transcoderx··on After 30 years, a father is exonerated in 'Satanic panic' case
Bullshit, 16 would be too late for hormone blockers.

The blockers are also said to prevent the kids from adapting to their biological gender, leading onto a path to surgery.

I am amazed how willing to lie people are in this forum.

No it hasn't been shown time and time again. Look into the actual studies, and not just into the ones the trans lobby presents.

The issue here is manipulation of children. If children were fed tons of harmful pain blockers, there would be a "panic", too.

There are also suicides among treated "trans kids". Don' just use the selective statistics the trans lobby throws around. Or look into the details when they cite actual studies.

No, puberty blockers are not 100% reversible and they are not harmless, either. Surgeries are not rare, either - at least it is debatable what should be considered "rare".

They did not propose mutilating surgeries to people throughout history. Also trans people existing does not mean there can't be a mass hysteria of kids being told to transition on shoddy scientific evidence.

Pity the maker of the video didn't start their own car company to smash the competition with their superior as strategic talent.

Since every state has a set of probabilities for the next state, I guess you could call it that. It would be very misleading, though.

I view his takeover positively. If I need a car in the future, I would love to make it a Tesla.

But why is it profitable for fast food shops there, but not for vegetable shops?

And even bad schools could find a minute to tell kids they should eat more veggies and less sugar?

Why doesn't anybody open a food shop there?

Tbh I am skeptic of the whole narrative. Maybe the poor simply tend to lack education, including knowledge about healthy foods.

Yeah that must be why he published the algorithm, to strengthen his grip on public opinion, and exploit the open source community to further his path to world domination.

transcoderx··on The radical moral implications of luck in human life (2020)
Someone who can't afford it can still collect money for it, or society can decide to pay. They can also try to earn more money. And more neurosurgeons bring the price down.

Your second argument is just nonsensical garbage.

transcoderx··on The radical moral implications of luck in human life (2020)
Not everybody who is born rich becomes successful in later life.

Instead of fretting how rich people have an unfair advantage, we should try to give more people that advantage.

And say it takes a rich family to create one Neurosurgeon. Shouldn't we be happy that society is able to produce some Neurosurgeons?

Another note: genetics and evolution are not random luck. People struggle to find partners with good genes.
