'Why did the right go from only opposing child transition and gender inclusive bathroom policies to opposing all transgenderism?'

The left forced the question.

Basically, most people, I think, never thought much about the mechanics of transition before. It was mostly jokes.🧵 You might have caught a sex change Before & After episode of a talk show or a 'woman trapped in man's body,' reference on a TV show.

A guy, 'getting his dick chopped off,' was a joke.

But beyond that, it was far away in San Francisco.

Then, all of a sudden, it was everywhere.

Nex Benedict was a bully.
She suffered from severe mental illness.
She was aggressive, violent.
She assaulted other teenage girls over a comment, slamming one girl into the wall.
She was fine at the hospital, and overdosed that night.

Her trans ID did not make her a victim. The LGBTQ industry has been determined to make her a martyr for their cause since the news broke of her death.

They will not stop. They'll lie, twist and exploit until it fits what they need.

This girl was troubled and needed help. She's not a prop for LGBTQ/bullying activism.

Starting to see an institutional pattern here...🤔

Let's imagine the left's narrative about Israel is true.

In 1948, a peaceful culture that lived on the land for thousands of years was brutally uprooted by white colonialist Jews who killed them, stole their land and built an oppressive occupation on top of them. Those people were then forced to live in an Apartheid state where they were denied basic human rights (no clear indication of how from 1948 to say 2005ish).

Jump to Gaza, where they are put into an open-air prison and brutally oppressed. Forced to live under Israeli rationing.

The only viable argument against Israel is that during the time between Roman control and British control, a population built a culture in the area and was forcibly displaced for the artificial creation of a European country called 'Israel.' Pretending there's no connection between the Jewish people and then Christianity and Israel is impossible.

The only way is through a religious lens that views all of this history as *their* history, ie: Islam.

Islam sees Adam as the first Muslim.

When I organized pro-Israel events in my town, the biggest champions were Christians.

Especially Evangelical Christians.

The Jewish community, almost entirely leftwing, refused to even attend the events because they didn't want to be associated with rightwing Christians. When Glenn Beck hosted his amazing Israel event a few years back, a megachurch hosted the live viewing and invited me to speak.

No one from the synagogue would go because Beck was involved.

They all financially supported Israel, but they voted Democrat.

It matters.

Awww...this sweet teacher just wanted to help students expand their minds and feel safe at school when MEAN PARENTS CALLED THE POLICE.

Or...She handed out the book This Book is Gay which has extremely graphic instruction on how to have kinky sex...
msn.com/en-us/news/us/… "The difference is that I have that love and care for all students, not just a singular student," she adds. "In regards to the book that was challenged in my classroom, it was a message to the LGBTQ+ community in my room and in my district that they're 'less than.'" She whined... twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

A good actor convinces you they are someone else. What they look like is largely irrelevant.

Historic or real stories should be accurate if they are designed to be as such, like Evan Peters playing Dahmer.

But historic fiction can be as creative as you want. The issue is the left's obsession with 'representation,' and forcing the characteristics of the actor to override the character they are playing.

'POC/FEMALE ACTOR DEFIANTLY PLAYING BELOVED CHARACTER IN GROUNDBREAKING ROLE!!'

It's the overt political attitude that's obnoxious.

'Just because he...doesn't mean he DESERVED to die!'

It's nonsense moral virtue signaling.
Completely meaningless.

It's a placeholder argument that accounts for any inconvenient facts that get in the way. It *feels* impactful, but its blather. An activist at a leftwing protest runs up and punches a rightwing person? JUSTICE! His existence made them feel unsafe!

A random citizen acts to stop a violent member of one of the left's favored groups? VIGILANTE! MURDER! LYNCHING!

It is simply nauseating.

After years of benign support, I can't ethically support gender transition as a viable medical intervention.

I think body modification should be legal for adults.

But I don't think transition is the answer to gender anxiety.

I am anti-transition.
I think its harmful. I think the answer to resolving anxiety around gender and physical sex is acceptance and therapy.

