Ep. 041 - Genocide Profiteering

In episode 41, we touch on the allegedly looming arrest of former president Donald J. Trump and peel back the veil of concern-trolling anti-trans profiteering among the liberal pundit class that is aiding and abetting the right wing crusade to eradicate transgender people from public life.

they're violent, genocidal baby temper tantrums. But in all seriousness, content warnings

(00:22):

podcast, Another podcast shining light onright wing ideology and its endless fucking salvo

(00:44):
of hate, field propaganda, conspiracism, and cultish extremism, as well as
its profound destructive effects of the wholeof fucking humanity. Yeah, super light

Patreon dot com forward slash another guypod on Patreon and at another guy pod
on Twitter onto the show Holy Shit. On the same day that Donald Trump
began running ads on Facebook for thefirst time since Facebook's parent company Meta allowed
him back on the platform, Trumptook to his raging dumpster fire of a

(02:12):
social media platform that is truth socialto once again incite his army of radical
dipshits to foment unrest across the countryin a desperate attempt to deter what appears
to be the looming arrest of theformer president. On Tuesday, in an
all caps screed, the former presidentlaid out an unhinged, rambling conspiracy theory

(02:36):
as to why he's supposedly being arrested, slandering the Manhattan District Attorney's office,
and randomly name dropping boogeyman George Soros, because you know, never hurts to
add anti Semitism to the mix whenyou're trying to get conspiracists all worked up
about nothing. Trump signed off thepost, writing, in all caps,
of course, quote protest, takeour country back exclamation point. Well,

(03:01):
Trump's donors have been paying in themillions for Trump's legal battles, with this
being just one of them. Trumpseems to have likely broke campaign finance laws
when he paid for porn star Stormydaniels silence about an alleged affair that took
place in two thousand and six,just four months after the birth of Trump's

(03:22):
son Baron. Allegations from Stormy aboutthe affair surfaced in twenty eighteen, with
Stormy claiming that she had accepted onehundred and thirty thousand dollars in hush money
from former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen amonth before the twenty sixteen election out of
concern for the safety of her familybecause you know, there were threats.
A shell company linked to Cohen thenthreatened Daniels with a twenty million dollar lawsuit

(03:46):
arguing she had broken the non disclosureagreement regarding the affair. Trump had initially
denied these allegations of both the affairand the hush money payments, but then
later admitted to both during a Foxand Friends interview, claiming the payments came
from him personally and quote did notcome out of the campaign. But those

(04:08):
comments contradict a statement made earlier byCohen under oath in which he said the
President had instructed him to make thepayments, and then released audio recordings of
him and Trump discussing one of thosepayments before the election. Under US election
laws, any payments made with theaim of influencing a vote must be reported,
and these hush money payments were neverreported to the Federal Election Commission.

(04:30):
Trump's legal team reportedly urged the ManhattanDistrict Attorney's office recently not to indict the
former president over his role in payinghush money to Daniels, arguing that the
payments would have been made irrespective ofthe twenty sixteen presidential candidacy, and that
campaign funds had not been used forthe payments and were therefore not a violation
of campaign finance laws. Okay,the jury seems to believe otherwise, considering

(04:55):
the looming indictment. But this isalso an admission that there was hu money
paid. So that's fun. AndI do want to make clear I don't
give a shit that Trump fucked aporn star, just like I don't give
a shit that Clinton got his dicksucked in the old office. But what
I do care about his politicians fucking, lying and breaking campaign finance laws with

(05:16):
the express purpose clearly to mislead evangelicalvoters into thinking that Donald Trump was a
nice family man who would never havean affair with the porn star right before
the birth of his child. Butyou know, I guess the fucking grabber
by the pussy tape wasn't going todo it, so I but this probably
wouldn't have either. Evangelical Christians arefucking hypocrites. Anyway, He still broke

(05:39):
the law, so the Party ofLaw and Order doesn't seem to give a
shit about the law or order ifit's their aside breaking the law and creating
disorder. Also, I just wantto say, if Trump were to actually
find out that his arrest was imminent, it would be because prosecutors contacted his
lawyers to inform them and arrange hissurrender, not because of illegal leaks that

(06:03):
he referred to in his deranged fuckingscreed on truth. Social Trump knows this,
but he chose to claim illegal leaksbecause he knows his dumb shit sycophant
followers won't consult an actually objective lawyerwho knows how this shit works. Trump
also claimed in his batshit tirade ontruth social that America is dying, and

(06:25):
that radical left anarchists stole the twentytwenty election. God, which is it
who stole the election? Was itChina? Was it Venezuela? Was it
Hugo Chavez? Was it the Democrats? Or wasn't what the fuck? Radical
left anarchists? Nice? He alsoclaimed that January sixth defendants are being held

(06:46):
captive like animals. End quote.No, they're not not compared to other
people who are in jail. Butokay, I just want to be clear
real quickly that the jail prison,it's all fucking terrible. Anyone in there
is being treated like an animal.But listen, the January sixth defendants are
not being treated worse than other people. That's just not the case. Trump

(07:09):
also said that thugs are roaming Americanstreets and burning cities to the ground,
and that migrants are flooding into theUS, misspelling the word border. So
after painting a fictitious image of Americalike it's literal Gotham City from the Batman,
Trump seems to think that he'll bearrested because the Manhattan DA hates him.

