  8.  @Disaletteritis  "that doesn't answer my question." Yes, it did. You asked if kids are being subjected to sex altering surgeries and the answer is: If they are in a state with transphobic laws, they might get one if they don't need it. "Was it a normalized practice?" Transphobics want to force people to live in the wrong body. Then why wouldn't they force it if they can? And you can easily check it if you search it. here's an example: Several doctors told Human Rights Watch that while they were increasingly uncomfortable advising parents to choose these surgeries, the operations are still taking place in their clinics. Parents said they still feel pressure from doctors to elect these surgeries. “The pediatricians are in a position of power. And if it’s an issue of parents being scared, that is the problem that has to get solved. It’s not really a matter of if you do surgery – that doesn’t make any sense, that’s not solving anything,” an endocrinologist and medical professor told Human Rights Watch. “When we’re trying to force people into cultural normative, hetero-normative situations, there’s a high chance that we’re going to make some major mistakes and harm people irreparably,” said a gynecologist on a team for “differences in sex development.” Parents of an 8-year-old born with atypical genitals said: “The doctors told us it was important to have the surgery right away because it would be traumatic for our child to grow up looking different. What’s more traumatic? This sort of operation or growing up a little different?” Source: Human Rights Watch -> US: Harmful Surgery on Intersex Children

  110. "That’s not possible, everyone with a body was born in the right body. " Reality: Transgender individuals (TIs) show brain-structural alterations that differ from their biological sex as well as their perceived gender. To substantiate evidence that the brain structure of TIs differs from male and female, we use a combined multivariate and univariate approach. Gray matter segments resulting from voxel-based morphometry preprocessing of N = 1753 cisgender (CG) healthy participants were used to train (N = 1402) and validate (20% holdout N = 351) a support-vector machine classifying the biological sex. As a second validation, we classified N = 1104 patients with depression. A third validation was performed using the matched CG sample of the transgender women (TW) application sample. Subsequently, the classifier was applied to N = 26 TW. Finally, we compared brain volumes of CG-men, women, and TW-pre/post treatment cross-sex hormone treatment (CHT) in a univariate analysis controlling for sexual orientation, age, and total brain volume. The application of our biological sex classifier to the transgender sample resulted in a significantly lower true positive rate (TPR-male = 56.0%). The TPR did not differ between CG-individuals with (TPR-male = 86.9%) and without depression (TPR-male = 88.5%). The univariate analysis of the transgender application-sample revealed that TW-pre/post treatment show brain-structural differences from CG-women and CG-men in the putamen and insula, as well as the whole-brain analysis. Our results support the hypothesis that brain structure in TW differs from brain structure of their biological sex (male) as well as their perceived gender (female). This finding substantiates evidence that TIs show specific brain-structural alterations leading to a different pattern of brain structure than CG-individuals.

  111. And: However, Riley’s brain didn’t develop as male during gestation and was mapped as female. We know from advances in neuroscience the past few decades that the differences between male and female brains are not insignificant – it influences everything from color perception to taste, scent, emotional reaction, empathy levels, rationality levels, pain tolerance, vocal inflection, and a host of many other factors. This is easy to see on an MRI – male and female brains respond differently to different stimuli. The largest study documenting the extent of the differences between male and female brains was done by Dr. Daniel Amen, who analyzed 26,000 people and found that the male brain has heightened activity in regions “associated with visual perception, tracking objects through space, and form recognition” and are 8% to 10% larger in mass size, while the female brain shows more overall activity, as well as increased blood flow in 112 out of 128 brain regions. Riley’s parents realized this when they discovered her at 2 years old in the shower holding clippers against her penis saying, “It doesn’t go there.” She kept insisting she was a girl. Sure enough, a lot of medical tests later, that turned out to be the case. That means that, in this case, the physiological sex mapping of the brain is different from the biological sex of the body. Riley’s brain is wired as female despite having XY chromosomes. There is no question about it. It’s a fundamental, scientific, indisputable fact. It is not a mental disorder. She is not confused. Her brain is of the same structure as the typical woman. A century ago, she would have been written off as crazy or disturbed but our understanding of the interesting outcomes of biology now let us know that it’s a very real condition based upon demonstrable facts.

