Parents With Inconvenient Truths about Trans #transphobia pittparents.com
There are still a few “Protect Trans Kids! Protect the Dolls!” posts popping up on my social media, but they seem to be limited to my most woke and clueless friends. My mainstream mom friends are taking deep breaths and keeping their mouths shut. That is a positive sign. I’ve got to believe that we’re swimming towards the surface of “Believe the Science” again: no one can change sex. Even if Trump’s executive orders are flipped in a few years, I don’t think the Democrats can tie themselves to this anti-woman and anti-LGB ideology again. Most Americans aren’t buying it anymore. The War is over: Trans lost, Reality won.
But I’m still thinking about these confused and vulnerable kids – the gay kids, the autistic kids, the lonely and isolated kids. There are at least four girls in my daughter’s high school who are transitioned – two of them on testosterone. There are at least six more in our social circle who have medicalized, and another 14 I know of who have socially transitioned. Everyone has a neighbor, classmate, family member who has been caught up in this. What happens to them? I predict there will be a broader retreat from this mass psychosis, and many of these young people will learn to walk through the world carrying the physical scars and mental damage from this era. Like the generation of Vietnam Vets who ambled around my city during the 1970s and early 1980s – they will be the wounded victims of a pointless war.

And yet – today I learned about Henry Gunther, the last soldier to die in World War I. He died charging a German roadblock on November 11, 1918, at 10:59 am - just one minute before the Armistice was to take effect. There was no delay in the news- Henry knew the Armistice was coming, it had been announced that morning. In fact, when he sprang up from his position, Henry’s commander ordered him to not charge. The German soldiers tried to wave him off. When Henry persisted and began to shoot at them, they returned fire. Henry had been obsessed and “determined to make good before his officers and fellow soldiers.” I doubt Henry’s family was comforted by his beliefs as they buried his body.
Who will be the final adolescent sacrificed to trans ideology?
