The evils of modern “health care” again demonstrated

Courtesy of a wide variety of politicians, bureaucrats, Regressives, and just plain crazy and sociopathic people? The more we read about things like this, the more evil it seems.

The entire socio-political mania about transgenderism and transitioning people – particularly children and teens – into their supposed “mental gender” is really a very recent phenomenon. Pretty much just in the 21st Century, in fact. Yes, there had been rare cases of people attempting surgical or chemical changes in sex in a human. Just as cross-dressing has been around since Roman times and before. But always seen as a severe mental aberration and something to be more pitied than feared. Just as there have always been a few poor individuals who were born severely disabled – including hermaphrodites and cojoined twins and the like.

Only in this century has there been a major movement on the part of a broad spectrum of people: “health care professionals” (including psychologists), political Regressives, various types of activists, and increasingly a deluded public to normalize such things. Gender dysphoria has long been seen as just as much a mental problem as sociopathy, psychopathy, and pedophilia. Something that needed help, and from which people needed protection.

Not any longer, of course. So today things are done to people (humans) that would be condemned as hideously abusive when done to animals. And previously seen as (at best) cruel and unusual punishment. Drugs, chemicals, and surgery included. The same kind of “experiments” that Mengele and a whole host of Japanese “scientists” performed in the WW2 era are now hailed as “compassionate” and “progressive” and the cure for mental and physical conditions.

One small part of this is the use of “puberty blockers.” Chemicals and drugs that are designed to prevent to onset of puberty – physical maturation – in both biologically male and female humans. Specifically prescribed and carried out to deal with gender dysphoria: boys who think they really should be girls, and girls who think that they really should be boys. By delaying their maturity together with all the various sex-related physical characteristics, we have been told that will improve their “mental health” and make them happy and let them contribute to society.

Now comes a study which in part says that puberty blockers did not improve the mental health of children. Started in 2015, the study (funded by the National Institutes of Health, a FedGov agency) involved testing puberty blockers on 95 children around the age of 11 from across the country and seeing if the treatments improved their mental health. The doctor told The New York Times that two years after her trials began, her team did not find evidence that the puberty blockers improved the mental health of her young subjects. That would have been in 2017. The researcher stated she believed this result may have been because the children were mentally well at the start of the trial.

But the results of the study were suppressed by the researcher. Why? In her own words, “…the findings might fuel the kind of political attacks that have led to bans of the youth gender treatments in more than 20 states, one of which will soon be considered by the Supreme Court,…”

Is this not madness? The government denies it has anything to do with politics. Of course not.

There are many other problems with this – especially in light of studies in other countries that report the same thing. In particular, the UK National Health Service (NHS) 2020 independent review of “gender-affirming care” for children and teens concluded there was “no good evidence” for the medical push to transition children’s gender, noting it had been “built on shaky foundations.” The report also found that puberty blockers did not help youth suffering from gender dysphoria feel better about their bodies, noting that evidence on the treatments’ mental effects was insufficient.

So we have tens of thousands of mentally-impaired teens (and young children) administered what amounts to experimental drugs we would not give to a lab rat or a cow, while the information that the condition it supposedly treats is not treated!

Does this not sound familiar? “The scientific consensus” is that human gender is not defined by biology – those silly XY and XX chromosomes, but by society. Just as “the scientific consensus” is that manmade global warming is destroying the planet’s biosphere. And that COVID-19 would have wiped out most of humanity without the so-called vaccines and the lockdown. And a few dozen other things.

All courtesy of our lords and masters in government and its bedmates academia and the rest of the self-proclaimed elites.

Including the idea that human liberty is evil and must be just as suppressed as these studies and their findings.