  119.  @Disaletteritis  And: Transgender youth experience high rates of victimization, verbal harassment, and cyberbullying. For example, one study found that 58% of a sample of transgender adolescents reported experiencing victimization in school. We know that victimization and lack of acceptance are associated with suicidal behavior among both transgender adolescents and adults, and with suicidal ideation and suicide attempts among transgender youth. However, research has shown that even minor acts of acceptance, such as using a transgender adolescent’s chosen name and pronouns, are linked to positive outcomes, including reduced depressive symptoms, suicidal thoughts, and suicidal behavior. Other important aspects of transgender people’s mental health, such as depression, can be improved by access to gender affirmative psychotherapy or medical interventions, although research in this area is limited. One study found that when transgender adolescents were given hormone blocker medications to suppress puberty and then provided with gender confirming medical interventions in later adolescence, their body satisfaction increased and their rates of depression decreased. Future research should explore whether hormone blocker medications that suppress puberty specifically reduce risk for suicidal ideation and behavior among transgender youth, including the effects of the intervention on gender identity and adolescent development, weighing the ethical considerations inherent in providing treatment. The Endocrine Society and the World Professional Association for Transgender Health support puberty suppression, in conjunction with comprehensive mental health care, as a safe and effective treatment for transgender adolescents.

The invasion followed a series of attacks and counter-attacks between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) operating in southern Lebanon and the IDF that had caused civilian casualties on both sides of the border.[10][11][12] The military operation was launched after gunmen from the Abu Nidal Organization attempted to assassinate Shlomo Argov, Israel's ambassador to the United Kingdom. Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin blamed Abu Nidal's enemy, the PLO, for the incident,[13][14] and used the incident as a casus belli for the invasion.[15][16][i] source: Wiki-Pedia -> 1982 Lebanon War

In the period after the war, a large number of Palestinians attempted to return to their homes; between 2,700 and 5,000 Palestinians were killed by Israel during this period, the vast majority being unarmed and intending to return for economic or social reasons.[29] The expulsion of the Palestinians has since been described by some historians as ethnic cleansing.[14][15][16] ####### The UN Partition Plan of 1947 assigned 56% of Palestine to the future Jewish state, while the Palestinian majority, 66%, were to receive 44% of the territory. 80% of the land in the to-be Jewish state was already owned by Palestinians; 11% had a Jewish title.[34] Before, during and after the 1947–1949 war, hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages were depopulated and destroyed.[35][36] Geographic names throughout the country were erased and replaced with Hebrew names, sometimes derivatives of the historical Palestinian nomenclature, and sometimes new inventions.[37] Numerous non-Jewish historical sites were destroyed, not just during the wars, but in a subsequent process over a number of decades.

  220. Also: When we look at the transgender brain, we see that the brain resembles the gender that the person identifies as,” Dr. Altinay says. For example, a person who is born with a penis but ends up identifying as a female often actually has some of the structural characteristics of a “female” brain. And the brain similarities aren’t only structural. “We’re also finding some functional similarities between the transgender brain and its identified gender,” Dr. Altinay says. In studies that use MRIs to take images of the brain as people perform tasks, the brain activity of transgender people tends to look like that of the gender they identify with. “Research in these areas is extremely limited, and more research needs to be done to find conclusive results,” Dr. Altinay notes. “But we’re already seeing definite trends.” Though these differences in brain structure and function are important markers for gender determination, it isn’t always as simple as male or female. Some research shows the brains of transgender people are somewhere in between, sharing characteristics of both male and female brains, Dr. Altinay says. This is consistent with the growing understanding that gender exists on a spectrum, with people identifying not only as male or female but also as genderqueer, genderfluid or nonbinary. These terms refer to gender identities that incorporate a variety of gender characteristics. Source: clevelandclinic -> Research on the Transgender Brain: What You Should Know

