Another whistle blower!

‘Gender Theology: A regressive cult popularized in the 2010s and 2020s, which posited the body as an incidental meathousing for sacred inner ‘gender souls’. It practiced child sacrifice in the form of sterilization of gay and autistic chidlren, where substantial body modification was performed to bring the child’s physicality into congruence with the ‘gender soul’. This became a powerful and influential religion - adherence was institutionally mandated and signaled by the ritualistic performance of believers stating ‘pronouns’ upon introduction. Non-believers were shunned often and ejected from main-stream society.‘
Yes.
Keep up the good work , it is desperately needed. Fortunately IMHO, the sunlight shone on these practices may be starting to remove them from the shadows which has kept the true horror and tragedy often unknown by the larger public with no direct exposure to this behavior . That SOCIAL MEDIA STATEMENT captures perfectly my view of the current situation. Very unfortunate that there is no way of posting it in a prominent position room on every social media platform, and engaging it as topic of discussion in all chat rooms.