(07:32):
It's like a vendetta or something.Right, of course, hardcore MAGA
folk aren't waiting to read the indictmentbecause all they do is react to whatever
Trump says. But you would thinkthat all these supposedly moderate conservatives who pretend
not to be Trump humping MAGA extremistswould wait to see the charges and evidence
before declaring that it's some grave injusticeor whatever. But of course they're not,

(07:56):
because none of them are serious people. One of the pun didn't class's
long standing views is that the absenceof criminal charges or consequences for any of
Trump's laundry list of obvious crimes issomehow a good thing, because magat conspiracists
will just point to any attempt tohold Trump accountable as evidence of the conspiracy
against him and further enrage his base. While true, letting him get away

(08:20):
with everything also validates his behavior,doesn't it and neutralizes some of his oppositions,
since, as the logic goes,that, if Trump was really that
bad, he would be in jailalready, wouldn't he. Well, if
we know anything about powerful people inthe United States, the answer is obvious.
But as jimmel Bowey wrote on Twitter, a quote, instead of drawing

(08:41):
people to him, arresting and chargingTrump would underscore the critique and strengthen his
opponents. End quote. I agree, instead of letting these fascist fucks drag
us around by their threats and intimidation, we need to hold them accountable,
no matter how frothy they get withtheir barking and teeth gnashing. It doesn't
matter what we do, whether wego after these people for their crimes or

(09:03):
don't. They will scream injustice andconspiracy either way, so it doesn't fucking
matter go after them. One ofthe most popular ideas on the MAGA infested
the Donald Forum on the latest iterationof the birthplace of QAnon, following Trump
calling for his flash mob of FashbrosTo protest surround mar A Lago or wherever

(09:28):
he currently is and prevent law enforcementfrom entering. Yes, some of these
people seem to think that also,I was quoting them, not telling anyone
to do this, But yes,some of these people seem to think that
forming a wall of bodies around theTrump's tacky fucking hotel in Florida is a
good idea. And I'm sure thatif this takes place in Florida that Florida

(09:52):
Governor Ron DeSantis will try to leveragewhatever happens to his advantage somehow too so
some shit will pop boff and theradical right will drum it up as if
it's the beginning of Civil War twopoint zero, because they're accelerationists who are
out for blood. But whatever thecase may be, it likely won't go
how they want it to. Sobut you know, good luck with your

(10:15):
wall of bodies. But as faras nationwide protests, the leftist is organized
as ever. It seems to meto meet these fuckers at their teeth.
We've seen this most recently with armedleftists protecting kid friendly drag shows and the
kids who attend them across the country. And as Caroline or on Twitter mentioned,

(10:35):
I too have noticed quote she says, with news of Trump's supposed and
pending arrest, I've seen limited organizedcalls for violence, very little in the
way of planning, and a lotof paranoid, conspiratorial rhetoric about this being
a false flag, a sting operation, a way to justify Antifa violence,
et cetera. She goes on,that doesn't mean there's nothing happening in private

(10:56):
message groups, and it's still afew days away. But at the moment,
the public rhetoric is more about howthis is a false flag and will
ultimately help Trump's reelection. Calls toriot are very general and nonspecific. The
main pattern I've seen, beyond conspiratorialrhetoric and outrage bait, engagement bait,
please don't share that stupid content,are calls to emulate the protests going on

(11:18):
in France at the moment. Peopleare sharing images, videos from those protests
and saying that they want this tohappen here. She says, Honestly,
I think people are kind of tiredof this, and I think at least
at the moment, Trump has lostsome of his influence over his followers.
Again, that could change rapidly,but I'm not seeing signs of this happening
right now. She also says,there's also just different energy. Trump isn't

(11:41):
president anymore. There isn't an electionon the line, There's nothing at stake
for anyone other than Trump, andI'm not sure that many people are willing
to go to jail for some guywho might get arrested for white collar crimes.
End quote. Yes, I thinkthat that's good analysis. Steven Monicelli
took to Twitter yesterday too to apparentlycrack me the fuck up with this quote.

(12:05):
There's an idea in right wing circlesthat a shadowy cabal planned the timing
of Trump's allegedly pending arrest so thatRepublicans will rally behind him instead of DeSantis,
securing victory for Democrats in the general. I call it the stop hitting
yourself strategy, he says. Evenif the theory were true, which it's
almost certainly not, the idea thatTrump's arrest would effectively force Republican voters to

(12:28):
support Trump instead of DeSantis brings tomind the old peanut butter on the wall
trick for giving dogs a bath Ayes, yes, it does. Anyway,
Fuck Donald Trump. I hope he, you know, wanders off a
cliff. But as for the stateof the Union, in a more broad
sense, Republicans in several red stateshave introduced bills to outright ban the state's

(12:50):
Democratic Party. So that's cool.Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is arbitrarily pulling liquor
licenses from establishments that host drag showsbecause you know, you can't have that,
and one of the worst things I'veever seen. HB nine nine nine
out of Florida legislation that would banquote any major or minor in public colleges

(13:15):
and universities that is based on orotherwise utilizes pedagogical methodology associated with critical theory
end quote. This would eliminate nearlyevery humanities and social science department from Florida's
public colleges and universities. Virtually everydepartment contains at least one course where elements
of critical theory are examined, andjust one course would be enough to take

(13:37):
the whole thing away. So that'spretty cool. I like how religious freedom
to conservatives just means the freedom foryour fucking shitty kids to not learn about
anything other than, you know,shit that you think is okay for them
to learn about. That's all thisshit is. But they're enshrining it in
law, which is fucking terrifying.The fucking uh indoctrination thing that they're constantly

(14:01):
fucking screaming about. What is thisthough? Isn't it exactly that it's in
doctrination? You know? One ofthe craziest things about this fucking bill is
that it's gonna ban quote courses basedon unproven theoretical or exploratory content. In

(14:22):
the quote, what do you knowhow much shit falls under that category.
Holy fuck. All this bill doesis give the state the power to just
sweepingly get rid of higher programs atcolleges and universities, just on a whim,
arbitrarily, just we don't like thatbanned. Kids can't know it anymore.

(14:46):
Wonderful, And it goes both ways, idiots. If Florida ever goes
blue, well they'll have the powerthat you gave them, dumb fucks.
But you know succinctly this bill woulddestroy academic freedom, ten year shared governance,
and university independence in the state's publichigher education system full stop. If

(15:07):
this isn't government overreach, then whatis I guess whatever I've said that before
about everything else that the right does, it doesn't. They don't actually have
a problem with the government as longas it's carrying out their bidding. So
they're not the party of less government. They're the party of more government,
just when it comes to shit thatthey want. So it's going to ban

(15:28):
entire programs on Jewish studies, genderstudies, race studies, it's going to
ban diversity and inclusion programs from universitiesand colleges in the state. And get
this, it's going to create newgeneral education requirements prioritizing quote neo classical education
focused on Western European civilization. Endquote. I just want to be perfectly

(15:54):
clear that this is straight up whitesupremacy. It's really not that difficult to
parse. It's saying it out loud, and they're trying to enshrine it into
Florida state law. Fucking crazy.Anyway, here's some other states that are
doing dumb shit. The Mississippi GOPjust passed a bill allowing the state's chief

