All the evidence we have definitivly proofs, that gender affirming care for minors is reliable, safe and effective.
If anyone tells you otherwise, they just lie. And at this point, not knowing this basic fact is just an admission of ignorance at best. Because I can google that in 5 minutes and drown in research-findings, that are easy enough to read. Also this "issue" is so present in general media, not having heard of it is practically impossible.
I just wish news-outlets would start mentioning that fact in the headlines. This is not a debate, and never has been.
Its one side having the truth, while the other side is, again, full of lies and harmfull intent.
Like every time with conservatives: The cruelty is the point. They just hate you. They want you dead.
Conservatives are reactionary. Per deffinition they oppose progression of the world.
This is pretty much informed simplicity at this point. Stop derping around with definitons who fail to encapsulate reality, you miss the point:
You fail to move on? Conservative! No matter how you slice it.
Whenever some GOP smooth-brain spews something about gay marriage being a sin, remember that this thing was illegal for some time. That thankfully changed, but their minds didnt.
They are stuck in a past that no longer should exist but they crave nonetheless:
Democrat or Republican are shorhands nowadays, but the real problem is people who cant move on, when the world did.
Conservatism is the problem. And today, all Republicans are just entirely and idealogically that, while maybe some Democrats are to a slight degree. But practically nothing in comparisson.
Dont be Conservative. Move on. Or get left behind, like their ideas they desperately cling to.
Emotional salary is the nonmonetary compensation...
...all meaningfull perks extra cash cant replicate.
We are at a point where it is almost comical.
Everything is thrown into the ring except higher wages in a desperate effort to uphold shareholder profits high and growth, while simultaniously keeping an ever more disgruntled workforce in line. People are told to cut back more and more, while you read headlines about record company profits next to ones about massive ammounts of workers being fired.
The only good thing about it is the increasing dissolution of "work and company ethics" it causes.
Workers of the World unite, the world stands still at our will!
Sure, the danger will not entirely go away, but it will be crippled severly, giving us a chance to rid ourself of more fascists (basically the entire GOP at this point). There is already a lot of infighting and people already resign from congress. Its likely the GOP will loose their majority because of that.
Trumps legal cost is draining conservative coffers and he fleced his voters on every turn.
The party lost big donors, specifically because of the ever increasing reality-disconnect Trump is forcing. He is just a to risk, investment and black hole for funds.
When it comes to it, the trumpian playbook just reads "be Donald Trump" and no one else is that.
No other know candidate comes close.
DeSantis is barely human at the best of days. Haley is a women, a negative for the sexist GOP.
They went all in now on MAGA to mobilise their party in ever dwindeling chances of getting elected again. Turns out if you are a ghoul, hate humans and let that mask slip (Roe for example), you wont get votes and loose support.
But it does mean also, that the moment he bites the dust (likely, as he is pretty old and under a lot of strain), there is no second chance for the GOP. At least in a long time.
Young voters have never been more progressive, the GOP is breaking into MAGA or no-MAGA and the republican party is running out of money fast. This is their Hail-Marry and they now it.

I read so much BS about this guy, it will greatly help my sanity if and when they finally catch him on at least SOMETHING
