Washington Erasing Parents from the Equation- AKA Affirming a Minor's Right to be Mentally Ill

Article in question

Am I the only one questioning the suitability for public office, any legislator who would think it's a good idea to interfere with a parent's role in bringing up a healthy child?

Gender Dysphoria or Gender Identity Disorder where one experiences discomfort with their biologically assigned sex. The "correct" stance of validating it as a lifestyle is completely lacking in compassion. This is especially egregious when it is used as an excuse to discontinue parental custody and rights on the premise that failure to indulge mental illness constitutes abuse or neglect.

Of course, taxpayer-funded propaganda like this would have us believe that parents oppose laws restricting the ability of minors to receive so-called "gender affirming treatment" (including permanent sex change) even as media cannot completely contain and memory-hole a 20-fold incidence of suicide among those receiving reassignment.

So-called "leaders" who support this type of issue demonstrate their abject unfitness for elected office and our collective failure to try and effect their swift removal does not speak well for us as a society. The mental illness being politically exploited should be confronted with compassion. There should be a longer view that considers where an individual might be in the future.

Having permanently injured and neutered oneself is one thing but being encouraged to act by people who should know better when one's ability to judge hasn't matured, quite another.

This is what it looks like when a society commits suicide. The generational destruction these people are ensuring is remarkable. They are encoding clear consequences of higher death, reduced reproduction, and a measurable increase in misery among the next generation. A society that does this will not survive. Either they will change direction, or they will go extinct. One or the other.

People who commit suicide before breeding lower the birth rate. Liberals want to reduce the population. Next it will be euthanasia for grandma and grandpa.
