so what are you doing about it then? any serious rebellion requires the support of a large population of the United States, and that support just isn't there. it won't be there until the majority of the populist understands that our government has been subverted. for that to happen, a blatant steel needs to happen and keep happening until people get it through their thick heads.

if you don't vote, there won't be a steal in the first place for people to notice.

or is dooming on a random 100 person internet forum all you are doing?

in all likelihood it's rigged. there's a sliver of a chance that it's not rigged, and that chanc is worth holding on to when it's free and costs you nothing.

even if it is rigged, the only way the general populace will understand that is if the steal is so blatant that it can't be ignored. more blatant than 2020. for that to happen, people need to vote and that includes you.

voting is not slavery. you can participate in the electoral process without giving up any of your rights. you can do everything that you've planned to do while still taking the one hour takes to vote.

quit being so melodramatic.

Vote anyway. if you seriously don't like either candidate, write in your preferred candidate.

yes it's rigged, yes it's fake and gay, but it is also free and enables the narrow possibility that we can in fact get out of this peacefully. it also only takes an hour of your time.

if you don't vote, nothing you say here holds water.

it's time we end this charade of foreign interference in our elections. we must prosecute and jail anyone who takes money or help from a foreign government!

my guess is because he was right about the crisis actors conspiracy theory. if the public accepts that, in the public accepts that the federal government staged mass casualty events, or was otherwise complicit in the murder of children.

but it's not "you" on the poster is it? that's the character that you played Elphaba, so how can you possibly think that this is a slight against you personally? or are you so much of a narcissist that you want people to see you personally on the poster instead of Elphaba?

you want to get watchers? be entertaining. when it comes to sports, that means being good at the sport. if you have to shame people into watching your shit, you weren't any good in the first place.

in her defense, the Republic was responsible for its own downfall for becoming so bloated, corrupt, and useless. Padme's representative Binks was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

my guess is that she actually believes she's smart, and that the word salad answers she gets are stunning and revolutionary wisdom.

it's one thing to be an idiot. it's another thing entirely to be an idiot but believe you're a genius.

this is the case for pretty much any subset of a larger population, especially when marxist theory runs rampant in the society. it's all in the name of the blacks, the native americans, the gays, the refugees, the women. if it's not the trannies, the marxists will find some other subset to rally behind for political points.

I argue that if you don't play Marxist games, you don't win Marxist prizes. if you stamp out the marxist, then everyone's rights are the same as everyone else's, and everyone's rights end where the others begin.

Indeed curing the mental issue is and always should be the first priority. For the vast majority, this will work and the patient will go on to live a healthy life.

the subset I'm talking about is the minority that cannot be cured. I cannot stress enough how tiny this population is, as they are a small subset of the already small subset of people that suffer gender dysphoria. despite how rare these people are, they do exist.

so don't give them access. that would fall under "harming others" afterall.

might as well ban video games and alcohol too. none of those have any benefit to society afterall and people who indulge in them waste their lives. Ban skateboards and motorcycles because they are so dangerous. while we're at it, might as well ban drivable cars since we have self-driving car technology. car crashes are one of the leading causes of death in the United States as after all! /s

I don't want to be in the business of dictating what people can and can't do with their bodies. everything is relative and what is egregious to some is sensible to others. So long as they don't hurt anyone else, there's no reason to ban it.

demand? with government insurance? no.

Request and pay for out of pocket? Sure why not.

I see it as those freaks who get insane piercings, facial tattoos, forked tongues, etc. none of it is actually necessary, but if they're going to do it better to have someone who knows how to get it done without killing them.

this will be unpopular here, but there is a very very small subset of people where HRT and puberty blockers (chemical castration) are necessary. these would be the people who are in actual mental distress that is so severe that they are prone to self-harm. these treatments are not a cure, but rather a cope so that they don't kill themselves or fall into (further) insanity.

unfortunately gender dysphoria has been so ridiculously overdiagnosed these people get caught up in the culture war. of all the kids diagnosed with gender dysphoria, or otherwise recommended """gender affirming""" care, I would be willing to bet less than 1% of them are actually people who need that kind of treatment, and the rest are simply victims of rapid onset gender dysphoria as a result of social pressure and grooming from school teachers. not only do these people not need these treatments, but the treatments are actively harmful to them.

I 100% think there is no reason to use these treatments on prepubescent or pubescent minors, however I do believe the case could be made for an older teenager to receive these treatments if their mental illness is that severe. this would indeed be something that is ultimately up to the parents with the recommendation of an actual responsible doctor.

It's a shame that all the responsible doctors are being pushed out of the industry.

de-escalation only works when the person you're talking to is at least somewhat receptive. immediately opening the door and swinging a knife is not being receptive, so of course de-escalation goes out the window.

...yes? finding a life partner to be a mother of your children is exactly how you breed.

breeding via whores is how you end up as described in OP.

Breeding by force is how you end up in jail.