(16:17):
justice, state attorney, and PublicSafety Commissioner, who are all white Republicans
by the way, to appoint judges, prosecutors, public defenders, and police,
rolling back democracy. Tennessee Republicans justmade it a fucking felony to dress
in drag in public spaces where poorlittle kids might see, shutting down queer
friendly bars LGBTQ plus spaces, includingpride, banning quote male and female impersonators

(16:44):
from quote providing entertainment that appeals topurient interest end quote, while making no
distinction between dragon trans because they're toostupid to know the fucking difference, and
doing so based on the absurd notionthat children's' seeing someone in drag is somehow
fucking problematic when it isn't. TexasRepublicans have been actively trying to compile a

(17:07):
fucking list, yes, a list. It's never okay to make a list
of fucking people. But Texas istrying to make a list of trans people
in the state so that they canround up trans kids and imprison their parents,
and the state has introduced six antidrag bills as of this recording,
seeking to ban drag in the state, one of which following the state's anti

(17:27):
abortion enforcement mechanism, which allows anyoneto sue drag performers if they see them.
Jesus Christ. Red states across thecountry are seizing control of local elections
so that they can arbitrarily overturn electionresults that they don't like. Republicans are
banning books that even remotely mentioned civilrights or the mere fact that queer people

(17:49):
exist, and are trying to forcetrans people to detransition against their will.
That's fucking horrible, pushing them tocommit suicide at higher rates than they already
do because of ignorant social stigma andrefusal to integrate them, while anti trans
propagandists further incite their frothy fucking followersto intimidate and commit violence against the queer

(18:10):
community and their allies. So ofall the actual shit to be worried about,
right, like all these laws tryingto eradicate trans people from existence?
Literally, do you think that transkids are transitioning too quickly? I'm just
asking questions. Don't fucking cancel me, you fucking maoists. It's just a
reasonable fucking question. Don't freak out. Oh, you're so progressive and open

(18:36):
minded, trying to infringe upon mygod given right to ask questions. So
much for the tolerant left. Goddamn, Look, who's a bigot? Now?
Don't be so intolerant of intolerant people, or you just might be intolerant
and that would be hypocritical of you, wouldn't it? Or I'm just gaslighting,
but you know, I don't wantto think about that. But back
to my totally reasonable, level headed, good faith question, are trans kids

(18:59):
transition too quickly? Let me beperfectly fucking clear from the jump. The
left wing maximalist stance of immediately transitionkids experiencing gender dysphoria is held by no
one except activists that the right hasmade up in their heads, whereas the
right wing maximalist stance of ban transitioningin all forms for trans children and adults

(19:22):
is currently being codified into law innumerous states across the US. No one
is saying, just fucking transition kids, but a lot of people on the
right are saying that we should banit outright with the law and then enforce
it with penitive action like prison.Who the fuck is a radical on this
issue? Exactly? Is it thepeople who are saying, yeah, we

(19:45):
should probably you know, affirm peopleeven children, who are saying that they're
trans, and will you know,give them all kinds of the proper medical
assessments for months and years prior toeven suggesting that we give them medical making
all these decisions jointly with the parents, the children, and their doctors.

(20:06):
Or is it the people who aresaying, fuck you, you're not that,
and no, we're not gonna getyou any help at all, so
fucking deal with it, and youknow, try not to kill yourself.
In fact, we're gonna do theopposite to help you. We're going to
convert you into a cisgender straight person. As if that's ever happened, it

(20:27):
hasn't. It doesn't work that way. I don't understand how in twenty twenty
three there are people who still thinkthat that's a choice. It's not a
choice. Why in the fuck wouldanyone choose it's not a choice? And

(20:48):
I'm so tired of having to saythis. There's not There's not one fucking
way how anyone is choosing to bethe most hated and misunderstood people in the
fucking world and risk some chud fuckhurting them, harming them, killing them,
murdering them, and have half thefucking population in the United States trying
to strip away their rights to existence. Why the fuck would anyone choose that?

(21:14):
You know, what, is achoice being a fucking bigot against these
people. That's a fucking choice.But despite the fact that there is only
one side of this that's radical andthat's the right. Despite this fact,
it appears that even the New YorkTimes another liberal media like The Atlantic,
can't stop asking the same goddamn questionas to whether trans kids are transitioning too

(21:37):
quickly. It seems more important toestablishment liberal media than the rights eliminationist agenda
of outlawing trans healthcare for both childrenand adults. Because it was never just
about the kids. We said thisfrom the fucking outset. Look what they're
doing. The Times and other liberalmedia have been pushing a more polite version
of the now standard right wing propagandathat trans people are fucking predators who don't

(22:03):
deserve health care, dignity, orreally the right to live at all,
that is, unless they comply withtraditional gender norms. In twenty twenty two,
The Times printed six six front pagestories asking different versions of the same
anti trans question. In January,they printed the story titled doctor's debate whether
trans teens need therapy before hormones.There's not a debate. Everyone agrees that

(22:26):
teens need therapy before being put onhormone replacement therapy. This story was pointless.
In May, they printed quote,few transgender children change their minds after
five years. Oh okay, thatsounds like they're getting it. Nope,
subheadline. But the study which beganin twenty thirteen may not fully reflect what's

(22:48):
happening today when many more children areidentifying as trans. Goddamn it. First
of all, there's not much differencebetween twenty thirteen and twenty twenty two in
terms of children identifying as trans therehas not been a fucking massive upswing in
those fucking few years. The Timesframed that story like there's some massive fucking

(23:10):
epidemic of trans kids when there isn't. They're pushing the right wing social contagion
conspiracy theory to soften liberals up toit. Trans kids make up less than
half a single percentage point of allthirty to forty million American children around this
age group that everyone's so fucking concernedabout. You see more trans kids at
and adults nowadays because it's become saferand more socially acceptable for them to come

(23:33):
out of the closet and express themselvesand just be the same phenomenon has occurred
with gay, lesbian, and bisexualpeople, though they too face significant hurdles,
and the Republican Party and these nightmarishreactionists are trying to roll back rights
for them too, outlawing same sexmarriage so that partners can't see each other
when they're in the hospital, andmany many other things. The background rate

(23:59):
of those who don't fit into thebinary sex and gender box has always been
more or less exactly the same.It's not a trend or some kind of
contagion scary, scary wording. It'sjust more visibility, which the right hates.
They can't stand it, and they'reactively seeking to reverse this. There's
now a well organized and concerted effortto force trans people back into the closet.

