as you're not allowed to question it.

The agenda rolls forward.

The thing is, a lot of bleeding hearts will see how pathetic and awkward these guys look and feel even more sorry and protective of them because the assume these guys must feel a lot of embarrassment and shame just to live like that.

No, lol, narcissists feel no shame.

They don't appear to register shame.

The SPD seems dead set on re-enacting the 1920s in the 2020s. Considering how it turned out for them the last time, I'm not necessarily worried.