  223.  @jamescooke7243  "Because its a war they didn't start." Here's the israelites planning this genocide decades before israel had been founded: Jabotinsky frequently accused Labor Zionism of hypocrisy; in his view, the creation of a Jewish state had always meant imposing the will of Zionism on the Palestinian Arabs, and the resistance of the latter to the former was but the natural and logical consequence of Zionist objectives. According to Jabotinsky, Zionist actions had been carried out against the wishes of the Arab majority. Zionist colonization, even the most restricted, must either be terminated or carried out in defiance of the will of the native population. This colonization can, therefore, continue and develop only under the protection of a force independent of the local population-an iron wall which the native population cannot break through. This is, in toto, our policy towards the Arabs. To formulate it any other way would be hypocrisy. He also pointed out that Zionists believed in an “iron wall”: in this sense, there is no meaningful difference between our “militarists” and our “vegetarians." One prefers an iron wall of Jewish bayonets, the other proposes an iron wall of British bayonets, the third proposes an agreement with Baghdad, and appears to be satisfied with Baghdad’s bayonets-a strange and somewhat risky taste-but we all applaud, day and night, the iron wall.70 Source: Expulsion of the Palestinians - The Concept of "Transfer" in Zionist Political Thought 1882-1948 by Nur Masalha

  274.  @JohnnyDelco  And: During the 1947–49 Palestine war, an estimated 700,000 Palestinians fled or were expelled, comprising around 80% of the Palestinian Arab inhabitants of what became Israel.[25][26] Almost half of this figure (approximately 250,000–300,000 Palestinians) had fled or had been expelled ahead of the Israeli Declaration of Independence in May 1948,[27] a fact which was named as a casus belli for the entry of the Arab League into the country, sparking the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.[28] Clause 10.(b) of the cablegram from the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States to the UN Secretary-General of 15 May 1948 justifying the intervention by the Arab States, the Secretary-General of the League alleged that "approximately over a quarter of a million of the Arab population have been compelled to leave their homes and emigrate to neighbouring Arab countries." In the period after the war, a large number of Palestinians attempted to return to their homes; between 2,700 and 5,000 Palestinians were killed by Israel during this period, the vast majority being unarmed and intending to return for economic or social reasons.[29] The expulsion of the Palestinians has since been described by some historians as ethnic cleansing.[14][15][16] ####### The UN Partition Plan of 1947 assigned 56% of Palestine to the future Jewish state, while the Palestinian majority, 66%, were to receive 44% of the territory. 80% of the land in the to-be Jewish state was already owned by Palestinians; 11% had a Jewish title.[34] Before, during and after the 1947–1949 war, hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages were depopulated and destroyed.[35][36] Geographic names throughout the country were erased and replaced with Hebrew names, sometimes derivatives of the historical Palestinian nomenclature, and sometimes new inventions.[37] Numerous non-Jewish historical sites were destroyed, not just during the wars, but in a subsequent process over a number of decades. For example, over 80% of Palestinian village mosques have been destroyed, and artefacts have been removed from museums and archives.[38] A variety of laws were promulgated in Israel to legalize the expropriation of Palestinian land.[39][40] ######## The first Israeli Nationality Law, passed on 14 July 1952, denationalized Palestinians, rendering the former Palestinian citizenship "devoid of substance", "not satisfactory and is inappropriate to the situation following the establishment of Israel".[45][46] Source: Wiki-Pedia -> Nakba

