@Lightbringer hello good sir, can you give a little context about the tweet and story I'm not a great reader and struggle to analyse. Is this a positive next step or should we be worried? Cheers mate.
It’s crazy that Matt Walsh has been able to grift himself the career as an “alpha” he has. I know these people are always massive losers, but Matt Walsh seems particularly lame, he doesn’t sound smart even to idiots, he’s pretty dorky looking and of course he’s the usual standard of vile. Why has he been championed?

Certainly a positive step.

if Trump or RD gets to the white house they will put a stop to underage children being mutilated and experimented on like frankensteins monster. The would also try to prevent big pharmacys from getting rich of cutting off childrens genitalia before these children knows that Santa Claus does not exist in real life. Hopefully it will also take less than a 20 minute phone call to get approval to have your balls removed etc.

Not any miracles promised, but a step in the right direction for sure!

I have voted left my entire life and will always do, but I side more with Walsh and Dr Jordan B Peterson regarding this topic than the left. Which clearly tells you its of control. That does not mean I like Walsh on the whole, but I can still agree with some of the points he makes.

Can you watch this video and still support whats going on? I can not.



I should add that I dont mind people identifying as non-binary or whatever they want, I have a friend who identifies as part lizard, part cat in the USA and I like her alot. As long as they are not harming anyone else or encourages children to do the same I dont have any problem with it. And I am also very open to people being gay, or men wearing panties and all that kind of stuff. I would even date a shemale! So its not about that at all.

It tells me that you lack the critical thinking skills to identify and avoid obvious propaganda.

If you can watch this video and think whats going on is OK, then it tells me you lack critical thinking skills. Feel free to convince me otherwise. And I dont like or idolize Walsh or the Dr, but I do not deny logical thinking and arguments which they make in some this matters.

I'll put your mind at ease then: None of it is going on.
Alright, I will consider taking your word that this girl and all the others are just imaginary non-existent individuals, not sure I am going to buy it though because they seem very real to me!

Given that you take people like Jordan Peterson and Matt Walsh at face value, I'm not convinced that you're mentally capable of considering much of anything.

On another note; should it really be OK to post literal fascist propaganda?

But jordan peterson said so on the internet...
So because Halftrack says this girls and others dont exist they dont? See the double standards here?

The girl does exist, whether you like it or not.

You can try to deflect from the facts and issue at hand by making fun of Peterson, but it does not exactly cover you in glory.

I dont care about Walsh or Peterson, but some of the stuff they are saying is just facts.

And again, that coming from someone who has voted left my entire life.

There's no shame in falling for some bullshit, we all do sometimes. I hope you eventually realize it.

There is a great shame in denying girls like Chloe exists, hopefully you and Halftrack eventually realize it.

I'm sorry, but is that real? I have never heard of people identifying as animals, let alone two different ones. Is this one of those people that they have cat litters for in school?

Like what? Of course there will be elements of truth in some of the things they say, that’s how they sneak their insidious agendas into the conversation.

How can it be offensive to be upset about patients thats being subjected to inhumane and dangerous procedures?

Experimental surgery on people with a catastrophic complication rate that cuts off normally functioning body parts with minors not fully aware of the consequences before going under the knife. People like the girl in the video I linked to never able to show her upper body in public again etc. being disfigured with constant infections. Thats the "monster".

Not the people undergoing the surgeries, they are the victims. I dont think thats offensive at all. I just care about the kids who need to have procedures every week to keep their experimental organs functional while many also have serious side effects and infections on a repeated basis.

There also are no long term studies on these surgeries, meaning they are very experimental, I do not want children and teenagers to be used as experimental lambs while clinics make lots of money on them.

If adults above 20 want to these things, I can accept it. But to do this to children and teenagers who are not mature enough to understand the full pictures of changing their genitalia and likely never experience an orgasm during their life is something I can not agree with.

I know I would never have able to take such decisions at like 10-16 years old.
---
So I am not against people having to go on this journey, but they have to be given enough information and be adults before making radical, permanent & life altering changes to their bodies that will make them have to rely on constant medical treatments for the rest of their lives.

