Then ‘gender critical’ transphobic activist-journalists drop headlines like this after years of replacing the word “people” with “ideology”….
Nobody should be surprised that trans people are upset!
TERFs barely bother with dog-whistles anymore, when talk of trans-extermination is so blatant! 😖

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum.
This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

A recent study found that children who transitioned young retained stable gender identities over time. But the fact that nearly a fifth of those in the group did not ought to give advocates of irreversible medical interventions pause
How stable are the gender identities of younger children?

Yeah, the only reason we're hearing about this person is because they (might) be trans. The press is just bringing this up to try to tie trans people to something we had nothing to do with.
Have you *ever*, in all the thousands of shootings in America, heard a word about a friend, roommate or partner of a shooter?

The fact that both the WSJ and the Guardian have retracted their trans and leftist stories related to the shooter and now a day later a new one is being formed about a possible "trans roommate or lover" shows how desperate they are to pin this on someone who is LGBTQ+

As stated earlier by others, it does not matter what you post or do not post here. The right wing has their narrative they’re going to push, because they understand they are at war with democracy and that propaganda *works.*
Fox News' Jason Chaffetz: "I don’t think it was a coincidence that the shot rang out when you have a question about transgender mass shootings. Hopefully I am wrong. I will probably get criticized for jumping to conclusions... I don’t think that is a coincidence but we will see."

“There is no place for political violence in this country” say the politicians using legislation and rhetoric to attack trans people, immigrants, women and BIPOC daily. Just because it’s done with a pen and not a gun doesn’t mean it’s not political violence. Hypocrites. Not that they care.

See? This is a good political response to what happened (if you must). Acknowledge, but make sure you get in something about how the right is constantly fomenting violence.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:
"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

Is denying people healthcare, kidnapping people from their jobs to be sent to detention camps, targeting minorities with legislation and hate speech campaigns not political violence?

Where do our rights come from? Believe it or not, the United States has been rolling back our rights for 40 years. The biggest expansion of the peoples' rights in American history actually occurred between 1953 and 1969, during the period of American history known as the "Warren Court."

Every single thing, EVERY SINGLE THING, that RFK has done was predictable and predicted. He is doing what every other fascist eugenicist has done before him. The disability community has been warning about this for YEARS. It is not in any way shape or form mysterious and unknowable.

Subject: Chemical and Surgical Sex-Trait

This Carrier Letter serves as a second Addendum to Carrier Letter 2025-01, and supplemental guidance to Carrier Letter 2025-05. The guidance outlined below supersedes any previous Carrier Letter with conflicting information.
For Plan Year 2026, chemical and surgical modification of an individual's sex traits through medical interventions (to include "gender transition" services) will no longer be covered under the FEHB or PSHB Programs. This exclusion expands upon Carrier Letter 2025-01a and applies regardless of age.
As an exception, counseling services for possible or diagnosed gender dysphoria must still be covered. Covered counseling services must be provided by a licensed mental health provider and may include those who provide faith-based counseling.

The trans panic is maddening, because trans people are expected to defend ourselves with logic science and any sign of emotion is a failure.
And yet the anti-trans campaign is nothing but appeals to emotion unburdened by facts, precedent, or empathy.

Journalism is about objectivity, not neutrality. Neutral "journalism" is a canard.
Neutrality and objectivity are not the same. Objectivity is a slave to facts in pursuit of the truth. Neutrality is the art of presenting fact and fiction as equal.
Neutrality evelates lies. It's de facto bias.