(24:23):
And this regressive hate campaign is bornentirely out of confusion and fear,
as is standard operating procedure for reactionaries, be very very afraid of shit that
you don't understand all the time,and then fucking fear monger off it and
then ride that shit right into power. In regards to the right's obsession with

(24:44):
trans kids, the overwhelming majority andby overwhelming majority I mean ninety eight percent
of trans children who transition remain steadyin their gender identity after five years,
leading happier and healthier lives in allpsychosocial aspects. And as for trans kids
who have experienced regret into adulthood,regretting their transition, well ninety eight percent

(25:07):
of children who received puberty blockers beforethe age of eighteen ended up choosing hormone
therapy as adults, remaining in theirgender identity into adulthood. In other words,
the number of trans people who regrettheir decision to transition is less than
two percent, and that two percentregret rate is very likely due to negative
social attitudes and refusal to integrate andaccept them into society. A new study

(25:32):
in the Journal of Plastic and ReconstructiveSurgery shows incredibly high satisfaction rates with those
who transition. Of the nearly twothousand people in the study who received gender
affirming surgery, only six patients,or zero point three percent, regretted it
and wanted to transition. It's worthpointing out that the study on satisfaction rates

(25:56):
is also the first formal pathway puttogether and published to help guide and support
people with regret, because we're notdismissing those people. Those who experience regret
also deserve proper care. As everyonedoes. More and more science is being
conducted in this space to provide thebest possible care, despite right wing propagandists

(26:18):
claiming otherwise and trying to ban theability to even conduct more research. If
you ban this altogether, how thefuck are we going to collect more data.
Everyone in this space supports wherever anyone'spersonal path goes. No one is
encouraging anyone to take one path oranother, except for conservatives, anti trans

(26:38):
folks who are trying to force asquare block into a round fucking hole.
Lying grifters are exploiting d transitioners forfame and money at the expense of trans
lives, and it's completely fucked.The right is trying to implement new restrictions
on the ability of trans people toexist in the world that aren't about cultural

(27:02):
norms but about creating a subclass ofcitizen. And it's not just trans people,
it's a whole host of humans whothey're aiming to subjugate and marginalize out
of existence. This goes beyond transpeople. If pundits like Jonathan Chait,
Jesse Single, and others don't quicklyrealize and vocalize this, they're going to

(27:22):
hand over the lives of trans peopleand many others into the hands of these
genocidal, fucking fascists. These quoteunquote journalists are actively harming people with horrifyingly
bad reporting, and when they're reporting, if we can even call it that
is critiqued and corrected, the Chaitsand Singles of the Internet frame them as
abusers and proponents of censorship, whichis particularly funny coming from Jesse Single,

(27:48):
who regularly see lions and six's followerson critics not to mention that Single announced
he'd be taking a break from Twitterand deactivated his Twitter account after realizing that
he based an entire concern controlling peacearound a well known joke about trans people
identifying as attack helicopters and burning hissources with his spectacularly bad reporting. After

(28:11):
naming the people who illegally gave himhundreds of patient names, birth dates,
and other personal health information, onMarch sixth, Jesse tweeted, quote,
I have some dumb questions for agenuine HIPPA expert, if anyone knows one
or is one, and wouldn't mindshooting me an email end quote. HIPPA

(28:32):
is the Health Insurance Portability and AccountabilityAct of nineteen ninety six, and it's
a federal law that requires the creationof national standards to protect sensitive patient health
information from being disclosed without a patient'sconsent or knowledge. And Jesse on the
sixth was asking for more information aboutthat law. Either no one sent him

(28:55):
an email or he got bad information, and I'm gonna go ahead and assume
the latter, given his audience ismostly full of complete dipshits, But I
do owe Jesse an apology for sayingthat he's not a real journalist after everything,
he helped bring the light about JamieReid and her likely criminal malfeasance.
Thank you, Jesse, you fuckingidiot. Quickly to give some context,

(29:19):
last month, a quote unquote whistleblowernow known thanks to Jesse as Jamie Reid,
came forward with allegations that a SaintLouis gender clinic was rushing kids through
transition without assessment. Her account includeda number of implausible claims. She misrepresented
the side effects of medications and saidchildren quote unquote routinely transitioned without parental consent.

(29:44):
She also said a child identifying asa helicopter was put on hormones.
As has been pointed out, Iidentify as an attack helicopter is an infamous
right wing meme making fun of transpeople. Oh you identify as a woman,
Well, I identify as a shoe. Yeah, that's the joke.
It's the one joke that the righthas, and it says more about them

(30:07):
than it does about trans people.But despite years of concern trolling media,
there is no evidence that large numbersof children are transitioning without assessment. There
isn't a single confirmed case of this. In fact, nonetheless, numerous national
pundits amplified her account. Jonathan Chaitsaid similar allegations have been proven in the

(30:29):
UK. This is not true.Jesse Single said it was implausible that someone
would lie in a sworn affidavit,which is just fucking stupid. Oh god
damn, that happens often. Afew weeks later, local outlets reported that
they had spoken to more than twentyparents of kids treated at this gender clinic

(30:49):
in Saint Louis. None of themreported rushed assessments. In all that time,
zero of the parents have come forwardto confirm the whistle blower's claims.
Rather than wait for more information tocome out, though, these fucking pundits
bizarrely just doubled down. Jesse Singlewrote a post attempting to discredit the local

(31:11):
reporting, saying that one of theparents ties to a pro transactivist organization weren't
disclosed. Oh no, a genderaffirming parent trying to help her fucking kid.
How biased. Single then doubled downon the helicopter claim, contacting the
supposed whistleblower for more information. Itturns out that the patient didn't come to
the center identifying as a helicopter.That phrase appeared in a referral letter from

