@Terry >Emotional Development In an age when people break down over "microaggressions".... forgive me for doubting there's anyone left that knows what healthy emotional development for children means.
@Terry I understand why you think that way, but it's not about pedo things... for now. It's a older hippie thing, where you're supposed to respect what a child wants. Only they're using the word "consent" to make it seem like an immature child's opinion on what he should eat for dinner is actually important.
But it is indeed a problem that they're gonna twist the meaning of that word, and confuse children about actual, grownup consent.
@RehnSturm256@galena@weanoob I love that you're shitting on the Switch for being weak, when literally no one argued that it's some high performance gaming powerhouse, and this has been the status-quo at Nintendo for 3 generations now.
@nikiboo I'll be honest... I didn't expect it, but after the Canadian government deemed it acceptable to gender transition children without the parents knowledge or consent, this does seem like the logical progression.
@animeirl@matrix@rimugu From your own words: "I am against "informed consent" practices in children". I think the accusations are sufficiently grounded in reality.
@rimugu@animeirl There is no long term research on this insanity. There is no long term research on the effects of long term use of puberty blockers. The drugs themselves were only meant to be used on short term, and even in those cases we already know they can have long term negative side effects.
And we have more than enough studies on gender dysphoria in children, that show that anywhere between 50-90% of children diagnosed with gender dysphoria actually grow OUT OF IT once they pass puberty. And it shouldn't take a rocket scientists to figure out that if you put a stop to puberty, those 50-90% of children will never get cured via that natural process, and are likely to be put through extra hormone treatments that they wouldn't have needed otherwise, leading them to a life of needless extra struggle and misery.
@animeirl@rimugu Because it doesn't exist. You can't have long term research on puberty blockers because puberty blockers haven't been used on long term on children until this trend of transitioning (abusing) children has begun a few years ago.
