Chloe Cole โญ๏ธ I've never been an ideological purist and if you followed me (you do) you'd understand that.
Similarly, listening to medical organizations, opposing discrimination on trans identities, and forbidding the government from banning care is all well within leftist practice.
Chloe Cole โญ๏ธ StandUp Chloe I get that you feel your treatment failed you and for that I am sorry. But there is NO treatment that works for everybody and sometimes, good treatments can have bad outcomes.
I had a GBS vaccine reaction years ago. I could have become an antivax activist. I did not.
Chloe Cole โญ๏ธ StandUp Youโre actually missing the point here - the medical organizations and their informed assessment of the literature provided the justification for changing the laws.
Youโre advocating for the opposite of that - ignoring the medical orgs and their assessments of the literature.
Chloe Cole โญ๏ธ StandUp Comparing gender affirming care to the opioid crisis is disingenuous at best and purposefully obtuse at worst on your part, as the reaction to the opioid crisis came after the medical organizations put forth recommendations AGIANST overprescription and doctors were ignoring.
Chloe Cole โญ๏ธ StandUp You don't get to determine what 'appropriate caution' is. Medical orgs, families, and their doctors are the best determinants. Even if the science were unclear (it's not), we still defer to the individual assessments of care teams.
Even Republicans have agreed in most states.