(31:37):
an outside therapist, and the whistleblowerknew this because she and another staffer were
keeping a red flag list of patientsthey believed wrongly received transition care. Her
bosses at the clinic learned about thelist last year and told her to delete
it. She refused. Eventually,she quit, but kept the fucking list

(31:57):
As she shopped her store around themedia and to politicians. She shared a
redacted version of this list, andwhen Single published her account on Friday,
people quickly pointed out that accessing,retaining, and sharing this information may constitute
a hip of violation. Yes,fucking put fucking the most vulnerable group of

(32:21):
people in the world, perhaps indanger. Nice, thank you, Yeah,
give a fucking list of trans kidsto Jesse Single. The fuck is
wrong with you? So, asMichael Hobbs Astutey points out, quote,
the whistleblower claimed that the kids wereput on hormones without any professionals assessing whether

(32:42):
they were really trans or just mentallyill. When pressed for details, however,
it turns out that the patient wasone assessed by a therapist and referred
for hormones, two assessed again byan endochronologist, and three monitored by a
nurse practitioner who pressed concern about theirmental health. Hobbs goes on quote,

(33:04):
it seems clear, at least tome, this child did not genuinely believe
that they were a helicopter. Thisepisode is far more revealing of a quote
unquote whistleblower willing to exaggerate and leaveout key details than a clinic fire hosing
hormones at children regardless of their condition. It's also revealing of journalists so desperate

(33:27):
to believe that children are transitioning withoutassessment that they'll overlook unethical and possibly illegal
behavior, as well as evidence thatrefutes their core claim end quote. And
as go like hell Machine wrote onTwitter, quote pretty wild that Jesse single
has evolved the one joke, thehelicopter joke, into having one column that

(33:52):
he just rewrites twice a week andthen spends fourteen fuckingn hours a day twittering
about and then asks, at whatpoint do you acknowledged that this is deranged
obsession? End quote. Yeah,very good question, and it's the same
question that I have of some peoplein my own fucking dms constantly who won't

(34:12):
shut the fuck up about this shit. They're obsessed and it's weird as fuck.
God, you honestly got to handit to that kid though, right
like who said that they identified asan attack helicopter as a joke to a
therapist that was then leaked to Single, taken seriously and brought about a possible
hippo violation against Singles burned source achild has likely single handedly destroyed Jesse's career.

(34:39):
That's pretty fucking cool, dude,Go kids. But to be clear,
no one's condoning harassment or abuse ofanyone, including journalists, including Jesse,
Jonathan, all these fucking people.I have seen some seriously questionable shit

(34:59):
directed at the these people. It'snot funny. A lot of it's fucked
up and unacceptable. It's not condemned, condemned, consider it condemned. We
are simply asking these supposed truths,seeking just asking questions. People like Chait
and Single to consider that their irresponsiblereporting is being used to further harm,

(35:21):
subjugate, and marginalize a vulnerable groupof people. So you can understand why
some people are outraged by this irresponsibly, fucking, horrendously bad reporting. So
just don't be so fucking surprised,don't take it personally. Just correct your
fucking mistakes, you complete fucking idiots. As Hobbes has also correctly noted,

(35:44):
quote, the wildest thing is thatall of these quote unquote reasonable concerns are
based on nothing. Five years ofPanicked articles haven't produced a single confirmed case
of a kid being rushed into genderaffirming surgery. You're in razor blades in
Apple's territory end quote. Yes,the trans panic is in every way the

(36:07):
same as the drugs in candy onHalloween panic. Right, it just doesn't
happen. People have lost their collectiveshit in the same way with this as
they have with the satanic influence thatdoesn't actually exist. And these reporters in
establishment media need to come to thisfucking realization and fast. So what about

(36:31):
all those trans people who de transitionedafter apparently changing their minds? So I've
linked five studies in the show notesshowing that the number one reason for D
transition is social stigma anti trans sentimentamongst conservatives and liberals. One of the
most thorough studies on D transition comesfrom a UK clinic only sixteen of three

(36:58):
thousand, three hundred nine D eightpatients, or zero point four to seven
percent D transitioned, and of those, the vast majority D transition due to
social factors. Of the sixteen peoplewho de transitioned, one patient expressed regret
but was not considering de transitioning,two had expressed regret and were considering de

(37:21):
transitioning, three had actually de transitioned, and ten had de transitioned temporarily.
The findings here are consistent with previousresearch showing extremely low rates of D transition.
The paper concludes quote D transition wasmost often prompted by social difficulties rather

(37:42):
than changes in general identity or physicalcomplications, and was most often temporary.
Only three patients made a long termde transition. The results suggest that current
practices at the clinic are related tovery low rates of de transition and regret.
So, if you're following along,the number of trans people that exist

(38:04):
is infinitesimally small to begin with,with less than one percent of the US
population identifying as trans. But whenyou're just looking at D transitioners within that
group of one percent those who regrettransitioning for any reason, that number is
so fractionally tiny that it almost neverhappens, But it seems to be the

(38:25):
only thing that the right and establishmentliberal media care to talk about regarding trans
people lately. In June, theNew York Times published a front page scare
mongering story about trans people competing insports, as though that's some kind of
huge fucking problem when it's not.Again, you could count the number of
trans athletes on your fucking hands,and seriously, name one, just think

(38:51):
of one right now, don't googleit. Name one you can't. Again,
in June we get a front pagestory titled the Battle of gender therapy,
and we get the vanishing word andabortion debate. Women. I'm sorry,
but that's not a thing, youfucking hacks. Yeah, I'm sorry
that language changes over time. Andin addition to women, we also say

(39:12):
pregnant people from time to time tobe inclusive of trans men. You fucking
babies, Jesus fucking Christ. InSeptember we get another front page headline titled
more trans teens are choosing top surgery, and the very next month we get
they pause puberty, but is therea cost? And in January of twenty

(39:32):
twenty three, when students change genderidentity and parents don't know. It sounds
like trans people occupy a weirdly largepart of Times journalists' minds. I mean,
holy fuck, the Times opinion deskhas been actively preparing liberals to accept

(39:53):
the already escalating fascist violence against transpeople in the US and across the fucking
world. So I'm not going topick apart all these horrendously dumb fucking articles,
but I will, but I dowant to make clear that none of
them cite examples of their central premise, which is that kids might be transitioning