Its very much real.

Walsh did interview a transgender wolf in the documentary "What is a woman", you can check out that part of the documentary here:



To clarify: I support her in identifying as a wolf, it does not hurt anyone! I am not hating on her at all, she can do whatever makes her happy!

So the short answer is no, you can't back up your mad claims.


So I see you are responding to the warning you got. Fine we can do this here as well.
It's offensive because the language you used is 'othering'. If you don't understand this as a concept then this discussion may be beyond you. To use the word 'monster' , whether post or pre op, is vile and undermines all of the fake allegience and support you profess.

Also this "mutilating little children" bullshit. I know there are instances of GRS being performed on minors (with parental consent), but it's excedingly rare. Walsh, Peterson and their ilk make it out to be the norm and pretend like that's their main issue with the "trans movement". It dishonest bullshit, designed to appeal to low-info people, gullible and/or ignorant idiots, and bigots looking for another excuse to be angry about LGBQT+ people.

@Lightbringer If you're actually trying to understand what you're talking about (because you clearly haven't the foggiest) try looking beyond literal fascist hatepreachers like Walsh and braindamaged, hateful and regressive demagogues like Peterson.

That's fair, though a consequence of that is that utter garbage human being Matt Walsh is being given a platform. It's dangerous if we suddenly find ourselves discussing Matt Walsh videos like they're legitimate sources of information. It's a bit like getting your information on Judaism from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

I agree, but you have to be careful not feed their "I've been cancelled" fetish.

And whether or not they are credible is irrelevant. They are influential and need to be argued down. The rise of the right hasn't been matched by similar zeal fro the left and so I think we the left need to engage more.

Zizek spoke about the difference in how the right v left interface with confrontation, usually it is embraced more by the right. There has never really been an activist left equivalent of 4chan etc despite the early online content being hugely left wing and dominated by the idea of online utopia.

I was astounded Peterson didn't become a universal laughing stock after that Joe Rogan drivel. He sounded like someone who needed help operating pedestrian crossings. Yet he is being quoted in this thread as an authority. So I think engagement is essential. Or it'll hush happen over yonder.

I haven’t read the Protocols but Jon Ronson has and I trust his opinion. He said that taking the time to actually read them makes it crystal clear that they’re ludicrous bollox. So, in a way, they become more influential the less they’re read. Which is why bad/dangerous ideas are better exposed than suppressed , as that’s the best way to highlight their flaws.

And yet millions of people believed them and they contributed to what would become the Holocaust. I don't know who Ron Johnson is, but I assume he's not an anti-semite or susceptible to such - and that's how he approached it.

It's the same with Matt Walsh. He is patently a dangerous ideologue who doesn't know that he's talking about... to us. But to others he might make a lot of sense. Maybe he'll focus and intensify feelings they already had or were adjacent to. That's the danger of giving someone like that a platform.

There's a cat near us in a tiny town in NI. Requested a litter box at school, school said no, rumours of the parents suing.

I know youre not doing it but these types of discussions Shouldn't even equated to transgender kids and what they are going through.

Is this for real?!? What were they asking for? A litter box in the kids toilets that their kid could piss and shit in? That’s… quite something…

Thornhill?

I'd thought that was a hoax? Some googling suggests It may be a common enough one, also seen in Cork and corrected by the school?

Edit: Scotland too, with schools confirming it as untrue.

You’re right that this is the case, the people who champion him are weirdos. It’s just that with some of the others, I can usually see one thing about them. Like Crowder is kind of well built (with a t shirt on), Shapiro talks really fast, Peterson probably seems wise to the lad who thinks going a week without masturbating is going to unlock his potential, but Walsh is so nondescript. He just has a punchable face which is par for the course with these guys. Although tbh when I was listing the right wing grifters I was struggling hard to add any more in with a trait that made them stand out, and I was scraping the barre already with talks fast and makes no *** guys feel good, so this was a lot of words to say yeah you were right.

Edit: why is the three letter word for wank filtered :lol:
