I looked it up, and it's apparently a code for involuntary psychiatric hospitalization. My question here is "When?" The presumed standard is when someone presents a high risk of harming him or herself or others. But where is that line drawn? Where is Beanie Man implying that line should be drawn?
I would guess the prevailing answer should be when someone expresses having gender dysphoria or an interest in transing.
All troons should be put in mental hospitals.
Cross-dressing used to be a well known sign of craziness, like Corporal Klinger from M.A.S.H.
Getting involuntary psyche holds above 72~hours is basically impossible. There are rules about it to make it seem like its doable, but meeting that criteria is so difficult that its not even worth trying.
You need to basically have the gun loaded and saying out loud you are going to use it before they even consider it.
Thoughtcrime isn't crime. They can have an interest in it all they'd like.
Actions done to pursue that interest should be the first even theoretical line. I'm not a murderer if I say I want to kill some jagoffs in rush hour traffic splitting lanes, and they're not a suicide risk if they just have some weird kink. But if I hook up a rocket launcher to my car, then yeah, probably look into me.
You bring up a good point. Personally, I would put the line at taking all that hormone shit. This is because stuff like gender dysphoria is a real treatable condition. It's kinda nutty, sure, but all that's needed is for that therapist to be trying to help them not have gender dysphoria anymore. Telling them it's okay to transition is just awful and I would like to see all such therapists fired if they are harming their patients like that.
A lot of these troons become crazy and terrible, but I think most of them were just confused and could have been saved. So I do pity who they once were.