  278.  @JohnnyDelco  Also: In 2000, Israel started the construction of the West Bank barrier, about 80% of which on Palestinian land. The Palestinian lands were seized by numerous Military Orders. Often the Wall runs across villages dividing them in separate parts. For example, in Al Jib[18] and Beit Hanina.[19] Many are cut off from their agriculture land, like Beit Ijza.[20] Not only land for the Barrier itself, but also the land between the Wall and the Green Line (the Seam Zone) are confiscated, usually under the pretext of security: Declaration s/2/03 (2003): This declaration confiscates Palestinian lands on the Israeli side of the West Bank barrier and declares the Seam area a "Closed Zone" for Palestinians. Only Palestinians who live near the seam zone (which is part of the Occupied Territories) are allowed to enter through a single specific gate and stay, provided that they possess a personal written permit, usually for a limited period. The Declaration does not apply to Israelis.[21] Control over land transactions Military Order No. 811 and 847: allows Jews to purchase land from unwilling Palestinian sellers by using a “power of attorney.” Military Order No. 58: makes land transactions immune to review so long as the transaction was carried out by an Israeli “acting in good faith.” Military Order No. 58, Article 5: says any land transaction will not be voided even if it is proved the transaction was invalid. Military Order No. 25 (1967): Order Regarding Land Transactions (Judea and Samaria). Forbids public inspection of land transactions. Restriction of land transactions in the West Bank.[22] Source: Wiki-Pedia -> Israeli Military Order

  279.  @JohnnyDelco  And here's the evidence that this "cease fire" was planned decades before israel had been founded: Jabotinsky frequently accused Labor Zionism of hypocrisy; in his view, the creation of a Jewish state had always meant imposing the will of Zionism on the Palestinian Arabs, and the resistance of the latter to the former was but the natural and logical consequence of Zionist objectives. According to Jabotinsky, Zionist actions had been carried out against the wishes of the Arab majority. Zionist colonization, even the most restricted, must either be terminated or carried out in defiance of the will of the native population. This colonization can, therefore, continue and develop only under the protection of a force independent of the local population-an iron wall which the native population cannot break through. This is, in toto, our policy towards the Arabs. To formulate it any other way would be hypocrisy. He also pointed out that Zionists believed in an “iron wall”: in this sense, there is no meaningful difference between our “militarists” and our “vegetarians."

  293.  @josephimperatrice5552  "Adolf Hitler was secular fascism!" Reality: Mein Kampf, vol. 2, chapter I. "Whoever would dare to raise a profane hand against that highest image of God among His creatures would sin against the bountiful Creator of this marvel and would collaborate in the expulsion from Paradise." Mein Kampf, vol. 2, chapter X. "It was by the Will of God that men were made of a certain bodily shape, were given their natures and their faculties. Whoever destroys His work wages war against God's Creation and God's Will" Mein Kampf, vol. 2, chapter II. "The State should consecrate it as an institution which is called upon to produce creatures made in the likeness of the Lord and not create monsters that are a mixture of man and ape." Also in a speech on 12 April 1922: "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people." Adolf Hitler: April 26, 1933, in a speech, made during the negotiations that lead to the Nazi-Vatican-Concordant "Secular schools can never be tolerated, because such schools have no religious instruction, and a general moral insruction without a religious foundation is build on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith ... we need believing people." Adolf Hitler, Speech delivered at Stuttgart, 15 February 1933 "And now Staatspräsident Bolz says that Christianity and the Catholic faith are threatened by us. And to that charge I can answer: In the first place it is Christians and not international atheists who now stand at the head of Germany. I do not merely talk of Christianity, no, I also profess that I will never ally myself with the parties which destroy Christianity." Adolf Hitler: October 24, in a speech delivered in Berlin, 1933 "We were convinced that the people needs and requires this faith. We have therefore undertaken the fight against the atheistic movement, and that not merely with a few theoretical declarations: we have stamped it out." Even more from Mein Kampf: “I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord..” Adolf Hitler: August 26, 1934, in a speech in Koblenz “There may have been a time when even parties founded on the ecclesiastical basis were a necessity. At that time Liberalism was opposed to the Church, while Marxism was anti-religious. But that time is past. National Socialism neither opposes the Church nor is it anti-religious, but on the contrary, it stands on the ground of a real Christianity. The Church’s interests cannot fail to coincide with ours alike in our fight against the symptoms of degeneracy in the world of to-day, in our fight against the Bolshevist culture, against an atheistic movement, against criminality, and in our struggle for the consciousness of a community in our national life, for the conquest of hatred and disunion between the classes, for the conquest of civil war and unrest, of strife and discord. These are not anti-Christian, these are Christian principles.”