(40:13):
too quickly. Yes, you're hearingthat right. Not one of these articles
cites a single example of a kidwho transitioned too fast. Let's go back
even further and look at Jesse SinglesAtlantic article from twenty eighteen that more or
less started this fucking anti trans panic. Mind you, Single is pretty much

(40:35):
a leader in the anti trans movementamong East Coast fucking liberal media offsited by
anti transpundents. But the only examplethat remotely comes close enough to count as
an example of a kid transitioning tooquickly that Jesse provides in this article is
this, And follow me closely fromthe article quote Carrie Stella is the author

(40:57):
of a blog called Guide on RagingStars. Stella, now twenty four,
socially transitioned at fifteen, started hormonesat seventeen, got a double mastectomy at
twenty, and d transitioned at twentytwo. End quote, you caught that
right. Stella socially transitioned at fifteen, which can mean that she changed her

(41:20):
name, outward appearance like clothing tofeel more comfortable presenting herself to the world.
Two years later, at age seventeen, she started hormone replacement therapy,
and then, as a grown fuckingadult, she chose on her own volition
to get a double mastectomy at agetwenty and then d transitioned two years later
at twenty two. So if thespan of time between the age fifteen and

(41:45):
twenty somehow isn't an acceptable length oftime to know if someone is quote unquote
really trans as if that's anyone's fuckingbusiness in the first place, such that
the government should ban anyone from receivingcare, then what you're saying is that
you want to out law transitioning alltogether, isn't it. Yeah? As
for the very answerable question as towhether puberty blockers are permanent, which many

(42:09):
journalists appear to be either too stupidor careless to figure out on their own.
No, they're not permanent. Pubertyblockers have been prescribed to tens of
thousands of kids for a condition calledprecocious puberty since the nineteen nineties. The
condition causes early onset puberty at agesas young as seven or eight. Puberty

(42:29):
blockers allow those kids to delay pubertyso that they can go through that process
with other kids at the same time, which is great for all kinds of
psychological and sociological reasons. It's notirresponsible to claim that puberty blockers are reversible.
It's just the overwhelming experience of peoplewho've taken them. Period. But

(42:49):
all this dog shit reporting surrounding pubertyblockers in particular is having an impact the
state of Florida, for example.It's only evidence that puberty blockers are supposed
harmful. In support of SB twofifty four, a law banning gender affirming
care, is a citation to theNew York Times piece. The citation itself
is inaccurate and misleading, but itsevidence is that these concern trolling panic pieces

(43:15):
do real harm. This bill doesn'tjust ban gender affirming care for minors.
It bans all public funds, whichwill disrupt access to care for trans public
employees, and it bans care administeredby nurse practitioners, which will severely disrupt
care for trans adults. Effectively,it's a sweeping ban on gender affirming care

(43:36):
entirely, as Alejandra Carabaio, Sorryif I'm mispronouncing that wrote quote. This
is exactly the harms and consequences.Journalists are warned their reckless pieces will cause,
but they ignore it and write offconcerns as invalid because they come from
quote unquote activists end quote. Yeah, this kind of shit that's happening in

(43:57):
red states across the country is forcingtrans people and the parents of trans kids
to flee these fucking states. They'reseeking refuge in states that allow their existence.
So I'm stopping there with the examplesof how liberal media is helping fuel
the fire of right wing anti transhaatred and violence with misleading headlines and reckless

(44:19):
articles. But I implore you tolisten to the If Books Could Kill podcast
with Michael Hobbs. The episode titledThe New York Times War on Trans Kids
to get a better picture of what'sgoing on with liberal media in recent years.
It's fucking crazy. It's clear thatliberal media has a vested interest in
genming up fear of trans healthcare forprofit and also to prep liberals and progressives

(44:43):
to accept the worsening wave of antitransviolence and persecution. But to answer the
question if anyone remembers, no,trans kids are not transitioning too early,
too quickly, No, they're not. All indications point the fact that trans
kids receive adequate assessment. Moreover,there are somewhere between thirty to forty million

(45:05):
kids between the ages of ten andseventeen in the US. Among those in
twenty twenty one, one three hundredand ninety kids received puberty blockers, two
hundred and thirty one got hormones,and only two hundred and eighty two myssectomies
were performed on minors. These numbersare infinitesimally small, tiny, fractional.

(45:29):
The barriers to entry to trans healthcareare also incredibly steep. If anything,
those barriers should loosen, not tighten, let alone walled off completely and replaced
with what conversion therapy, which hasbeen an utter, fucking nightmarish failure for
over a century. The only reasonwhy the Times and other publications are devoted

(45:51):
so much, devoting so much timeand money to gin up panic around perhaps
the smallest group of people on earthis ad revenue. This shit is is
sensationalless drivel to draw more eyeballs totheir fucking websites as these papers die.
It's also important to point out thefact that anti trans rhetoric is so often

(46:14):
just recycled anti abortion rhetoric. Thereis enormous overlap in the rights weaponization of
abortion regret and transition regret. Boththings are worth studying and being open about
without stigma, but the possible negativeside effects of having an abortion or medically
transitioning are far less common than thepositive effects. And we can go on

(46:37):
and on about the truth, butit doesn't matter to these people. The
message is this, if you traversegender norms by exerting control over your gender
or reproductive capacity, you will bepunished for it. That's the goal.
Despite the overwhelming evidence that safe andlegal access to abortion services and gender affirming

(46:58):
care is astoundingly beneficial for those whoneed it, the cruelty of withholding access
to bodily autonomy is the fucking pointall these so called journalists who dive directly
into the anti transgrift for the opportunityand prestige of getting a front page headline
in The Times, claim to careabout trans people so much, but never

(47:19):
write an article on the increasingly organized, successful, and ruthlessly genocidal attacks on
trans people that they're reporting fuels.In twenty twenty two alone, at least
thirty eight trans people were murdered forbeing trans. I also want to say
that the right wing talking point regardingtrans murders being attributed to their quote unquote

(47:40):
lifestyle instead of correctly faulting the antitrans bigots who kill them, is some
fascist, fucking bullshit. Yes,many of the trans people who have been
murdered were murdered during sexual encounters aftermen paying for sex find out that the
person is trans, But trans panicmurders are apps salute fucking horseshit, and

