They don't actually believe this because of how they treat intersex kids
Then they're all for HRT and puberty blockers and surgeries whether the child can consent or not or whether the child even wants it if theyre older. But a kid who might actually want them because of gender dysphoria? Well now hold on.
Reinforcing my belief that the majority of Americans should be put in reeducation camps.
They need to go through basic-education-camps first.
Seriously, you can't re-educate someone that's too stupid to understand basic principles of critical thinking
That quote from that person talking about how their grandfather was immune to communist agitprop because they couldn't read seems pertinent
When 61% are in favor of torturing trans children, there can only be one way for queer liberation, and it sure as fuck isn’t 
there's no fucking hope for cis people dawg
Fuck these people. I fucking despise every single one of them. They all require reeducation.
unlimited genocide on the cis, their lives are worth less than nothing
Sorry I'm an ignorant cissy. The phrasing seems dishonest.
“gender-affirming” care such as hormone therapy or surgery for transgender minors under 18.
I thought that nearly all minors are gonna get puberty blockers. Surgery for minors seems incredibly rare, no??
Being on puberty blockers for too long can be detrimental to mental health so hormone treatment is often started early, after a few years of blockers. Blockers buy time if the child is unsure.
Surgery is incredibly rare except for top surgery which generally starts at age 16.
Top surgery is still rare imo 
this study found 82 top surgeries were done on trans minors in 2019. That seems rare to me.
But very common for cis girls with rich parents. 
Hormone blockers/puberty blockers for trans teens is the compromise. They should be getting hrt and going through puberty around the same time as their peers. Forcing people to wait until they're 18 to do puberty is so cruel for no reason
Fair enough. Sorry I have so little knowledge about all this.
No worries!
It is rare for surgeries to be performed that young. My guess is alot of Americans would be relatively comfortable with HRT, but when you frame the question with surgery it's alot less popular.
Of course the repugnantcans will do a blanket ban with no regard for if it's surgery or just hormones. And dems will do jack shit about it because they secretly hate us.
A lot of minors are not getting any gender affirming care at all, it is already illegal in roughly half of the states in the US. The results of that are dire. Puberty is rough to begin with, but going through the wrong puberty while being fully aware of it must be hell on earth. These measures kill children, we have clear evidence for that, and that will most likely soon be expanded to the entire country.
needs a nsfw tag i think for transphobia
Done, sorry.
np thanks 
I take the moderate centrist position that it should only be banned for cisgender minors. 
That entire poll is really fucking bleak
Not to carry water for amerikkkans but If the poll phrased in like should doctors follow standard practices with trans youth it would prob also poll highly. Idk I'm always a little unsure about issue polling.
This^ We need to understand that the phrasing of these polls, as well as the bully pulpit narrative is weighing this HEAVILY right now. The parents rights stuff is framed in terms of 'liberty' & 'freedom'. But if presented with the reality of abuses that happen when these policies are enacted - you'd easily see 90+% approval for more progressive policies. It's all in how it's wrapped up, and the average burgerlander doesn't have the time to be bothered to understand policy and repercussions.
Make no mistake, we have a high degree of general approval and support, and we need to be visible and interacting with people for them to see that we're not a stump speech talking point.
:(
Yeah but gommunism doesn't work because Castro had homophobic views 60 years ago
