I'm glad Elon's trying to take a stand against wokeness. But honestly to me it shows that he didn't put in the effort up front to protect his son. Sure the hospital website has a blurb that says "puberty blockers are safe and effective, and just give your child more time to decide". But if you actually read the medical literature, there has never been any evidence to show that. There is also tons of evidence for disastrous long term health effects. If he had spent a few hours doing research before signing those documents he may have been able to save his son.
I think he was faced with a "sign this paper and let him take this gene therapy or lose custody of your son forever" situation. Remember the Texas father?
This is a family court issue. I hate to say this but, unless some of you have been part of a family court trial, I think it is important for all of you to read up on how shitty family court is, how shitty CPS (Child Protection Services) are, and how they fuck over children and fathers and how they're ridiculously biased against men, even before the advent of 2nd/3rd wave feminism.
You know how we laugh at all these teenage and young adult leftists for being in fatherless homes and/or in broken ass families? Some of it is due to this woke crap, but a lot of it is due to these courts completely failing to ensure that the father remains a positive role model if he's trying to see the kids, and/or removing the mother or the father if they're either deadbeats, abusive, or drug-addled pieces of crap.
