I have a very liberal co-worker and we get along (we never discuss politics) and she went on a rant about about trans rights and the ban on the transing of children in Texas and gave the usual screed about old white men and then she kept going on about how she couldn't believe anyone would be stupid enough to vote for Gov. Abbott. That was when I told her that I had voted for him and she was shocked and said she thought I was more progressive. I then asked her if a kid can tell you that he/she is the opposite sex and we have to take that as the gospel truth, then why can't a 10 year old tell me that he wants beer for him and his friends at his birthday party because he is mature enough to make such a decision. Heck, why have any restrictions for kids?
She told me it wasn't the same thing and walked away. I remember about 20 years ago someone told me that the end game for the lgbt activists (not the ones who truly want to be left alone of course) was pedophilia and I told him that he was being paranoid. Now, I fear that the day is common with the mainstream media will openly defend pedophilia once they can "normalize" a kid changing their sex.
That should be plain as day, but then when you mention other things they act like it is two different things. Like smoking and drinking.... why not let some 8 year olds light up a cigar because by their logic an 8 year old girl can tell me she is really a boy so if an 8 year old girl says she can handle a cigar why not let her smoke? Pure insanity!
They will eventually support those other things, too.
Quite unlikely. Like Smith, you make the mistake of assuming logic and thinking they will be driven to logical consistency.
If smoking and drinking led people to support the establishment, the media would advocate it for babies, and the left would follow. But it doesn't. So they won't.
Yes I'm extremely sure. These people scream "think of the children" when it comes to guns, but not to obesity causing fast foods, personal vehicles, cigarettes, alcohol, and other various drugs. They care so much about child safety they will advocate ban all guns everywhere, but not anything else I mentioned, and that's mostly because they like those things.
They're driven by what is uploaded into their NPC brains. That's it.
I don't think they think that far ahead. But maybe that's America and its private health insurance. Here, the governments are very tyrannical in trying to force you to do what they think is good for your health.
It makes sense: who is making the money for the politicians to waste?
I can see that this is happening, I just don't know why. You can say that "a corrupted country is easier to rule", but bear in mind that is in the far future (this is a slow process) and it has no benefits for the current rulers, nor for the activists pushing
Easier to coerce an intoxicated person into sex than the same person sober. Yeah the pedos will support at least alcohol and drugs like weed for all ages.
they don't want the 8 year olds they want to molest sound like 60 year old throat cancer patients
I think your framing is off.
The proper framing, a proper equivalency, would be "if an 8 year old girl can take mind and body-damaging drugs of her own volition, even against her parents' wishes, then why not also let her have other mind and body-damaging drugs?" (Even agnostic on the trans issues, the trans drugs do raise cancer risks, so even if you are pro-trans, it's a valid equivalency, doesn't need to be the immediate negative effects of those drugs).
That makes better sense. Thanks
