So the SLPC (Southern Poverty Law Center) has put Gays Against Groomers on its list of so called “Hate groups”.

You can’t make this stuff up!

Their reasoning is that Gays Against Groomers is ‘anti-trans conversion of children’. Which is by their definition hateful.

By my definition, making permanent alterations to something as fundamental as a child’s reproductive system is hateful beyond belief. We’re talking Josef Mengele level criminality.

Oh and not for one minute do I believe the medical profession saying that puberty blockers and hormone therapies are reversible.

I’m linking the Breitbart article here.

Ya gotta love the irony, A gay group, who is about protecting children from harm by taking a stand against what amounts to medical malpractice driven by a fringe group within the gay community, (if one subscribes to the concept of “Do No Harm” from the Hippocratic oath,) is defined as a hate group.

Why? Because they are taking a stand against the Trans agenda that is quite honestly destroying the LGB community.

It’s not that gay people hate trans folks, it’s that Trans folks have damaged almost everything that the LGB community built and they’re continuing to destroy the LGB community. Bars, Dating, and the cohesiveness of the LGB community have all been poisoned. Traditionally male and females spaces outside the LGB community are being invaded by, I believe in most cases, individuals who are not Trans, but who have seen opportunity to “belong”. Some within that group are simply about being perverts getting thrills offending others while being a protected class.

There are women who’ve had mastectomies that call homosexual men, (note the word homosexual) horrible names because the men are not interested in them. Uhh one defining feature of homosexual men is that they like, and want to have sex with other biological men. Ya know, men who can ejaculate and have actual working penises…

The Trans agenda has wrought more harm to the LGB community than the Westboro Baptist Church and similar religious organizations across the United States EVER did.

[I tried searching for the other names of churches and organizations who fought against gay marriage and gay rights. Interesting thing about that. It’s kind of difficult to locate articles about those folks. Where once there were hundreds of articles both pro and con, now there’s this weird miasma of articles that are sort of related but not informative. Even narrowing the search to a specific range of years doesn’t help. Regardless of the organization existing or not, I’d expect for the articles to still be available.]

I suppose that highlights what I’ve pointed out several times about the underlying flaw in the internet. It’s very easy for something to be deleted or “go missing”. The internet is not an archival system. There is no rigor whatsoever in publications. 

[I wonder if I’d find the same “missing” information were I to look for negative articles written about folks who questioned the recent COVID responses? That might be worth a shot just for shits and giggles. Especially since there have been those in positions of fame or power who called for, “conspiracy theorists” and the unvaccinated to be placed in concentration camps, who have recently said “Forgiveness”, “Kindness” and “Grace” should be given to them.

It has not gone unnoticed by me that not once have these authoritarians admitted they were wrong or apologized for their hateful rhetoric.]

I digress.

I find it interesting that the SLPC also classifies Anti-Government Groups right along with Hate Speech, and White Nationalist groups.

Excuse me? Who in this country after the past 3.5 years isn’t anti-government? Has this administration done a single thing to engender trust in the government? 

One of the groups the SPLC describes is called Neo-Völkisch. Honestly, I’m not entirely sure that Neo-Völkisch is wrong. Of course I could say the same of The Proud Boys. I think the SPLC triggered on the Neo-Völkisch because there’s German in the name.

I’d bet that gave at least a few folks at SPLC “The Vapors”.

I’d say that Gays Against Groomers is in good company. Based on the descriptions of some of the other “Hate” groups. I think it’s hysterical that Gays Against Groomers is on the same list as California Family Council which is anti-LGBT. How’s that work exactly???

I think this points to two fundamental things.

1) The Southern Poverty Law Center is no longer trustworthy, and quite possibly a front for a totally communist agenda.

2) Gays Against Groomers is having an impact against the Trans Agenda, and the Trans folks are attempting to rally their troops.

If I were part of Gays Against Groomers, I’d be reaching out to other “Hate” groups on the SLPC list. Particularly those groups that are for home schooling, and generally anti-government. Some of these would also be Anti-Gay but those that were simply about parents having the right to dictate what their children are taught in school might be natural allies. For that matter, the National Coalition for Men might also be an ally if their Philosophy is to be believed. They’re also on the SPLC list of Hate Groups.

I’ve noticed a pattern. To get on the SPLC hate list, all you have to do is be slightly counter culture.

Who would have thought that educating children in traditional ways with traditional subject matter, or protecting children from chemical castration would be controversial? I’m surprised that the SPLC hasn’t added anti circumcision groups to their “Hate” list. BloodstainedMen for example. However, the National Coalition for Men also mentions that circumcision isn’t cool.

I’m sure that next week, Doctors protecting Children, will be added to the SPLC list of hate groups. Especially since they just released this;

“Therefore, given the recent research and the revelations of the harmful approach advocated by WPATH and its followers in the United States, we, the undersigned, call upon the medical professional organizations of the United States, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Endocrine Society, the Pediatric Endocrine Society, American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry to follow the science and their European professional colleagues and immediately stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex. Instead, these organizations should recommend comprehensive evaluations and therapies aimed at identifying and addressing underlying psychological co-morbidities and neurodiversity that often predispose to and accompany gender dysphoria. We also encourage the physicians who are members of these professional organizations to contact their leadership and urge them to adhere to the evidence-based research now available.”

Pretty powerful stuff and 180° opposite what the Trans would have any of us believe.

I think the real problem is that Gays Against Groomers and other organizations like them, threaten the medical industry’s income.

Face it, hormone therapies, and continuing medical care for a Trans Child or Adult is lucrative. The Doctors are creating a patient and associated income stream for the life of the patient. Virtually all disciplines of the medical profession stand to make money. Psychologists, Endocrinologists, Surgeons, & General Practitioners just to start. Over time, all the rest of the Medical Industry gets a taste of that patient. The younger they start, the longer the doctors get to bleed money out of them. More properly, out of their insurance companies.

No-one wants to think about the medical profession being driven by greed instead of the desire to help. I however, believe that greed is the driver and as proof I point to the last 4 years.

Gays against Groomers also has a position that the liberal left can’t assail. Gay people know damn well that 40% of the population suddenly identifying as Trans is absolute bullshit.

Trans people, real trans people, not fetishists have always been very rare, and they do deserve protection. The Gay community has always afforded real Trans people protection and inclusion.

What we’re seeing today is something else entirely, and it is destructive to the rest of the LGB community in that instead of having a cohesive group, that looks out for each other, we’re being divided and subdivided agains and again until no one subgroup has a strong enough voice to actually be heard.

Gays Against Groomers may well be our only voice, and it’s not about banning or marginalizing Trans people. Gays Against Groomers is about not damaging children.

In the course of an afternoon, a child can go from being a fireman, to spaceman, to doctor, to Indian Chief, to policeman. Typically we understand that all of those are possibilities, but wait until the child settles down before handing them a gun, firehose, scalpel, or blasting them into space.

Gays against Groomers is simply saying we should be a lot less quick to pump a bunch of drugs into kids before they have the capacity to understand what it all means.

Somehow it figures that the SPLC would list “normal” LGB people as hateful. 

This kind of irony is comedic and actually pretty sad.

The SLPC announced layoffs. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch of people! It’s unclear how many people are out the door, but early reports say as many as 60.