(48:01):
no sex workers should ever have tofear this. The reason sex work is
such an unsafe career in general,but especially for trans sex workers, is
because of conservatives who force those inthe industry into the shadows of the black
market. It's often unsafe for thesame reasons that drugs are unsafe. An
unregulated black market is not fucking safe. Much like those addicted to illicit drugs

(48:22):
often end up not seeking help forfear of legal repercussions, sex workers often
don't report crimes for the same reason, and much like drugs aren't regulated by
the FDA because of fucked up USlaws, sex workers aren't able to share
client lists blacklists specifically on the internetto protect each other because of the CESTA
Foster laws passed in twenty eighteen.These laws supposed purpose was to prevent sex

(48:46):
trafficking, but these laws have hurtthe people they intended to help, pushing
sex workers and trafficking victims into moredangerous and exploitive situations. At the height
of the q andon fueled child sextraffic craze between about twenty fifteen and twenty
eighteen, CESTA Fasta was a perfectset of laws to use as political ammunition

(49:07):
to capitalize on unfounded, fucking paranoia, and anyone who opposed these dogshit laws
were incorrectly slandered as supporters of childabuse instead of the thoughtful critics that they
are. Funny. Isn't it thatif you aren't born into wealth, your
only capital is your labor, Soautomatically. Your own body is now a

(49:30):
commodity that you must sell, andif you can't sell it for enough,
you won't be able to care forit and will lose your only capital.
Conservatives champion the selling of human bodiesif these bodies are used digging ditches,
packaging up trinkets, loading trucks,building bridges, pushing pencils, or typing
on a fucking keyboard. But ifone's own body is being used to trade

(49:52):
sex for money, they lose theirfucking minds because giving people sexual and reproductive
freedom would break the patriarchal structures designedto control the bodies and lives of others.
This isn't difficult to like parse like. We know what's happening. The
point being is that it's not alifestyle of sex workers, or trans people
or any other marginalized group that makestheir lives more dangerous and on average,

(50:15):
bleaker than most. It's conservatives who'vecreated the conditions that render these people's mere
existence a constant and unnecessary fucking struggle. It's important to keep in mind that
many trans murders often go unreported.The figure of thirty eight murders in twenty
twenty two is certainly far higher,considering the fact that many of these murders

(50:37):
are often counted as male victim statisticsor not counted at all. Instead of
trying to prevent violence against trans people, Red States Republicans are actively attempting to
prevent people from being trends at all. But that's not how anything works.
As I've said, outlawing their veryexistence, all you're doing is pushing them

(51:00):
into the darkness just so that theseweak fucks can feel more comfortable. And
this is just the beginning that fuckingdweeb. Matt Walsh at The Daily Wire
tweeted last month, quote, theentire child mutilation scary scary wording industry can

(51:20):
be destroyed. We can take itall down nationwide. We're not there yet,
but we're on our way now.With whistleblowers coming forward, the dam
is truly breaking. And I justwant to pause that he's talking about the
whistleblower that I just talked about JamieReid. Walsh goes on, all the
momentum is on our side and we'renot stopping until the job is done.
End quote. Yeah, so onceagain Matt Walsh is admitting that he wants

(51:46):
to kill trans people by making theircare illegal because he's a horrible human being.
People like Walsh have also said thatthey're followers. You know, those
fascy, frothy, fucking fucks hurlinginside alts, urging people to commit suicide,
using slurs and amplifying hate speech.Is all deserved by trans people and

(52:07):
their allies. I don't know howclearer it can get that there's a concerted
effort to eradicate trans existence, butI'm gonna go ahead and provide you some
more material on that. Walsh hasalso tweeted, quote, our advantage is

(52:27):
that many of us in the movementare willing to do whatever it takes to
win. This is not a gameor a bandwagon we're jumping on. We're
willing to put it all on theline. End quote. Okay, Matt,
you said you and your fascion worshippersare willing to do whatever it takes
to win, and then immediately followedit with this is not a game.

(52:50):
You fucking learn how to use words, you dip shit dowep fuck. Secondly,
what Walsh is saying is that hisfollowers will hurt you if you don't
comply. It's fascism and I'm tiredof people denying that, including ostensibly left
wing liberals like the people at theAtlantic and the Washington Post and the New
York Times. And just to beclear, Walsh is one of the biggest

(53:13):
losers of all time. He'll beremembered in history alongside people like Anita Bryant
and others like Jerry Folwell who foughtagainst basic civil rights for LGBTQ plus people.
In nineteen seventy seven, Dade County, Florida, passed an ordinance sponsored
by Anita Bryant's former friend Ruth Shack, that prohibited discrimination on the basis of

(53:34):
sexual orientation. Bryant led a highlypublicized campaign to repeal this ordinance as the
leader of a coalition named wait forIt, Save Our Children. The campaign
was based on conservative Christian beliefs regardingthe sinfulness of homosexuality and the proposed threat
of homosexual recruitment of children and childmylestation. Because you know, it can't

(53:58):
be the fucking straight da down thestreet. It has to be the gay
guy. Bryant stated, quote,what these people really want hidden behind obscure
legal phrases is the legal right topropose to our children that there's an acceptable
alternate way of life. I willlead such a crusade to stop it as
this country has not seen before.End quote, Oh, how high and

(54:21):
mighty. Half a century ago,Bryant was using the very same Christa fascist
language against gay, lesbian and bisexualpeople that Matt Walsh and his ILK are
using today against trans people. Walshand those like him will be remembered as
the bigots that they are, Soworry not. May they all rest in
piss for their hateful misery that they'veunleashed on some of the world's most vulnerable

(54:43):
people. This resurgence of Christa fascismwith trans people now in their crosshairs and
reducing human beings to only a questionof science. But in the case of
anti transactivists, pseudoscience only leads toone place, and that's genocide. The
Wire host Michael Knowles are no lessnot sure how to pronounce it. Set

(55:05):
at Sapack recently quote transgenderism must beeradicated from public life entirely end quote to
cheers for a straight up eliminationist antitrans tirade, and then went on his
fucking podcast and said this shit thatI called to ban transgenderism entirely. I

