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.
The idea of "trans" kids completely abolishes the concept of childhood. That's a feature, not a bug.
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.
