Another thing to distract the people over - with another campaign needing to be waged... fortunately this one segues into other things - discussion of borderline etc, the predominance of girls in BPD and also 'transgender' - and the effects of media in actually enhancing any BPD characteristics any individual may have already.... and so this also becomes part of The War On Woke.....

You don't suppose we predispose our girls for BPD by treating them as unearned princesses, do you?

I think the horse has bolted on this one Grapps

it's too entrenched

there a generation of kids out there that have been raised on it

even the ones you would have thought couldn't afford to buy the hardware

Yeah - here is someone whining about it:-

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/family-relationships/teens-must-not-be-punis...

'punished' by exclusion from evil sites? Well then - blanket censorship will happen at some time... not my choice.... make all new phones and computers and such - at the point of sale - ONLY opened by parental/adult thumb or eye print*, and let parents censor madness like tranny sites and other garbage... keep their kids away from porn and other rubbish that twists their ideas of reality...

The rage is up right now over how many kids are suffering mental health issues - girls especially who predominate in the 'transgender' fantasy and with borderline (good grief! Imagine a future where such a one could whine about 'violence to them' and the accused is arbitrarily arrested and locked away... you get my drift .. cops a 'Bruce Conviction' - piggy eyes and a prick) ... what does that mean for the future of this country, relationships, families and so forth? Especially while ever governments run around backwards like headless chooks to appease their every whine by imposing on others and stripping back legal and social rights .... no wonder young men will not buy into it any more... hit and run.

**visions of countless parents in morgues with no thumbs and eyes... now that's taking 'borderline' to an extreme .. like these fanciful school shooters - you don't get to reset once you lose**

It's spread to Europe....Pushback has begun in earnest against The Madness.... this part of The Madness is what reduces children to mentally shivering wrecks leaping from one side of the borderline to the other and wondering if their equipment makes them a boy or a girl.... you heard it here first - PUSHBACK! It began with the Cass Review into 'transgenderism'/'gender ideology... and was fueled by the NO vote 61-39 to the Voice here. The world suddenly woke up and realised that it could actually start saying NO to those things that create unease in them... True Woke....

https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/eu-probes-facebook-instagram-over-fears-of-...

Next in line:-

Aboriginalism
Voice by stealth
Immigration
Inclusion/Exclusion
Unequal Treatment
Education
Ethnic privileges/multi-culturalism...

Do lead on ............ you can add to the list as we go.....

Ah - I see - no thought for children who are increasingly pushed towards borderline personality because they live perpetually in a fantasy world of non-real contact and connection; who, on studies coming through, are falling behind in verbal and associated skills and thus in every facet of life; are prey to every madcap religion and ideology doing the rounds and at a vulnerable age; who will absorb unreality from video games which are often filled with violence; develop oddball ideas about sex and love and the opposite gender from watching porn; will be increasingly deceived by the 'evidence' of their own eyes into strange systems of belief and will, in far too many cases, end up on the chopping block at Cutter Island, and will ultimately end their lives as monstrous creations of a fantasy, most often alone and desperate with every mental problem of confusion unresolved, and often way too early after a lifetime of chemicals and other madness to sustain their delusion, and if they ever have children of their own, they will poison their minds with their insanity.

You don't care about kids? Who'd have thought that?

Well - the world doesn't agree with you..... it's Pushback Time, troll.

How are they going to enforce this one? Kids have been known to lie about their age. I personally never give my real birthday to websites. The only way to make it work would be to have some kind of government-issued proof of age that is required in order to go online. It would look dangerously like the CCP.

Grow the f*ck up, Monkey Boy. For one, you're not a clinical psychologist and two, quit reading your "I really care about the children" horseshit from regurgitating unscientific social ills from right-wing web sites. You're beyond tedious. No, you're beyond Blooby tedious. Who knew that was possible?

You telling someone to grow up?

Says Petula Pothead

I'd say Graps described you in one in his little summation and now your butthurt.

No one has to be a clinical psychologist to read people like you and what's written about declining social skills and education at all levels of reporting.

Light up & lift off Towelie.

I'm so...so...OUTRAGED over this non-story.

Well, Marla's ghost, that's now three states here out of seven who are getting right behind it... and the Prime Minister at Federal level ... non-story, you say?

As I posted elsewhere over the Cass Review report and gender ideology - the State has a duty to protect minors from harm as much as possible.... and parents have a right and duty to decide what is in their best interests and to protect them from harm. Cool

For a crazy old man light-weight I sure get some hits in the bulls eye.... JFK was called a lightweight - but he sure did some weighty things... as I said - I'm a progressive against progressives, who are the new conservatives.... that one arrived on the doorstep in discussion with a tranny enabler, who said all the reviews coming down the pipeline were nonsense because 'the science' about transgenderism was already settled - so I nailed him on now being the 'conservative' in the discussion and not open to new and additional research and facts. Grin

I'm sorry, darling... sorry I didn't get to you soon enough.....
