Can we talk about Nex Benedict?

- Start date
He posted in the classified section a few days ago. He didn't stop by to say hi. I guess he's done.
I'll ask again, after you abolish transgenderism, what do you want to do with these people?
Round them into camps?
We need answers.
I mean, There’s a lot of angles to this stuff
it’s not necessarily a black and white thing so to an extent I get it
But to an extent, I don’t really get it

Either that or secretly ashamed of their attraction to Trannies.
I’m sure there are many people who think they should simply go back to being who they were
Irregardless of whether or not they were happy
Kind of like the way gay people were supposed to stay in the closet until recently

That's exactly what "not indulging in their fantasies" means.
I don't think we will see ifail or grape spell that out for us.
Yes but he’s using the pronouns his neighbor is asking him to
So on an individual basis he seems ok with it
He can explain himself but I’m just interpreting what he’s said
How exactly am I fucking with them? By having an opinion that conflicts with the extremist narrative
Because I don't think it's healthy for society to indulge in false narratives and alternate realities for the sake of peoples feelings. The fact that there are people who militantly push false narratives and attack those who disagree with them is bad for society, and those who engage in those tactics deserve to be called out for the toxic, divisive actors that they are. The fact that the activist community is so unwilling to have an honest discussion shows that they don't have the ability to have one, because if they had strong arguments then they would use them.
For example, I can both acknowledge that trans people have the right to pursue activities that make them happy, and that they want to do so as the gender they identify as, while also acknowledging that there are major fairness issues for female athletes. Both of these ideas can exist and be discussed at the same time, even if they are in conflict with each other in a practical sense, except the activist community attacks anyone who attempts to have a nuanced discussion of this.
We are also told that Trans people are murdered at a disproportionate rate. Some simple back of the envelope math with readily available statistics shows that this is probably not true when compared to the non-trans murder rate, or at the very least there is not enough data to support this idea. Yet it is parroted mindlessly and used as a reason for shutting down debate.
And yes, the trans issue is especially problematic because young impressionable people are being pushed by bad actors (primarily online, but some IRL too) into medical interventions that are potentially dangerous and often irreversible, and the code of silence I mentioned above only makes it harder for troubles young people to get the information they need to make an informed decision. Even the NYT is admitting this now https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/02/opinion/transgender-children-gender-dysphoria.html
And you don't even try to formulate a coherent argument about anything
Non-binary is likely more prevalent than you expect. And the non-binary students are likely to be intelligent, hardworking, and kind.
Only an actual bully would make the decision to belittle and persecute them.

That's one of the stupidest statements you've ever posted, and we're talking about a mountain of stupid.
There are countless examples of "false narratives" in our culture and they serve a variety of healthy functions.
Your opinions are rarely if ever nuanced.
Examples? And are these false narratives whose sole function is to spare the feelings of a small minority, despite factual evidence that it is empirically wrong? The only one that comes to mind that ****arguably**** fits that criteria is religion, which has both positive and negative impacts.
Even if we can agree that the trans narrative is a “healthy” false narrative, do you still think that it’s good for society if it can’t be openly discussed without fear of retribution?
Um, okYour opinions are rarely if ever nuanced.
Feel free to point out exactly what you disagree with and I’m happy to add some nuance
