straight white people should not be allowed in the military.

Because gays and transgenders are less narcissistic than straight white men.

Tbh, I'd say that pilots spend the majority of their time with their hands off the controls in cruise anyway. It's not exactly outrageous.

except the unit crashed a refuelling tanker, killing 5, and have had bails outs, plane losses, and japanese civilian deaths. but yeah, not exactly unusual to fly high on ambien or whilst taking selfies on instagram.

They do pretty much everything else while high and preening.

Apart from that the US military are fairly undisciplined:

more heroes. recruit some compassionate gays, imo.

Trump pardoned Edward Gallagher over Pentagon objections:
- He shot a girl in a flower-print hijab who was walking with other girls.
- Stabbed a wounded teen to death as he was being treated by medics.
- Shot an unarmed man in a white robe.
- "routinely parked an armored truck on a Tigris River bridge and emptied the truck’s heavy machine gun into neighborhoods on the other side with no discernible targets."

he sounds like a psychopath who should have been rotated out of service and given proper medical help way way way before it got to where it did. he was reported by multiple navy seals in his unit ... pretty shocking handling of it by the military tbh.

plot twist: he has a doctorate in english from yale and lists his hobbies as 'opera, water polo, and leibniz'. goddamn psychopaths, man ...

So the Harry Potter lady said some bad things about transpeople or whatever. I didn't read the story or care frankly.

What I have is a basic question: Should people under the age of 18 who identify as trans be allowed to take puberty blocker medication in preparation for transitioning when older?

Not unless there's some actual evidence, eg a genetic test, that they're really transgender and not confused teens looking for attention.

If they really are then they should get the treatment before puberty.

I bet fewer than 1/100 really are, the rest are confused/attention seeking/looking for a way to punish their parents for giving birth to them.

why does it bother you so much what people want to do with their lives and identity? does it actually affect you in any way?

people over the age of 18 should be able to choose whatever treatments they want, so long as they can afford it and assume full responsibility.

has a trans or gay person ever really infringed on your rights or affected your daily experience, personally?  i can't remember when my whiteness, straightness, maleness, etc, etc were ever really offended or discriminated against by some 'non-' group.

It's kind of a meme at this point. The kind of people who (among other things) bought literally into the Republican blanket respin of the "band of deplorables" quote from Hillary believe that white maleness is the new oppressed underclass, and go out of their way to try and bring other whites under that umbrella of current events fan fiction.

Can we at least agree that people under 18 shouldn't get puberty blockers? Give them a generous amount of free compassionate mental healthcare treatment. A dedicated social worker and excellent education too. But hormone therapy is child neglect. After 18? Government fund it for all I care. But we should at least to help some other way.

Unrelated but also, let's bump the drinking and smoking age up to 30 and lower the minimum military service age to 13.

Seems pretty exhaustive in some respects already: https://endocrinenews.endocrine.org/blo … nder-youth

Though I admit I'm no expert in the medical science (just a reader), it seems to me that the psychological risk is less an issue if addressed and evaluated before it becomes a larger one.

South Dakota State Representative Fred Deutsch introduced a bill Tuesday to prosecute medical professionals who attempt to transition children struggling with gender dysphoria, the latest state-level effort to prevent physicians from performing irreversible sex-change surgeries on minors.

The “Vulnerable Child Protection Act” is not Deutsch’s first attempt to limit transgender influence on children. He sponsored a 2016 bill that sought to limit the bathrooms and locker rooms that South Dakota’s transgender students can use, which passed the state legislature, but was vetoed by then-Governor Dennis Daugaard.

In recent months, and with the high-profile custody battle in Texas over James Younger’s potential transition, several states have introduced similar bills, which are intended to punish doctors and healthcare providers who attempt to transition children. Alaska, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, and South Carolina have all seen similar efforts at the state level.

I really hope South Dokata passes this bill. Then they should immediately sign up the confused 17 and 18 year old's into military service. Infantry preferably. Definitely infantry.

Rachel Anne Dolezal is an American author, multimedia artist, former college instructor, and former NAACP chapter president. Dolezal is known for identifying and passing as a black woman while being of European ancestry and having no verifiable African ancestry.

A Miami police officer who as leader of the city’s police union defended officers involved in high-profile shootings of unarmed black men has angered the black police officers in his department with claims that he now identifies as black himself.

Why do the Social Justice Warriors get angry at these people for having a fake identity while allowing people like this the ability to claim to be whatever they want?

Pure blanket. I would hesitate before drawing too many frivolous comparisons, macbeth.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/his … k-n1119706

Miami Police Cpt. Javier Ortiz was named in the meeting as part of a complaint made by other officers that there is a disparity in treatment of black officers in the department. Ortiz was accused by Sgt. Stanley Jean-Poix of identifying himself as a black male on police exams in an effort to get a promotion.

"So the question is, why is it that every time he finishes an exam, he goes back to white Hispanic male?," Jean-Poix, who is also president of the Miami Community Police Benevolent Association, said.

Ortiz was allowed to defend himself against numerous accusations at the meeting, and insisted that he was in fact a black male because of the "one drop rule." He also denied being Hispanic, although he did admit to identifying himself as a white male in previous documents.

Okay what about the mentally ill white woman? Is she mentally ill or is black her identity that we must recognize?

Macbeth, you realize your take on trans issues is essentially the same as stupid anti-vaxxers and climate change deniers, right?

I refuse to read the first two sentences of any multi-sentence response you post until you truncate or remove that youtube link.

What about her? She's one case in a sea of personalities. She stepped down from the NAACP and was removed from the Spokane City Council. She's not even relevant anymore. Do you think there are solid parallels between her and the policeman?

I'm not sure how it's even supposed to fit in this discussion. Completely different social issues.

Forget I ever mentioned the nice police officer for a moment.

Do you think she is mentally ill and needs therapy or do you agree she is a black woman?

There are a lot of confused kids jumping on the trans-train to get attention.
Previously they would have gone goth or emo then grown out of it, tricky to grow out of major surgery.

Also the white chick on the right is hot.

I love choose your own adventures!

If yes, she is mentally ill: -> go to page 44.
If no, she is a black woman -> go to page 66.

Page 44: Then why don't you think trans people are mentally ill!!??

Page 66: Haha, you think someone is allowed to just identify as a black woman? What if I want to identify as a dolphin? You're dumb.
