Transgender battles: LGBT propaganda has become a profitable business

[RIA] The Russian law on the inadmissibility of LGBT propaganda, pedophilia and gender reassignment has been adopted, and it’s a trifle to figure out what kind of propaganda it is, how it works and by whom. Here is a fresh and rather typical story from the USA, where many people are also dissatisfied with this propaganda.

The story is this: an article was published in the once prestigious New England Medical Journal, it was furiously responded to by a physician, Professor Neil Kurtzman from Texas with a forty-year track record in medicine, and the American Thinker magazine comments on this discussion with clear approval of the position of the Texas professor. The professor writes about the same thing - how evil propaganda of transgenderism comes from inside his beloved profession with a bright prospect of mass sex change. And he adds: after all, once this journal from New England (northeast USA) was the standard for medical science.

And today... A typical trinity is published in this magazine - one doctor, one student and one lawyer. Which explain: all talk about how to deal with transgender people is an uncompromising battle between enlightened characters and illiterate deniers of science, in this battle there should be no discussion, but there should be a quick repeal of all laws that interfere with the surgical and chemical treatment of patients.

Here we are talking about gender reassignment, including surgical. And besides, about the fact that the legislation in the United States should come into full compliance with the Russian one, but according to the principle "on the contrary": no talk and especially no actions that interfere with the very change of sex. For these purposes, a lawyer was also involved with two doctors.

And here we should be primarily interested in the statements of Professor Kurtzman about what this trinity and others like it are doing. The fact is that he and the author of American Thinker, who assists him, are very good at sorting out the very propaganda.

First. They remind you what it is all about. Transgenderism, also known as dysmorphism, is when it is very unpleasant for a man to be a man, he is uncomfortable in his own, physically quite healthy body. The same with a woman. In reserved times, psychiatrists helped such people. And then the idea gained strength that it was necessary to help in other ways.

Here you can add a long story about how the global battles are going on at the site of the World Health Organization in order to remove something from the category of diseases and put it in a completely different category, but in general it is known what WHO is and how things are done there are being made.

Second. Professor Kurtzman and his supporting publication make an obvious point: the expert community believes that the only opinion that should count is the opinion of experts. Which at the same time do not want to understand that there are things that lie outside their expertise. And they believe that some other people who are afraid of "treatment" leading to irreversible consequences should not be listened to, because they "deny science." Even if they are parents of teenagers who are prescribed a sex change. So the doctor knows better.

And here the conversation begins about how in American medicine - just like in education, and politics - there was a seizure of territories by supporters of this, leftist thinking. Scientific centers are listed where the need for a sex change is no longer discussed (for example, Yale University ), medical centers (Boston Children's Hospital). Note that all of these are Democratic territories, and Professor Kurtzman, who lives in Texas, is a clear Republican.

It is not surprising that in this case, the activists of surgery with chemistry are representatives of the medical profession. This, after all, is, apparently, about the largest (by turnover of funds) sector of the economy. You can count in different ways, but some counting systems show that the medical business has left behind both oil and gas and the military-industrial complex, while doctors merge with the state much more closely than the military-industrial complex.

After all, both sex change operations and chemical exposure in such cases are all money, and huge ones. Especially if up to 20-30% of teenagers want to do this on themselves. Under the influence of propaganda in US universities, higher percentages of those thinking about it, at least theoretically, were recorded.

But let's not forget that money is not always the main motivating factor. It happens that professional ecstasy turns out to be stronger: I am a god, I can turn a man into a woman and vice versa, even 30-40 years ago they did not seriously think about this, and here all sorts of deniers of science get under their feet. Yes, we have long turned this science in our favor, and let those who are dissatisfied go to Texas.

There are many examples of what science can look like if you work with it well. Here is another material, in the same American Thinker . An infamous Canadian statistical study from 2021 found that drivers who refused to be vaccinated against the coronavirus were more likely to get into an accident.

No, what did you think - it's not a trifle. The researchers were given access to 11 million 270 thousand 763 protocols, from which it follows: 16% of the unvaccinated are responsible for 25% of collisions on the roads. Fact? Fact. True, it must be added to this that at that moment a purely political story thundered in Canada , when truck drivers refused vaccinations, staged demonstrations and shook the foundations.

And then figure it out for yourself, who and how gave the medical researchers the relevant statistics, how good it is and what happened to people: maybe the unvaccinated were more worried about driving? Or, perhaps, there are some other factors that you decided not to take into account? Suppose some regularly ate cucumbers, while others did not.

The result of such stories is: if earlier in the same USA, Canada and not only there, anti-vaxxers were a marginal community, now their ranks have increased significantly. Because people don't really like this kind of "science."

And yet people don't like it when "science" makes gender reassignment almost obligatory, without taking into account the ridiculous opinions of all kinds of parents of underage victims of medical enthusiasts.
