So for anyone wondering what the context is for Jimbo's declaration that the UK is committing genocide against trans people I'll lay it down:
- The British NHS has only one gender identity clinic, the Tavistock Centre
- A previous patient of theirs, Keira Bell, brought a High Court case against them
- At 16 Keira Bell was given puberty blockers by Tavistock after about 3 hours of consultation
- A year later she was prescribed testosterone
- Keira Ended up having a double mastectomy at 20
- Keira eventually discovered she wasn't trans and began de-transitioning, but the changes to her body were permanent
- Keira is only one of thousands of children under 16 who are referred to Tavistock
- She took Tavistock to court claiming they should have challenged her more before prescribing puberty blockers
- The High Court agreed, saying treatment is experimental
- Children under 13 are "highly unlikely to be able to give informed consent"
- "Doubtful" that children between 14 and 15 can understand the long-term consequences of puberty blockers
- The courts now must play a larger role in the treatment of children
- The Tavistock Centre, as a result of the ruling, have immediately suspended all treatment to under-16s
- They plan to appeal
- Insane gender cultists have thrown a monumental hissy-fit decrying the ruling as bigotry that will prolong the suffering of trans children
So that's the "genocide" of trans people. A victim brought a court case against a medical centre after giving her experimental treatment as a child, that she didn't need, that led to irreparable damage to her body and mental state. I wonder how many Keira Bells there are? Confused children who are pressured into destroying their bodies by radical gender activists cosplaying as doctors.
This isn't genocide, Jimbo. It's protecting children from ideologues and zealots.
