Have to wonder if this was a legit case of "if it had been real we would have supported her" or if it was more a case of "not my daughter" and they just didn't want to say that. Though, with how having a trans kid is currently seen as a status symbol, much like a rare purse-pup or other exotic pet, that may not be the case.The parents, disgustingly enough, are on board with the agenda, but they're horrified that they were basically kept out of the loop, and that their kid didn't express any "gender dysphoria" (aka she was a normal kid until this groomer began to refer to her as "Leo") so it didn't apply to her.
It could just as easily be that they were simply afraid of what the mob might do to them, if they didn't couch their objections in that way.Have to wonder if this was a legit case of "if it had been real we would have supported her" or if it was more a case of "not my daughter" and they just didn't want to say that.

From what I understand, it's a paradoxical combination of "not my daughter" and "we support this".It could just as easily be that they were simply afraid of what the mob might do to them, if they didn't couch their objections in that way.
That's precisely how I always understood "not my X". "I support this, but over there" this is what the film "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" is commenting on.From what I understand, it's a paradoxical combination of "not my daughter" and "we support this".

This whole system/ideology is going to cause so many suicides. People derive purpose from work (or to be more sex inclusive, from responsibility). Even in cases where they don't give a shit about the actual labor they do, they are at least distracted from how shitty their lives are by the activity of their work."Eat the bugs, live in a pod, own nothing and be happy."

Giving people a lot of free time (a-la UBI and other UB systems per the Great Reset) will create a scenario where people are stuck in their own heads, realizing how much they hate themselves and everything around them. Then they will eat a bullet, or some other applicable deadly item.
At present this seems inevitable to me. Like, the greatest evolutionary pressure of the century will be your ability to resist depression.

Yeah honestly, probably not. I once used wood-burning stoves to cook for years and they take a lot of planning and preparation, you can't just turn them on and off like a gas or electric stove. Like, you can't light a wood stove and start cooking, it has to burn for quite a while and then die back down to cooking temperature, so you've got to plan your meals several hours in advance, and there's no "Heat to boiling, then turn down to medium" so a lot of complex recipes just won't work. Then the entire stove is also one temperature, so if cooking multiple dishes, all those dishes also need to work at the same temperature, no cooking up a high temperature boiled vegetable dish and a low-temperature milk-based dish at the same time."Eat the bugs, live in a pod, own nothing and be happy."
Why do I get the feeling wood-burning and non-mains stoves are going to be popular? Might be a good investment opportunity there, along with cat food factories.

This is ignoring how the stove is going to radiate a ton of heat into the house, so you have to plan around that depending on the local temperature and how much heating you need.
I just don't see most modern people being able to handle the high skills and learning curve a wood-burning stove requires to cook.
Sure, I just don't think they will when they have a choice, because the Powers That Be aren't taking away all non-wood stoves, they just want to take your gas stove.Humans are pretty adapatable and will learn if they are given no choice.

Their choice would be to use electric which is far easier and superior to wood fired stoves.Humans are pretty adapatable and will learn if they are given no choice.
I am getting pretty annoyed with electric stoves. It has some really weird flaws you do not get with gas.Their choice would be to use electric which is far easier and superior to wood fired stoves.
I love Me a gas stove, but if the choice is wood or electric. It's electric, without a doubt.
This has always been a problem with them. That they think they are needed and are so molded into tools that they can't imagine a world without officials and strict regulations and norms. Because in many cases it's the usual coterie and nepotism that forms, which forces the expansion of the bureaucracy to put everyone and you have to somehow justify their existence. It is no coincidence that the Catholic Church, had to introduce celibacy to somehow curb the same rampant phenomenon some degree in its own ranks. And the periods when this happened, we know from history as negative.Honestly I think the west in general has let the size of its governments get way too large and intrusive and there needs to be a dramatic cut back of buracrats in general. Because policies like these reflect psychotic control freaks looking for ever more grifting oportunities.
Gas is way, wayyyy better for fast temp changes, but I've gotten used to electric over the years. It's not terrible. I cook perfectly fine on one, but if I had a choice, I would choose gas.I am getting pretty annoyed with electric stoves. It has some really weird flaws you do not get with gas.
My brother switched to gas, and I am considering doing the same.
