This study did not assess whether participants met criteria for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth edition, diagnosis of gender dysphoria in children. Many parents in this study did not believe that such diagnoses were either ethical or useful, even if they had been diagnosed, and some children did not experience the required distress criterion after transitioning.

Based on data collected at their initial visit, these participants showed signs of gender identification and gender-typed preferences commonly associated with their gender, not their sex assigned at birth.11

Edit, oh, this was published in 2022. I bet Ben Ryan or Jesse Singal have already debunked it.

Let's see the list of the signs and preferences.

When the researchers started the study, no one they interviewed identified as nonbinary or used they/them pronouns, Olson told NBC News.

The findings may not be generalizable to all trans children broadly, either. Two-thirds of the study participants came from white families with higher incomes and more education than the general population. All families also supported their kids’ transitions.

Incredible.

Doing this while the Brown University shooter is still at large is quite the social media flex.

Hey, they're trying very hard

Not to call you guys out, but the tweeter: Begging people to learn this is how the FBI has always operated and blaming Patel for any of this is letting the institution off the hook.  

Two of the biggest cases of the 1990's, the WTC and OKC bombings, you know how they caught who did it?
WTC: One of the dudes tried to get the refund back on the rental truck that blew up.
OKC: A random Oklahoma trooper pulled over McVeigh because he was speeding without a license plate. Inside his car was a piece of paper talking about how much TNT they needed to buy. (And IIRC, illegal weapons.)

FBI agents tried to report the 9/11 hijackers were taking flying lessons without bothering to learn how to land, a bunch of them were on watch lists, and the DC office never did anything with this information for like an entire year plus. The story about the USS Cole bombing is even more absurd, the FBI basically told the agents to stop investigating or else they'd have to arrest a bunch of terrorists and that was emotional labor.

It's not just in the US.

The younger of the Bondi terrorists was investigated in 2019 for links to ISIS recruiters. They didn't find any radicalisation. 

Then the father applied for a gun licence in 2020 which was approved in 2023. That's an unheard of delay in approving a licence, 6 months maybe, but not 3 years, so I wonder what they found. I'm assuming someone marked it as suspicious, but no one acted on it and just put it aside, then, when the police got criticised for the ridiculous delays, someone just blanket approved the backlog. 

The son remained on ASIO's radar when they both travelled to a known terrorist training hotspot in the southern Philippines (neither has any links to the country) a month before the attack.

There was also a massive failure of communication between intelligence services and the police because no one seems to have told anyone else what they knew.

It's going to be fun when they have an enquiry. The level of incompetence has been through the roof already and we haven't even scratched the surface. You can tell when the politicians are panicking, because they're planning on recalling Parliament before Christmas to ram through a bunch of draconian laws targeting lawful firearms owners to deflect from their failures.

i think what makes me increasingly angry about anti-benji sentiment is it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you live in a country where politics often features discussions about the ills of benji, that will increasingly force benji to the fringes

Your reports just make him harder.

It’s been said many times. Canada’s response hasn’t been to “return land to indigenous” or whatever. It’s been to have dramatically high levels of immigration. So you say somebody stole your car, you ask for it back, they respond by filing your Nissan Versa with thirty passengers from India and China. Makes sense.

I'm on a hunger strike every day from 8 to 12, then 1 to 5, then 6 until 7 the next morning (the longest and most significant part of the strike)

[benji]

I identify as on a hunger strike.
