Girl Destroys Her Voice On T. This Is Progress?

Our insane country allows minors to permanently disfigure themselves with hormones

This girl is sixteen years old. Do you remember how unstable you were at sixteen? How often you changed your mind? If she ever comes to regret having taken testosterone, it's too late for her voice. She will talk like this for the rest of her life. This kind of therapy should be illegal for anyone under 21. I mean, I think it should be illegal, period, but if you want to do this as a fully grown adult, that is at least defensible. But a kid? Our laws allow a minor to permanently disfigure herself with elective use of hormones, and we have to applaud, because it's the progressive, compassionate thing to do? Insane.

Aren't people sick of the Trans-Industrial Complex yet? These people are:

This is why I think the #LGBWithoutTheT movement is paramount for saving kids from this madness!! pic.twitter.com/JyeCA6hjKt

If you are under the impression that this kind of thing can't happen to your family, you are whistling past the graveyard. I know of several conservative families who are enduring this nightmare right now.

It would be good if the collapse of the trans delusion takes the credibility of the entire LGBTQ putsch with it.

It's got a long way to go for "collapse". May I remind you that the Assistant Secretary for Health (ASH) in the Biden administration is a gelded man wearing a skirt who has condemned himself to a lifelong and very violent (and expensive) regimen of drugs and hormones in order to keep up his delusion? I believe Sullivan (Capt. Ahab alert, matey--I didn't paste that Tweet, Dreher did) is sincere is taking the line he does that he is happy to stop at the legal validation of his sexual tastes. It's very difficult to extend the same good faith to anybody else pushing these horrors. Father Martin is very careful to include ALL the other letters in LGBTQ under his pastoral care. This is all about the destruction of manhood. Think about it. If cutting off your equipment and taking hormones erases you as a man; and if wearing between your legs a piece of tissue taken from another part of your body makes you one, then manhood can't be that big a deal, can it? It's the feminists calling the shots here. Not that they're the prime movers, but they'll do.

thankfully some states have passed legislation to prevent mutilation

Postmodernism has destroyed so many lives. Its two principles have made this philosophy, a weapon of mass destruction. The first is a radical skepticism of objective knowledge. With this simple rule the postmodernists rejected Enlightenment Era thinking (aka science). The second principle is that the people in power get to decide what can be known and how. The powerful write the narratives by which society functions, they write the rules that create the moral world order. These principles defined a totalitarian worldview.

Postmodernism is a totalitarian philosophy. It should have been rejected by the colleges, but they liked the simplicity of it and whole-heartedly embraced it. They envisioned themselves at the top of this pretend hierarchy. Instead of devoting themselves to solving real world problems, they attempted to pretend them away. Trans kids are collateral damage to this philosophy. They have been encouraged to live in a delusional world, that rejects the objective one. They get cut off from the stabilizing force of tradition and interaction with older people. Their reality becomes similar to that of a cult member. Because of this, they are brainwashed and will need serious deprogramming.
(God willing, no one will break out the Kool-Aid.)

Dispute the "Enlightenment" part. If the Enlightenment has a house philosopher it's Immanuel Kant and at the heart of Kant's epistemology is what Santayana called "terrible negation". (I read the Critique in philosophy class when I was 18 and though I didn't understand all of it I understood enough to have the shit scared out of me.) After all, it was Hume who awakened Kant from his dogmatic slumber and Hume can't find any reason to believe anything exists outside our heads, call it "exist" call it "head". For 200 years these and their progeny, which includes positivists and utilitarians and pragmatists, have asked us to behave AS IF there was a real world with with real laws. That was bound to collapse, and so it has. You don't have to go to Aquinas for realism, though you could do worse. Plato and Aristotle will do. Meanwhile "science" keeps proceeding as if it didn't need metaphysical underpinning at all. They own knowledge and there rest is "subjective". After all, "science" blew up Hiroshima, didn't it? If this sounds like a nightmare, that's because it is.

I wish I knew much about philosophy. I took one intro class and was given only the basics:
Empiricism - all knowledge is gathered from sensory experience.
Rationalism - reason, rather than experience, is the foundation of knowledge.
Existentialism - existence precedes essence; the individual builds their essence through acts of the own volition. We invent the meaning of our lives. (There is no God.)

As far as I can see, when our grievance studies departments encountered French existentialism, it blew their minds. They took this open ended thought experiment of the French philosophy departments literally and combined it with their own Marxist rhetoric (power is the goal) and created Wokism. This new fascist philosophy (wokism) has been destructive of Western culture and norms. Meanwhile, our liberal arts colleges had atrophied and were not able to unravel this new twist on existentialism. Philosophy is doing us in.

When Satan and rebel angels are hurled to Hell they while away the time, according to Milton, singing or speculating:

Others apart sat on a hill retired,
In thoughts more elevate, and reasoned high
Of Providence, Foreknowledge, Will, and Fate-
Fixed fate, free will, foreknowledge absolute,
And found no end, in wandering mazes lost.
Of good and evil much they argued then,
Of happiness and final misery,
Passion and apathy, and glory and shame:
Vain wisdom all, and false philosophy!-

False philosophy indeed.
According to Matthew 7:15-20
You Will Know Them by Their Fruits
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits."

The fruits of wokism are racism, Communism, pedophilia and misogyny (trans athletes). How the colleges can continue to promote this ideology is beyond me.

In a few years I expect that we will see a spate (or should that be spayte?) of lawsuits by those regretting the irreversible changes they made as minors, against those who encouraged or abetted them while acting in a professional capacity (including schoolteachers). That should put a stop to the madness.

TikTok needs to be banned. It's a communist China psy-op to destabilize American society.
