@BungholioLasagn@ConceptualJames They arrive on their own as a result on their own as a result of rigorous practice. Practice reshapes your consciousness in a way that makes you readily see patterns without having to be lectured on them.
@BungholioLasagn@ConceptualJames A lot of modern mathematics education, among, is waaayyy too heavy on teachers lecturing at length and waxing philosophical while trying to get students to intuit the basic idea behind this or that. In my experience, however, the intuitions start to arrive on their own.
@RCIWilliam@ConceptualJames JFK was quite explicit about being a president who happens to be Catholic and not a "Catholic president." Quite explicit about NOT trying to do what you're suggesting.
@ConceptualJames They will find a way to turn your life into a morality tale. They will "allow" you to ruin your life in a dreadful and unattractive manner and then parade your shame in front of school-children to frighten them. This is the only useful function your species has.
@wildbez@ShirleyUJest99@sterlingkoonce Big difference between choosing it yourself, usually after years of soul searching, and having a doctor impose it on you because of his own hang-ups. In that respect (which is the most important one), this doctor is much closer to your kind than to "trans ideology.'
@obi_hai@ShirleyUJest99@sterlingkoonce Jazz, who was already an extreme case, was about 18 when she got that surgery. Hardly "prepubescent," unless you're being a weasel and trying to use puberty blockers as an excuse to say that she was.
@ReyEnAltoSBueno @ShirleyUJest99@sterlingkoonce The main difference is that they don't have a doctor or anyone else TELLING them who they are. That's what this doctor is doing and that's what the anti-trans alarmist are trying to do.
@MatthewKatzer@ShirleyUJest99@sterlingkoonce At issue is that this doctor has appointed himself the final judge on this matter. That is basically the OPPOSITE of "trans ideology," which puts that decision purely in the hands of the individual who has to live with the consequences.
@sterlingkoonce I don't know a single real-world ideology that advocates this crap. Least of all the "trans ideology." If anything, this is the opposite on steroids. He is assigning "girl" to all these babies at birth, and he's doing so violently.
@theFrostmind@Jim87504388@davematt88 We are talking about statistical patterns, not "a few bad actors." This particular study demonstrates that the more religious an offender is, the worse their offending gets.
@CarolynHof93004@DutchKafir@realMaalouf Europe has been "tolerating" football riots like these for decades. There have been much worse ones than this, going back to the 80s and before.
Anyhow, this has been an inherent (though unfortunate) part of their civilization. It's not something that was inflicted on them.
@dohlw24865851 @realMaalouf France gave French nationals shelter. Imagine that. Because that's who these people are. French nationals trashing their own capital. This is a football riot, something that has been a feature of European culture for decades.
@StaciD212953@realMaalouf This is frigging football riot. This crap has been a feature of European culture since well before immigration was a major talking point. These were French nationals trashing their own capital. With that understood, it's unclear who America would have to deport to prevent this.
@kratt71@bellausa17@realMaalouf Nazis and traditionalists have absolutely no shame and no moral compass. Lie, cheat, steal, murder, perpetrate SA, whatever . . . It's all OK. The only criterion for justification is loyalty to the cause.
@bellausa17@realMaalouf Football riots have been endemic to Europe since well before immigration was ever a talking point. If you pay attention to the footage, you'll notice plenty of white French skin in the crowd, despite all the doctoring we know went down. French nationals trashed their own capital.
@realMaalouf "Wake up" and do what? Ban football? Because that's what this is. Rioting by football fans to celebrate some victory or other.
This problem was endemic to Europe well before migration was ever a talking point.
@Jim87504388@davematt88@theFrostmind "Those sex offenders who reported regular church attendance, a belief in supernatural punishment, and religion as important in their daily lives had more known victims, younger victims, and more convictions for sex offenses"

@Jim87504388@davematt88@theFrostmind He's got plenty. Just look at your average Evangelical. It should be self-evident.
If you want formal data, though, here's one of many examples:
