@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 I don’t know about you but any medical forms I’ve signed existed for the purpose of informed consent were put into terms everyday people will understand, as the point is to procure informed consent. For example, here’s a hormone consent form from BC: https://t.co/96IOgixRSv 2/2
@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 Understandable response, I had earlier said that my province across the board has no limit on medical consent so I suppose I had my mind on that in replying, though retrospectively I am aware your comment was not in response to that particular tweet
@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 Uh, you realize life saving treatments are included in that?? Making it so no surgery or medication can be given to anyone under 18 is genuinely nonsensical
@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 And once again, as nearly everyone with relevant credentials and their dog has said about this topic: what you’re saying is exactly why the assessment of parents, councillors and doctors comes into play.
In my province there’s no uniform medical consent age because of that
@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 You’d be surprised at how smart they are honestly, me and my friends were thinking about complex theoretical topics and shit from age 12-14 no problem. Teens function at pretty much an adult level of thinking, it’s only the PF cortex that doesn’t mature till later.
@theoneNIP @a_lanno @Shelley61265352 Anyone who didn’t understand would seek the assistance of their doctor in reading it.
Like what, are you seriously telling me that if you had to get a surgery and didn’t understand the informed consent forms that you would just get it without bothering to ask what it means?
@MichaelIron365@beccajiggens@APEX_SPORTING@SpainOnAPlate@miffythegamer Yeah except it is, it’s a phrase/term that partly came from intersex people‘s experience which is that the doctor looks at the outer sex of a baby and assigns their documented sex based on it regardless of what inner or chromosomal makeup the child has
@toleratefreedom@RoseGoldVT @angel260931 @Gemma_clark14 @mattxiv I wish yall could understand how laughable that claim is to people who actually have interacted with the trans community… like a huge portion of trans people take immense pride in being gender nonconforming but yall wouldn’t know abt that since you only talk to cis people
@theoneNIP @Shelley61265352 Who was talking about children? The op was unspecified.
Anyone with a brain has their doctor walk them through each part of it if they don’t understand
@nick_kawaza @Alkorin@RandyLahey54 I was talking about policy (neoliberal economics) not political party, but I can see how it came off like I meant the liberal party.
And sure, if you’re willing to give them I’m open to hearing examples
@nick_kawaza @Alkorin@RandyLahey54 If you looked into the specific corporate regulations in this area you’d prob. find that they are enforced.
Also idk what political motivation has to do with price gouging?
My point was just that if you want regulations then the furthest right you can be economically is liberal
@jim_rocket57 @Alkorin@re_Mishaniz Obviously oil requires refinement, but gas doesn’t exist without oil, so the quantities available will correlated to each other- and therefore the prices will be. Both factors determine the end price.
@nick_kawaza @Alkorin@RandyLahey54 Socialism advocates actual regulations on corporations mate, that’s what STOPS corporations from gouging prices, not what causes it. Unregulated capitalism is what conservative policy advocates, which is how corporations get the power to do whatever they want
@kJamesMarkk@ClarenceCurry5@Rifleman4WVU@newrepublic Woah !! I didn’t know about that! You’ve totally owned, and singlehandedly convinced me that it isn’t a slippery slope to authoritarianism to detain people for being in public, thank you for showing me the light
@Rifleman4WVU I listed off several things on top of that lmfao, but sure. There are many incredibly disingenuous things it does and that is one of them.
