I don't want to derail this into contentious topics.... but I will anyway. evil laugh

There is also a tendency to encourage people to embrace unhealthy behavior as "normal." Obvious issues include the current treatment of gender identity. I know people who have truly chosen to transition, but it is almost a fad being shoveled onto kids now. The same age group that struggled with anorexia and bulimia when I was a teen are now being told to embrace their inner conflicts as proof they were misgendered. maybe some were. I would argue most probably were not, or at least the loudest people making these determinations are no more qualified than I am. More subtle issues relate to obesity, avarice, and authoritarianism. "fat acceptance" activists ignore the very real physiological science of human biology. "Greed is good," proclaim the people who want to manipulate the market with government force. "Just do as you're told and you won't get hurt," say the apologists for police brutality.
