I have seen more than one person suggesting that RFK Jr supports the idea of trans kids, and it is apparently based on a clip from his appearance on the PBD podcast with Patrick Bet-David.
Bobby stated that he would not allow transgender procedures without parental consent, but that he would have to do some research into the chemicals regarding the legality of those, but otherwise, generally speaking, he seemed to be saying that the government should not be involved if the parent is involved and supporting it.
I do not know Bobby's personal feelings, and don't really care, but policy-wise, I'm not sure what people were really expecting.
Were people expecting him to say he would empower the government to intervene in parental health choices? Did y'all really WANT that? Be careful what you ask for, because you just might get it.
The X tweet above is referring to one specific person who said that they can no longer back him because they believe in protecting children and so they are now backing Trump.
Not sure why this would make one stop supporting Bobby, especially to switch to Trump, who has been seen with the LGBTQ flag many times, put out a video of him kissing Rudy Giuliani in drag and essentially caused thousands of children to die due to lockdowns and rushed experimental vaccines.
Having once supported him, I would think any former supporters know him as generally libertarianish & loath to involve government in almost anything especially involving medicine.
Protecting children IS a big deal & from government is just one form.
I think many who consider themselves involved in the right side of the "Culture War" are grossly misunderstanding the distinct difference between culture & legislation. It's a leftist viewpoint to think we can legislate morality.
It didn't work in the USSR & it won't work here.
As a short-haired woman with a female-specific autoimmune illness, the gender ideology threatens my way of life more than most, but there are Constitutional restrictions on what the government can do regarding social issues.
The way to stop all of this degeneracy is not the lazy leftist way of tyranny, but, rather, daily cultural pressure, education about the PsyOps & fighting AGAINST laws getting involved in either direction, or else it will just become legislative tit for tat, with each Legislature piling on new laws to spite the previous Legislature.
If we let the left continue to influence culture without providing more alternatives, no matter how many authoritarian laws against degeneracy we pass, the culture will still be lost to dystopian depopulationists and that is a loss of something far more valuable than we can afford as a species.
They will just change the laws to go their way when they get their people in (just how they got rid of the transgender ban in the military after Trump was out of office), and they will collectively punish the right for your stupid attempts at authoritarian legislation.
Start influencing culture ourselves rather than just existing as consumers, complaining how bad it has gotten and then crying to the Gubmint for help.
We can't be rage-baited into giving government (more) power.
Mao stated that “power flows through the barrel of a gun” and most leftists, no matter how anti-gun, live by this.
Furthermore, the only law that exists is that which is enforced.
By expecting & requesting new laws, you're inherently expecting & requesting new powers of enforcement. You are creating new weapons for the system, which of course can be aimed at anyone or anything including the people who originally did the empowering.
It's much better to deal with the left culturally and on the street, where we are not bound by the restrictions that government has, and we do not want to remove those restrictions from government.
People feel more pressure from the people around them than they do from some law that is unlikely to be enforced.
The law exists in some book, in some courtroom, a world away from most people's reality.
Social pressure exists in your face, on your street, on your social media, all around you, and as such is much more real to the average person than the law.
Create cultural enclaves AKA “right wing ghettos” where certain ideologies are simply not welcomed.
Enforce your culture.
People from other countries are already moving here and doing this and creating no-go zones for Americans. They are banding together and electing people who represent their values. The Somali community and Rep. Omar is but one example.
We need to create no-go zones for Leftists.
Now.
TL;DR:
Fuck the government, bring back bullying.
