Trans ideology is a false religion and cannot be the subject of rational or scientific debate. Frightened parents have joined,, corrupt adults have joined because of money, fetishist and perverts have squeezed themselves under this umbrella to extort rights out of naive mostly western societies.

Children are off limits. If adults truely cannot negotiate a peaceful truce with their own bodies, they are free to live out that conflict for the rest of their days.

I appreciate your deligent research. I did the same as a surgeon forced to see these patients. Now my opinion is cut and dry. I will not be holding the knife that is complicit in adults nor children mutilating themselves

Period end of story

All the parents in the support group are well-meaning. They all want to help and protect their kids and are committed to their children's long-term welfare. The difference is that the author has self-confidence in the form of critical thinking skills. He trusts his ability to make good decisions, assuming he has access to all the available evidence. Being ostracized or labeled a problematic person doesn't concern him. His patience and objectivity towards these ideologically-impaired parents is impressive, as is his refusal to abandon his mission to learn what's true.

This article could be Exhibit A for "what group-think looks like." The author learned the hard way that his group has only one function: self-indoctrination in order to erase any shred of logic and doubt that remains regarding the affirmative model.

It's terrifying, but also an object lesson in how mob rule happens over and over again in human history. It's just that social media has taken things to a new level. Who needs dictators when we have Facebook?