(55:27):
made the point that if you want, if you want women to have their
own bathrooms, if you think womenought to be able to have their own
locker rooms and not have to lookat gigantic, gross men while little girls
are getting changed, if you wantany of those things, you have to
ban transgenderism entirely. It's not enoughto say, well, you have to
wait until you're twelve, or whateverpeople are saying now. It has to

(55:50):
be the whole thing, because ifmen have the right to behave as women
and identify as women for the purposesof public life, then women can have
their own spaces, and we asa society cannot have our own standards and
norms, and we're not allowed tolive according to reality. We have to
live according to the delusions of thesetroubled people. And I think we the

(56:13):
people have a right to reality,and I think women have a right to
their own spaces, and so thatmeans you got to ban the thing entirely.
Michael here is perpetuating the paranoid fearof men like him, ostensibly straight
cisgender men, of dressing up likewomen and going into women's restrooms for various
purposes. This has never actually happened. But if you believe all trans women

(56:34):
aren't really trans women, then thislive becomes easier to swallow. I know
that most conservatives never are in spaceswhere you know, there's unisex restrooms where
people can get together and not youknow, commit fucking sex crimes against each
other in open public spaces, butyou know they don't get out much.
Unisex restrooms are not new. They'vebeen around since the beginning of time.

(56:55):
Actually, if you look at historyand its accuracy, just like people not
being a new phenomenon, neither areunisex restrooms. But that kind of defeats
Michael's central premise, doesn't it.But what's most crazy is that he thinks
that allowing trans people to just livenormal lives like the rest of us somehow
means that he has to live accordingto the quote unquote delusions of trans people.

(57:20):
What's crazy is that his life willnot change and hasn't changed. No
one's has and no one's will.You're okay, buck up, you fucking
babies, And oh my goodness,what these people say. They said that
I was calling for the extermination oftransgender people. They said I was calling

(57:44):
for a genocide against I said,what, I must have missed that part
of my show. When did Idid I say that, Yes, you
called for the eradication of transgenderism.Listen, what do people think that he
means by transgenderism? There is nosuch thing as trans there's only transgender people.
What the right has done is thatthey've made the eradication the genocide of

(58:07):
trans people an easier pill to swallowby dehumanizing them into an ideology instead of
actual people. Michael Knows and hisilk car fascists who are prepping the public
to accept the genocide of trans peopleby dehumanizing and demonizing them, and by
demonizing, I mean literally compared todemons. Michael knows what he's doing.
He's not an idiot. But yeah, let's hear him gaslight some more.

(58:30):
One. I don't know how youcould have a genocide of transgender people because
genocide refers to genes. It refersto genetics, it refers to biology,
and the whole point of transgenderism isthat it has nothing to do with biology.
That's what the transgender activists say.No, actually, it's not what

(58:51):
the transgender activists say. It's whatyou've made up you said that again.
This is another example of how thesepeople will make up things that transactivists say.
Aside from the fact that there's ongoingresearch into genetics role in transingender diverse
people, there's ongoing science in thisspace. But god damn it, how

(59:13):
could I don't even understand how youcould even genocide trans people. Wouldn't it
be more like mass murder, fuckingpiece of shit. You can't call it
a genocide because it's not really anythingto do with the genes, you see,
So a more accurate way of puttingit would be surrounding a bunch of

(59:35):
people up and putting a bullet intheir skull. Fucking piece of shit.
Nazi, there's a bunch of fuckinguseless semantics. Get fucked. Oh no,
no, no, I wasn't callingfor the extermination of trans people.
I just want to get rid oftransgenderism. Uh right, No, we
know what you're saying. And thenhe makes it abundantly clear that he's dehumanizing

(59:57):
them, reducing them to something thatit's non human to justify violence against them.
This is what they do. Listen, Transgender people is not a real
ontological category. It's not a legitimatecategory of being. One of the main
steps on the road to genocide isdehumanization. People like Michael Knowles are doing

(01:00:21):
just that with this very clearly.What makes this even crazier is Knowles,
the far right Daily Wire host,starred in a pro gay movie when he
was in college. And I don'tbelieve that that's newsworthy necessarily, but Knowles
acted in a gay sex scene,and the guy that he sleeps with in

(01:00:44):
the movie is an undercover informant fora group working to roll back the sexual
revolution that's taking place on campus.He also starred in a pro gay music
video that's actually kind of sweet.It seems like Michael has a take in
a one point eighty and it's fuckingsad, but it shows how much money

(01:01:04):
that there is in hate. ButI want to make clear when Michael here
is saying that he wants to eradicatetransgenderism, he's saying that he wants to
eradicate transgender people. And people likeMichael Chate and others who inform the affluent
liberal class are acting like they don'tknow this. They can't help but to
downplay fascist rhetoric and wring hands aboutwhat they're actually saying, and it's fucking
dangerous. It's causing the hyper ignitionof violence aimed at queer people and their

(01:01:29):
allies, with bomb threats at hospitals, molotov cocktails thrown through windows, armed
militiamen showing up to queer friendly events, Legislation across the country proposed and passed
to eradicate trans people from public spacesand to eradicate their health care and in
some cases forcing them against their willto detransition, and a spike and hate
crimes and murders against trans people.So what else would you call it if

(01:01:52):
not genocide. If you have evenremotely a conscience, you will stop and
realize what's going on here, andyou will speak the fuck up before it's
too late and more lives will belost. Sitting on the fence and posting
from afar doesn't fucking cut it anymore. Get involved, Attend your local p

(01:02:13):
flag meetings to hear from members ofthis community who are being targeted by these
fucking fascists, to find out whatyou can do to materially help them.
Make time for them, because they'refighting for you, whether you know it
or not. Your rights are theirrights. The reactionary onslaught against the queer
community does not stop at them.It's a fire that spreads until it burns

(01:02:34):
everyone. The only contagion in thisscenario is regressive hatred and scare mongering,
concern, trolling, profiteering. Learnto identify it, and please do not
sit idly by while the right codifiesinto law the eradication and extermination of transgender
people. Alright, that was episodeforty one. Another fucking guy with the

(01:03:12):
podcast. You can find me onTwitter if you're still over there at Another
guy Pod and Patreon at patreon dotcom, Forward Slash, Another guy Pod.
Thanks for listening, including the discipleof set
