Those brands lose my business. There’s so many now that I can hardly buy anything anymore.

Down the rabbit hole....

The other day, looking into articles calling the Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act an anti-Trans bill (not to imply that I support the bill, as I can't condone withholding life saving medical treatment from anyone, even if caused irresponsible medical butchery), I found it disturbing that the same propaganda line was being towards teens specifically:

This article was just a reprint of a corporate propaganda shell company's article:

https://19thnews.org/2023/01/trans-health-care-bills-2023-legislative-session-lgbtq/

Which led me to question who this 19th News is...

The 19th is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.

They have a ton of recognizable massive donation foundations that typically don't list anti child protection as their causes, and corporate dynasty families pushing this effort.

I can't condone withholding life saving medical treatment from anyone

Elective cosmetic surgery and cross-sex hormones are not life-saving medical treatment. Enough with the suicide threats. Threatening suicide has long been an abuser's tactic, and there is no evidence that claim is true. The 40% statistic is flawed - by the study's authors' own words, this statistic isn't accurate. Other critics have dissected its flaws significantly further to question if there is any merit to this claim at all.

Narcissists don't often kill themselves, even when they love to threaten it. Evidence is coming out, however, that after modifying their bodies to conform to some fantasy ideal of self and still not finding self-acceptance, their suicide rates do, in fact, go up. This is something everyone without mental illness knows - self acceptance and come from accepting yourself as you are - why the therapists have forgotten that for trans when they still know that for anorexia and body dysmorphic disorder, I don't understand (I do, actually - it's that they believe trans is innate and not a religion/mental illness/fashion trend. It's also $$).

Again, these are mentally ill people who have been told to live in their delusion and that "good" people will conform to their delusion so they don't have to ever face the bad feelings of reality. No surgical intervention for mental illness has ever worked, and this one is no exception.

I'm referring to those damaged by such surgeries, being banned from being cared for and corrected by the new laws' stipulations. Continuing unethical treatments and modification is one thing, but once already damaged by them, these people may need medical treatment to stay alive or recover from the butchers.

Ah, I see that now. Thanks for clarifying.
