@atrupar No, we want you to stop teaching this bullshit in schools and for punishing people for speaking the truth.

@billybinion It's not wild if you understand the world we're living in now. Just your first glimpse of this insanity. We've been branded as bigots for fighting against this stupidity in our children's schools for over a decade.

Just 32% of Americans are satisfied with K-12 education—the lowest level recorded in nearly 30 years.

I tried to answer one simple question: What to teachers actually learn at schools of education?

I FOIA’d 10 programs and spent months reviewing over 400 readings

I found glorified institutes of critical and gender theory, not serious teacher preparation work

@CharlieWalsham_ "Kindness and dignity" on this issue has achieved a level of concept inflation that is hard to find on any other issue. If you lose a child to this ideology, you find that out real quick.

“Believing that men can be women is even stupider than thinking the earth is flat. For most of human history, we actually didn’t know the shape of the earth. But even then, we still knew male & female. It’s the only thing we’ve always known.”

@billybinion If you're child, husband, or father was literally incinerated by islamic fundamentalists, can you understand why the idea of an apologist for islamic fundamentalism might exceed your level of "inclusivity?" This memorial belongs to the families of the victims first and foremost.

@bradlander You fucking moron. If you just stopped and looked at what this was doing to our daughters, right here in your own district, you would never say such an idiotic thing. You vacuous, virtue signalling twat.

#Reddit is awash with trans-identifying moderators and has been instrumental in the "gender identity" ideological capture of an entire generation that grew up on the internet. It is also full of all kinds of porn that skips normal age-verification processes. Sociologists should study the connection.

@_CryMiaRiver Mia, one thing I suggest adding to your research: Thinking in Systems, by Donella Meadows (2008). A brilliant book on systems theory, it has a chapter on how to use key leverage points to rapidly change a paradigm. To me it seems this blueprint was followed explicity by TRAs.

Then we have the rise in popularity of smartphones and the perfect super-spreading environment of social media. First it was "transition bloggers" on Tumblr, then the culture spilled out onto YouTube and TikTok. Teens are just one click away from thousands of trans influencers./5

@PaoloABelzoni @libsoftiktok @SCSU Agreed, but watch her closely. Programmed, but still has the mannerisms of a 12 yr old. Her child-tears well up and overwhelm her, the dissonance is palpable. This beautiful child lost her adolescence to Tumblr-narratives and adult Tumblrina doctrinaires. Still a human in there.

[SinclairLewis @SinclairLewis20]

@libsoftiktok @SCSU I keep coming back to this. Like many parents who lost a child to woke ideology, I see her trying to act mature yet her child tears well up and overwhelm her. Her whole adolescence was robbed from her by self-righteous authorities using her for virtue and march-fodder. So sad.

BREAKING: Major New York Hospital Settles With DoJ Over Youth Gender Clinic, Keeps It Shuttered
Substack link: https://t.co/pdcWepv9Ur
Given Mt. Sinai Health System had a large pediatric gender clinic and is in a blue state with a supportive attorney general, this settlement serves as a grim harbinger for this beleaguered field.

Mt. Sinai Health System in New York City, which until early this year operated a substantial pediatric gender clinic, has reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice in which it will keep the clinic shuttered, pay a monetary penalty, and provide treatment to those who were harmed by gender-transition interventions they received as minors.

Given Mt. Sinai operates in a Democrat-led state with an attorney general, Letitia James, who is broadly supportive of gender-transition interventions for minors, this settlement serves as an ominous harbinger for what remains of the embattled field of pediatric gender medicine as the Trump admin has sought to destroy it.

According to an analysis of medical billing records conducted by the nonprofit Do No Harm, which opposes pediatric gender medicine, Mt. Sinai’s billing for related services was in recent years the highest in the nation.

While the precise details that triggered the settlement remain opaque, the Trump administration had apparently accused Mt. Sinai that it had violated federal law by submitting fraudulent billing codes for gender-transition interventions.

Mt. Sinai has agreed to pay an undisclosed monetary penalty and to dedicate $2 million to patients who, in the words of a Justice Department release on the settlement, have suffered “harmful consequences” of the gender-transition interventions they received as minors.

“In working towards this resolution,” the release states, “the United States acknowledged that Mount Sinai took significant steps entitling it to credit for cooperation with the Department in its investigation. At all times during the investigation, Mount Sinai remained cooperative, proactive, and solution-driven, as evidenced by its multimillion-dollar commitment to detransition care.”

“The Department of Justice is committed to holding accountable medical providers that violate federal law and endanger children through so-called gender-affirming care,” Attorney General Todd Blanche @AGToddBlanche said in a statement. “This agreement puts an end to these practices at Mount Sinai and provides meaningful relief for individuals who have already suffered harm.”