I do not support the belief system that people are somehow supernaturally mismatched or psychically gifted with knowledge of their true gender.

There's nothing wrong with them.

Shootings of children and teenagers the media completely ignored because they couldn't exploit them for their preferred narrative: abc7chicago.com/chicago-shooti…

One thing Republicans could be much better at is not giving away our position.

They boldly declare some high profile anti-whatever bill that gets demonized in the media until the Gov is intimidated into shutting it down.

We could have handled medical transition for kids better. We always get into these rhetorical wars that the left is simply better at winning.

We should have, and still can, focused on regulations and medical transparency.

Required medical institutions to show their work and tackled one piece of the process at a time.

Quietly.

The biggest lie in the Parental Rights debate is the leftwing assumption they are neutral and parents are being irrational.

Schools aren't presenting multiple viewpoints with parents opposing one.

They are instructing one ideological view and calling it 'education.' We don't have an issue with the history of slavery or the Civil Rights movement being taught.

We have an issue with the CRT version positioning itself as absolute truth that teaches kids to be racially obsessed and discriminatory that we oppose.

So how did we determine that a feeling, however intense or traumatic, of not connecting to the idea of your 'assigned' gender role meant you were very literally in the "wrong" body?

How did we determine that physically altering the body to resemble the other sex was the answer? The APA currently defines the condition as a spectrum of distress associated with the experience of *feeling* like the other sex.

They present it as a simple fact that some people *are* in the wrong body and discover this with varying levels of distress.

Devil's Advocate argument for transitioning minors.

When I pursued transition in my early 20's a huge obstacle was my physical development. I realized I wouldn't pass well.

Had I started puberty blockers, this would have been less of an issue. So many argue that 'forcing' a child to go through puberty when you know they are trans is cruel. You are forcing them to develop features that torment them and will have to be removed or altered with painful surgeries.

Why not let them be 'neutral' and then develop correctly?

In defense of parents affirming 'trans' kids:

I'm 40.
I came out in 1997.
I was the first and only in my high school.
My dad, the police, two counselors and school officials conducted an intervention at my school where I was outed to my dad.

I was removed from school. I spent the rest of high school relentlessly tormented and treated like I had plague by school admins and teachers.

Lots of people had this experience.
Lots of kids experienced horrible family consequences.

Those kids and their peers remember all this and vowed to be better.

Here is the reality:

LGBTQ activists decided what was allowed to be published discussing trans medical conditions and social issues and used their power and influence to remove books that offended them from major retailers.

They demanded social media restrict and ban offenders. They demanded their insane pronoun system be utilized in all industry under the weight of HR codes of conduct.

They used their influence to control how media talks about LGBTQ issues to ensure they are always positioned positively.

They banned words that criticized them.

No one cared about men living as women from 1960 to 2015.

It only became controversial when bald 55 year old men put on sun dresses and demanded they had a civil right to watch your 10 year old daughter pee or shower at the gym. Transwomen who fully transitioned who entered sporting events weren't noticed.

It wasn't an issue until 6'5 250lbs pound men put on wigs and demanded they had a civil right to compete against women professionally and began decimating women's sports.

Imagine there was some pathogen, some mutation, some gene, some developmental anomaly in the brain of a fetus that caused the brain to develop as the opposite sex.

Even this is in the realm of science fiction. We can't determine sexed brains this easily now.

But imagine... Why would the response be to chemically and surgically alter the body?

Wouldn't the first step be to suppress or reverse the cause?

If the development is too far gone, then why is social conditioning out of the question?

Since when did a person *have* to follow gender norms?

My goal isn't to get social conservatives like @MattWalshBlog to "like" or "approve" of me.

He isn't obligated to edit himself or change his views to accommodate me or make me feel "accepted."

He's not responsible for how liberal-thinking rightwing people see 'the movement.' Matt speaks for Matt and what he says resonates with a lot of people on the right.

I speak for myself as well.

I agree with Matt more often than not and he is fighting for things I believe in - and he and @realDailyWire are doing an amazing job. Winning real accomplishments.
