While at the same time in Canada:
Justin Trudeau dismisses parental rights as ‘far right’
“Far-right political actors are trying to outdo themselves with the types of cruelty and isolation they can inflict on these already vulnerable people,” the prime minister said last Thursday as he targeted Higgs’ new policy.
“Right now, trans kids in New Brunswick are being told they don’t have the right to be their true selves, that they need to ask permission. Well, trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians.
Yet the left can target these same youths for their politics.
One major change is that parental consent would be required for trans or nonbinary students under the age of 16 to change their names or pronouns in school. Higgs, who is facing a revolt from some of his own members about the policy, has defended it as “taking a strong position for families.”
They are still non-adults, and their parents are still their legal guardians… but NOT in the minds of people like Trudeau.
Well, trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians.
Kids are the property of the extremely toxic far-alt left. And are targeted by their policies to indoctrinate to those ideas.
In most of Canada… it is now official policy to keep parents in the dark if children come out as trans to teachers (or by the pushing by teachers). These guidelines have been brought in by stealth and without discussion with parents.
Sick, just sick.
And Higgs is “far-right” because of his support for parental rights which must therefore be a far-right policy in the eyes of Trudeau.
Why?
…once again, Trudeau, who has often denounced partisanship while urging conciliation, uses inflammatory rhetoric which will alienate a large portion of Canadians.
Conciliation ONLY to extremely toxic far-alt left policies and is a source of partisanship.
Instead of removing your eye and leg, today they will literally perform gender mutilation (on the male organs) while at the same time it is illegal to to the female genital mutilation:
Female genital mutilation (FGM), also known as female genital cutting, female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) and female circumcision, is the ritual cutting or removal of some or all of the external female genitalia.
Until the youth are of the age of the majority and are mature enough to make such life altering decisions, nothing like this should be promoted/performed.
Any person (be it a teacher or doctor or nurse, etc) who does this is IMO doing child abuse to the kid’s mind and worse body if they can strip parents of their rights over their children and their children’s health. And no government should be allowed to trample those rights either.
“Well I think it’s important to learn that there are different people.”
The more I read your posts the more I am sure you are a “journalist” for CNN or MSNBC as you display more and more verbal slights of hand. Yes, absolutely children should learn about different kinds of people. But equating that to introducing children to visceral sexual themes and constructs is an absolute false comparison. That’s like me standing in front of your house that I just set on fire and after you get upset I say, “why are you upset? humans need light and warmth”.
“And just like teachers shouldn’t force children to believe in an imaginary and invisible magic sky ghost,”
Sweet, how many extra woke points do you get for insulting God on a thread about sexual matters? Again, as I have pointed out several times now, you have trouble with people being offensive or hateful unless you are doing it, then it seems to be fine.
” teachers shouldn’t force children into having different political views or sexual orientation (which doesn’t even work).”
Well you can think it does not work or that’s not what is going on but clearly the current stats suggest otherwise. Children, are very impressionable and this is very much the case with teenagers (especially those on the autistic spectrum) as they are already struggling in that season of life. I believe this to be much more the case with girls and the stats bare that out as well at this time. I mean do you really believe all those Hollywood celebrities actually have 2-3 trans-children by chance?
“Offensive terms and slurs are words that are made to oppress or belittle others. You can not just take a scientific term and decide it is offensive. Similar to the word homo. It’s a term that doesn’t refer exclusively to homosexuals, but it means ”the same” like homonym, homogenic etc.”
Let’s be clear here. The term we are talking about actually is not “cis” (that’s a common abbreviation) but “cisgender”. That is not at all a scientific word. It was conjured in the 90’s written by a “sexologist” from Germany who also believed pedophilia was a sexual orientation in a paper about transsexuals.
“What official neutral term would you use to refer non-trans people?”
I think “non-trans people” works just fine.
Like most radical leftist words “cisgender” is inaccurate and meant only to divide and infer things while being a “dog whistle”.
We don’t call everyone not an albino person cis-albino we just refer to the small minority of albino folks with the descriptor of albino inherently knowing that without the descriptor you are simply not that.
The inaccuracy and uselessness of “cisgender” (beyond propaganda) is very much like “person of color” or “biological female”. If you say someone is a “person of color” it literally means almost nothing as they could be from anywhere in the world, of almost any race or culture. It’s intent is to mean non-white. So it is not a term of inclusion but exclusion. “biological female” is also a propaganda term as it infers there is more than 1 type of female. There is not. And at this point “LGBTQIA2S+” is also no longer a useful term. If you use this to describe someone all it tells you is “not straight”, so again it is exclusive and not inclusive as it communicates more accurately who is not in that group vs. who is.
“If one is bad they both are. ” Precisely.
And yes, conversion therapy is often presented as involuntary, because there have been cases of parents forcing their kids to undergo it. I can see an argument against forced or coerved conversion therapy. Other arguments focus on the legal issues surrounding unproven medical claims. For example it’s illegal to throw together some kind of herbal tea leaves and claim that it will cure depression, or offer yoga classes and claim it will cure cancer.
Then again, there is so much quackery out there on the market, from holistic medicine to CTM to certain vaccines that don’t prevent the thing they were designed to prevent…Conversion therapy should be absolutely legal for adults who want to try it (for whatever reason). Government’s one job is to protect people from harm. Not dictate the direction of their lives, how to feel or what to want. At most, providers of conversion therapy should perhaps be forced to offer refunds, when their therapy doesn’t work. Something that oughta go for all doctors and therapists.
