What Is the Detransition Lawsuit About?
Fox Varian, now 22, sued her former healthcare providers in 2023 after regretting the gender transition surgery performed when she identified as transgender at age 16.
It is subjects such as this, Gender confusion, when we can say, "Oh ya, this is the sort of garbage that people rejected the left in the election."
It is a blessing to have a government in power that is reigning in this type of decay.
The mystery is, how was it allowed to gain the momentum it did? Promoted from the White House.

It had been worse in Europe, but, they had the where with all to back away, which is remarkable (noted earlier in this topic)
while the U.S. was accelerating.

Power and money are fearful false gods.

And Republicans almost capitulated on this, like they did with gay marriage and letting homosexuals “adopt” children. We should be cautious of putting much faith in right wing parties, but we can be grateful when justice prevail.

The 1 most powerful “party” is comprised of career politicians/uniparty/legacy .. politicians in it for themselves, not representatives, at all. In this topic, maybe most topics, i don’t believe anyone is calling for alliance to any one party, however, that doesn’t stop others for jumping to conclusions.

i don’t care which party is involved. Sins+crimes are sins+crimes. They need to be rejected, not promoted+funded.
Esp sins+crimes targeting the most vulnerable.

i’m impressed with the European countries that have admitted failure and have taken action to back off.
That seems to be of the hardest things to accomplish. “We were wrong.”

“On today’s episode of the Candice Malcolm Show News Update,

Candice gives an update on the latest news from Tumbler Ridge, including the identities of the victims and a small bit of good news about one victim fighting for her life in a Vancouver hospital.

Candice walks us through Juno News’ latest exclusive – an interview with the shooter’s father that directly contradicts RCMP statements.

The father, Justin Van Rootselaar, told Juno News that his son’s name is Jesse Stang,
that he has never gone by the name the RCMP gave him and that even his passport says Jesse Stang.

The father is demanding the RCMP correct its false reporting,
and notes the irony of the police respecting Jesse’s preferred pronouns but not respecting his name.

Candice then goes through the handful of misleading and false claims by the RCMP in this case, including the dangerous misinformation in the Emergency Alert released during the shooting informing the public that the shooter was “female.”

It’s Fake News Friday on the Candice Malcolm Show, and Candice goes through the very many examples of
legacy media pushing a fake news narrative.

Activist journalists are more concerned about protecting trans people’s feelings than reporting the truth.

Finally, Candice looks at the 2019 CBC Kids show called “Drag Kids” –
a disturbing series that sexualizes young children and encourages them to transition.
The show aired around the same time as Jesse Strang began “transitioning.”

Enough is enough with this radical ideological activism from our so-called public broadcaster.

Please sign our petition and get this garbage off the air.“
i don’t see Juno News/Candice Malcolm often, but i find both interesting and worthwhile.
i like Candice’s approach, intelligent and credible, not exaggerated. Respectful.
i appreciate her modest dress.

- - - - - - -

i agree wrt questions about how to report “super citizen” suspects when heinous violent crimes are committed,
AND how first responders need to be UNAPOLOGETICALLY ACCURATE when responding to one another and to the public!!!

Including not using plural pronouns to describe 1 suspect (or 1 victim, 1 witness, or 1 other). Potentially dangerous.

These are serious questions that directly affect public health+safety in emergencies.
Not to mention health+safety of first responders, themselves.

Academia run amuck. :-|
The term 'amuck' refers to a state of frenzy or uncontrolled behavior.
It is often used to describe a situation where someone acts wildly or without restraint, typically in a chaotic manner.
This word can apply to both individuals and groups, highlighting a loss of self-control.
The phrase 'running amuck' suggests an outburst of energy that leads to reckless actions.

This formula does not take into account rule of law and protection for minority rights. These are all principles of our constitution.

It is not majority rule without limits.
i agree, in the U.S., maybe moreso in Canada, there is no longer anything like democracy/majority rule.
If anything, it’s morphed into minority rule, led by politically organized blocs+lobbies.

What began as good intentions has devolved into (often) mass confusion, even loss of life.
Decisions will need to be made, esp whether to just continue these follies, or backtrack to reality.

My sense is, those most shouting “democracy” don’t want anything close to majority rules. :-|

The U.S. was never a strict democracy.
i’m not convinced the founders foresaw the blocs+lobbies that have developed.
The tail wags the dog.

The currently preferred spelling is amok, by a rather large margin.

This small minority seems to be wildly disproportionately involved in mass shootings. Think Memphis.

This trend may be something to keep an eye on but statistics can also be easily manipulated in service of deeper motivations. For example people of Scandinavian descent seem to account for all school shootings in British Columbia, but I don't think that is very meaningful.
