He becomes the latest shock rocker to share his distaste for gender-affirming care after Dee Snider and Paul Stanley shared similar views.

      Good thing that that’s not happening. Nobody is shoving anything down anyone’s throats, nor forcing any kid to make life-changing decisions.

      (Excluding conservatives and regressives, anyway. And if there are any progressives doing it, they’re in the wrong.)

        Yeah, but it’s part of the fantasy world they inhabit, and they make voting decisions based on their fantasy world. The fantasy world where liberals cast millions of votes on behalf of dead people (which everyone knows, but no one has ever talked about), can’t spend a week in NYC without getting mugged or gang raped, walk down a sidewalk in San Francisco without stepping in human feces, and where woke parents force their 8-year-olds to have gender surgery.

        I wonder how many of these “nice but transphobic” people would revise themselves if they knew that even puberty blockers aren’t OTC, but require extensive therapy and professional counseling. I mean, it’s not a situation many people have direct experience with, so it’s easy to fall for fake stories. Of course, I also wonder how many of them don’t consider psychologists “real doctors” or psychology itself legitimate science.

        Isn’t that exactly what society has been doing for since like ever?

        Still today gender roles are forced onto people.

      “saying that he was “afraid that it’s also a fad”… the star said that he felt children were not mature enough to make major decisions about their gender identity"

      You and Cooper both are setting fire to some pretty large strawmen. Standard transphobic tactic.

      It’s a take that is based on lies and propaganda.

      This is an example of a strawman argument. He’s setting up this very specific idea of what is happening, and taking issue with it, when the vast majority of real world interactions are substantially more nuanced and specific to the kid and their family than the fake scenario put forth.

      Noooo, you can’t be mad, you need to read what he’s saying!

      A take that hardly anyone would disagree with.

      Yeah, disagreed.

      “Morons,” “idiots.” Thanks for your valuable contribution to the conversation.
