The Court’s ruling is narrow; it says that a state has the right to regulate the practice. States, mostly blue, that still allow youth gender transition aren’t affected. But the decision will likely lend weight to the arguments to people who want to end the practice nationwide. And it will likely help the legal efforts by “detransitioners”—that is, young people who say they were pressured into life-altering treatments they now regret – to get compensation. Surely more such lawsuits will now be filed.
With any luck, the court decision will lead to more lawsuits against those clinics that still allow this barbaric practice:
Gender transition clinics will likely be under far more scrutiny: This Free Press story describes the cases of two such young women who were given prescriptions for testosterone after about a 30-minute appointment at Planned Parenthood.
Again, the contagion took hold in the scientific world, of all places.
The idea that biological sex is not a fixed reality but a social construct took hold so quickly that, seemingly overnight, children in preschool were being instructed they could easily change their sex if they felt they were in “the wrong body.” In June 2020, the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine ran an article championing the idea that when a baby is born we can’t know if the infant will come to “identify” as male or female, so we should only tentatively designate what the child is “assigned at birth.” The authors also said sex designations on birth certificates serve “no clinical utility.” This is only one of many examples of how profoundly this ideology has captured powerful institutions.
When we suggest that this might be the beginning of the end, we are obliged to remark with Yoffe that American physicians, by and large, support child mutilation. So much for their dedication to science:
The Court’s ruling notwithstanding, the U.S. medical establishment remains firmly behind the practice.
In a more advanced countries, like England and Scandinavia, the practice has been banned:
Compare that to England, where a rigorous and independent report, the Cass Review, concluded that the evidence for pediatric transition is “remarkably weak.” Finland, Norway, and Sweden are among the other Western nations that have joined the UK in moving away from this treatment.
The ultimate horror concerns the simple fact that serious medical associations in America have embraced the practices:
Critics of the Supreme Court decision will argue that our major medical associations, from the American Academy of Pediatrics, to the American Medical Association, to the Endocrine Society, have all given support to this new branch of medicine. This is true. It is also true that these organizations or similar ones once supported lobotomies and eugenics. Just as that is a source of shame today, it is to be hoped that their vehement support of medically transitioning vulnerable young people will be a source of shame in the future. These medical societies have failed in their most basic duty of care to their patients by embracing a model that has so little evidence and such profound lifetime consequences.
Surely, it counts as a colossal failure, to the shame of American physicians.
The Supreme Court ruling seems like the middle of the end of Transmania. The beginning of the end may be Elon Musk buying Twitter because that was a big crack in the wall of censorship.

Excerpt:
In 1965 Mao Tse Tung was losing power and influence in China. To counter this, he plotted with his chief aide, Lin Biao. The issue was Mao’s waning influence, along with his age. This was the ‘new China’, in the process of exerting its influence in the world , and the Youth of China, did not want to hear from the old men of the Revolution. Mao and Lin had been together since 1925, when Lin joined the CCP, and became first a driver, then a military commander for Mao in the Wars against the Nationalists.
Lin was the brains behind the Cultural Revolution which was a deliberate plot to restore Mao to complete power within the CCP. The revolution was not an organic product of the society of China at the time. Lin planned it all. Just as he planned and let loose his curse on the USA.
Lin had been a deep student of psychological warfare ever since he had seen the effects of it during the Korean War on the American soldiers. It was in the 1950s that Lin started his studies in psychological warfare techniques that would lead to his test of this knowledge in the launch of the Cultural Revolution.
Lin had discovered that the psychological techniques so effective on the American soldiers in captivity in Korea did not require the structure that existed in that War. That is, Lin discovered that these same psychological techniques could be applied without incarceration, nor direct threats to life from an ‘authority/captor’. He had researched these techniques for a decade before unleashing them within the Cultural Revolution. Mao and Lin’s cultural revolution was based on 'making china sick'. Lin’s discovery of a ‘mind virus’ that could be propagated by propaganda was the ultimate prize for dictators.
Lin weaponized Munchhausen

Lin took the language, as well as the structure of communication, in the form of those parts of the MBP disease normally communicated subconsciously, and brought them forward into propaganda such that he could ‘broadcast’ the disease. Lin analyzed, and codified, all the language involved in MBP, and using propaganda techniques, he weaponized it against the Chinese population on Mao’s behalf.
Lin created a sexual revolution among Chinese youth starting in 1965, as he brought out the ‘Four Olds’. These were to be his ‘enemy’ for the population to hate, while the sexual relaxation of mores, and liberation of behavior was intended to disrupt the ‘traditional China’ social order (one of the 4 Olds needing to be destroyed). The idea is to create an ‘outside’ enemy, one that is ‘close’ in order to hype the fear component of the MBP, and to have the enemy ready as the mind of the victim becomes destabilized due to, in part, the redefinition of the language, or as it is known in the West, ‘language queering’.
