No better way I can think of to publically announce that you are not a serious person, and thus shouldn't be taken seriously.

2019-04-22 16:15:43 UTC  

His entire argument was basically: "well I'm not an expert but we should give hormone treatment to children, because my trans friends say they wish they had. What? People regret it? Well I'm sure they exist, but in my experience that is irrelevant because my trans friends say..."

2019-04-22 16:17:08 UTC  

How about this. If you're not an expert on the matter, don't advocate for hormone treatment and life altering surgery for fucking children just because your biased friends say it should be so.

2019-04-22 16:17:44 UTC  

At this point, I'm convinced there's no such thing as an expert on this matter

2019-04-22 16:20:43 UTC  

There are certainly more and less knowledgeable people, it's just that it doesn't seem to have any bearing on their influence

2019-04-22 16:22:45 UTC  

we're still learning stuff, some of the health impacts are still coming forward
I think doctors rushed too fast to make the surgery and hormones pretty routine before anyone really had much of a grasp of it all

2019-04-22 16:23:27 UTC  

Well I don't think that in and of itself is the issue. It's not necessarily the wrong decision in all cases, nor is it the worst stopgap

2019-04-22 16:23:57 UTC  

The problem exists when the surgery and hormones become attached to an identity, and thus any alternative becomes an attack on that identity

2019-04-22 16:25:23 UTC  

and the fact they're talking now about 7 year olds getting hormones, that is fucked up beyond words

2019-04-22 16:26:45 UTC  

Oh for sure. Especially when you consider the number of conflicting theories and studies floating around at the moment

2019-04-22 16:27:09 UTC  

Not even to get into our cultural disease of overdiagnosis

2019-04-22 16:27:33 UTC  

then you've got to think, if there's a time limit for the effectiveness of the hormones, maybe that means the hormones aren't the answer

2019-04-22 17:11:39 UTC  

so he won it hmm

2019-04-22 17:11:51 UTC  

I haven't been following it much just headlines

2019-04-23 01:26:49 UTC  
2019-04-23 01:36:02 UTC  

Don't think I'm clicking that

2019-04-23 01:53:01 UTC  

Sargon on the EU campaign trail "Change my Mind" style

2019-04-23 03:56:39 UTC  

Let's make this hashtag happen
#DirtyDirtySmearMerchants

2019-04-23 04:48:57 UTC  

Yeah that was a good discussion. Outside of a few misunderstandings I think she got a good sense of where he was at and maybe she'll change her mind

2019-04-23 12:52:01 UTC  

Wow Carl’s really going for that Crowder style.

2019-04-23 12:55:38 UTC  

I wouldn't even rape you, change my mind

2019-04-23 17:24:05 UTC  

So when Democrats say Easter worshippers in regards to Sri Lanka who exactly are they referring to? Pretty sure Easter is a Pagan holiday, no matter how much Christians try to make it about Christ.

2019-04-23 17:29:23 UTC  

Pretty sure the vast majority of people who celebrate Easter are Christians. That's like saying beer is culturally associated with Iraqis because that's where it was first developed

2019-04-23 18:05:26 UTC  

the hell is a christian?

2019-04-23 19:02:55 UTC  

okay so why is the #inpeachrepublictions trending on twitter? I have read the Muller report and didnt see anything out of the norm. I'm a little confused

2019-04-23 19:24:28 UTC  

because party line

2019-04-23 19:44:49 UTC  

Oh you silly, thinking something like the text of the Mueller report is going to test their faith that Trump is a Russian puppet.

2019-04-23 19:45:38 UTC  

Diverging populism?

2019-04-23 20:41:08 UTC  

Fuck that 'east worshippers' shit; can't stand that bullshit

2019-04-23 20:41:47 UTC  

i actually dont understand it at all, what are the ramifications for saying christian?

2019-04-23 20:42:03 UTC  

like is the democratic base offended by using that term?

2019-04-23 20:47:03 UTC  

They are probably afraid muslims will be.

2019-04-23 20:47:33 UTC  

Either that, or the democrat base is made up of even more edgy teenage athiests than I realized.

2019-04-23 20:53:26 UTC  

Any collective that's been culturally "dominant" in recent human history is bad and doesn't deserve sympathy in their eyes, I guess. Whites, men, Christians, etc

2019-04-23 20:53:57 UTC  

okay

2019-04-23 20:54:22 UTC  

that just opens up a myriad of more questions but I think i grasp the concept

2019-04-23 20:54:35 UTC  

thank you fellow discord user
