The decision to halt the universal prescription of life-altering drugs is long overdue considering there was never any evidence that permanently manipulating a child’s body would remedy his or her mental struggles.

In recent years, pharmaceutical companies and bureaucracies began marketing a sterilizing chemical regime as a way to “pause” puberty for the growing number of kids who claim to struggle with gender dysphoria.

On the contrary, the increasing body of evidence shows that pumping kids full of neutering drugs causes irreversible harm, including sexual dysfunction and permanent infertility, a higher risk of cancer and cardiac events, impaired vocal cords, bone density issues, and transition regret.

Literally never watch or read Fox, lol. Stop strawmanning.

Maybe not Fox specifically, but you have the same incorrect talking points as all of right-wing echo chamber.

Also

I didn’t become trans because a drag queen read me a book or trans lady made a bud light video, that’s the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard.

I don’t think anyone ever has. Also, who’s straw-manning now?

There are people going to drag shows with guns to stop drag queens from reading books to kids. There are people giving death threats regarding a trans woman making a bud light video. It's clear the implication is that the drag queens are trying to turn kids trans, recruit or spread the gay otherwise what's the problem (for the right)? So that is not a straw man, it's evidence based.

You were strawmanning me. You have no evidence that I support those actions or beliefs, which I don’t.
