The number that discovered they were while shut-in for nearly a year or more is tremendous. I wouldn't be surprised if the TransEra population doubled from that, especially as the curious ventured into their Discords.

I legit wonder how much social contagion happened there. The NYT had an interesting article about Teens developing Tourette because they kept seeing it on TikTok

At a conference on tic disorders last summer in Lausanne, Switzerland, doctors from several countries shared another observation: A surprising percentage of their patients with the TikTok tics identified as transgender or nonbinary. But without hard data in hand, multiple attendees said, the doctors worried about publicly linking transgender identity and mental illness.

Perhaps unsurprisingly the "cure" was to stop paying attention to their Tourette fits.

But without hard data in hand, multiple attendees said, the doctors worried about publicly linking transgender identity and mental illness.

But... it already is? Not only are the mental illness rates among the trans identity population massively higher than the general population, the community itself argues that much of it will kill itself over any slight.

And if there's no link then why does it need medical treatment?

As a parent (  ) I think it's important to not let uncontrollable things like the capriciousness of government, natural disasters, or the eventual heat death of the universe weigh too heavily on your kids. Walking around the house wailing about the 1438th Evil Thing Trump Did Today does children no favors.

It's possible that this dude never even brings it up around his kids but...I somehow doubt that.

as a normal human it's important to not let such uncontrollable things weigh too heavily on you either

what the fuck does it accomplish? "who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life?"

and it's actually not hard to simply observe and take note of such things without freaking out every moment of the day, to not be irresponsibly cavalier but also to not be irresponsibly shaking and wailing

Nice advice to give to JD Vance.

resettis love to larp as political experts but keep forgetting that feds don't control voting

When 2026 comes and elections are still a thing in the US, the people screeching this nonsense will surely admit they're wrong and consider changing their opinions I am sure.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/so-trump-his-allies-are-really-ramping-up-the-trump-2028-third-term-talk.1115127/

Why I doubt that he is going to get a third term… why the fuck he keeps doing it this over and over again? 

The screeching is encouraged by the same Trumptards and later they cry that people hate them.

As I said multiple times by now. It is over. There won't be fair elections going forward anymore.

"Um actually.., He can't do that"

If Trump can run for a 3rd term, then so can Obama.

If anything comes out of this either 1) Obama is going to be dead/in hiding/imprisoned, so it's not going to matter or 2) it will be interpreted via the court that a President can't serve two consecutive terms, which would disqualify Obama.

He'll do it, stay in office and dare anyone to throw him out, and everyone loyal to him continues running the country by force. You don't need a law to upend democracy -- you just upend democracy.

Yeah, I'm getting pretty exhausted with hearing "But he can't do *thing*!!!" as we watch him set about doing the thing he supposedly can't do.

JD Vance will run for president and Trump will be his VP. As soon as JD is elected, he'll step down and Trump will automatically become President. There's your third term.

But there is precedent.... The amendment's existence is due to precedent!

The amendment was originally done because FDR won 5 terms and at the time it was felt that was simply too long for one person to hold office (and him dying at the beginning of the fifth term kind of opened a big can of worms). There is absolutely no precedent for anyone since challenging the amendment either by simply ignoring it or challenging its interpretation in a court of law.

They're going full Nazi and everyone, including the media and the dems, will let them given any weak justification.

Yeah I hear this so often, especially from family members. Never assume this guy is joking and he's literally breaking so many laws as it is. And he certainly isn't going to give up his power willingly.

He's not joking and never has been joking.

They've been laying the groundwork for awhile. It's an undeniable fascist social-political movement and they are going to cling to power for dear life at this point.

Anyone that thinks he's just barely "ramping up" hasn't been paying attention. It was clear the moment we knew he would be running again that he'd do everything he could to stay in power. There's only one way he leaves.

herp derp, he's just going to say he can do it and everybody is going to agree, this is how things work now because I say so even though I have no clue what I'm talking about 

[Polident]

because the ones who partake largely do it in secret amongst their other racist family members, friends, and colleagues where they think they can get away with it without consequence.

 

I can't stop laughing at the thought of a family getting together and doing blackface

In fairness, when normal people picture blackface, it’s something like the jazz singer. When these guys do, it’s

"Sure, I was wrong when I said he wasn't going to leave office the last time, but this time I'm definitely going to be right. And I may not even able to explain why I'm going to be right but only an idiot would think I could be wrong a second time!"

[Boredfrom]

Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl and Techno Mechanicus

Yes those are their names

And he has the fucking nerve to get worked up over his kids making decisions about their own gender and names.

Gender is a choice?

No kidding, but I misread that as Trump saying this to himself.

[Potato]

Interesting Nep comes out of the woodwork today to educate us all about blackface, but when the real commie poors were having a melty in the 4k tax thread dear leader was nowhere to be seen

Don't be cunty or I'll put you in gay baby jail.

[Chudder Barbarity]

spirits seem to be at an all time low on era. Was it this bad during the first trump presidency? Everyone seems like they're on their 12th reason why and it's only been a month. :v how are they gonna make it to mid terms at this rate?

They hadn't mainlined everything they have since for eight years back then, including four years in which they were "in power" but never stopped shadowboxing the looming chud threat. They didn't even know back then how many genocides were happening, hell, most of them didn't even yet know they were lesbians to be genocided in the first place.

this is actually a shocking realization

gender craziness "started" around 2011 and really got into full swing in 2013, and was at full blast by 2017/18

how many people have we more or less watched fuck their brains on estrogen? how many were a little weird but generally sane and then only rose to our attention when they suddenly blossomed into lesbians?

I still can't tell where this all originated from. 

It had to be some lunatics on tumblr right? and then they gained legitimacy after gay marriage thing with activists now needing something new to proselytise with. and then they migrated to twitter after the tumblr porn ban and it exploded from there thanks to the wider audience. 
am i right or just ?

It’s become a fucking grift at this point, fuck you.

Oh? So they should just die? Just be lowered into a strange contraption that grinds them into a paste? A paste that racist butchers mix into the meat of Black customers? Racist butchers who then go home and wear blackface with their familes? That's what you're saying?

These same guys redraw Japanese children from cartoons as obese black hijabi adult theys with vitiligo, then threaten to murder families if a fictional character with a suntan is drawn one shade lighter.

Earlier today my coworkers told me about a guy that was harassing people on the street for money. This afternoon he was right outside our office and we heard him yelling at someone.

"I want a drink! Just buy me a fuckin' drink! BUY ME A FUCKIN' DRINK!"

It made me think about Wylder.

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

this anti-trans talk is really harmful

the only way y'all can make up for this is by sending me money in PMs.

[StandingOvation]

Speaking of sending things in PMs, we have a new edgy meme being spun up in several threads:

A Google Lens Reverse Search (Benji and mine’s secret sauce) shows that they’re using it as code to say KYS, then acting mysterious in the thread, telling others that they’ll only infer what it means by reaching out via DM. Children.

Talking about the Ford F Series, etc.

Not talking about construction workers, business owners, plumbers, electricians, and such.

My cousin wants one. He works in a bank and is not a handy man, hunter, or anything lol. He's a white collar guy, through and through.

What's the appeal of these things if you're not using them as a work truck? What's funny is that many even have smaller bed sizes too. So it's pure aesthetics.

Folks pay 1000 bucks or more on car note for these monstronsities. I don't get it.

Erabot just don't undestand people.  He wants to be a human so bad

perfect example, this is exactly what I'm talking about, the pathological need to bring up world events at every available opportunity regardless of context
