“Remember that all people are weak and are unjust. Learn to forgive, not to be offended. It is better to move away from what is harming you - you cannot force love… Do not look for friends among people. Look for them in Heaven - among the saints. They will never leave or betray.”

I used to think the “schools are transitioning kids” thing was just your average right-wing moral panic but recently a young girl in virginia was led to transition by her school without her parents knowing, was sexually harassed and threatened while using the boy’s facilities (per the schools suggestion even though they knew she was getting rape threats), ran away from home because of the bullying and harassment at school and then was sex trafficked.
at what point are the prominent activists of the trans movement going to just acknowledge that they’ve gone too far and they are hurting girls? will they ever? do they seriously not realize that this shit is causing an unbelievable amount of backlash against not just them, but gay and lesbian people as well who have nothing to do with this?
the only people calling it out are deranged right-wing media outlets because everyone else is terrified of being called a nazi and losing their job due to pressure from activists. we need more normal, level-headed people talking about this. no more endangering girls and women for the sake of a political agenda.
Michelle Blair also denounced the court-appointed lawyer who deprived her of custody of her daughter and left the girl in a vulnerable situa
I'm not a fan of this source and it clearly has a conservative slant to it. The only reason I'm sharing it is because it contains the lawsuit that the mother of the minor filed in response to this event, and I was able to verify that the lawsuit is real and the documents attached are indeed from that lawsuit.
Okay I've read the allegations in the lawsuit and they are so disturbing. CW for sexual abuse and trafficking of a minor. There is actually so much more to this than I thought.
The lawsuit alleges that the Appomattox County Schools deliberately concealed SB's (the minor's) gender identity from her mother, and used an alternate name, alternate pronouns, and used opposite-sex facilities at the school, without the mother's knowledge. The school (allegedly) also witheld information regarding bullying, including verbal, physical, and sexual assault, from the mother because the bullying was related to SB's gender identity.
The lawsuit alleges that the bullying led SB to run away from home, after which she was found by an adult male, who kidnapped, drugged, and raped SB in the backseat of his car. He drove her to Washington DC, where he dropped her off with two men who drugged and raped her again. The two men then drove her to Baltimore, Maryland, and left her with a registered sex offender, who kept her in a locked room, raped her, and trafficked her to other men.
In Baltimore, SB was rescued by law enforcement, who then notified the parents and told them to come pick up their child. Before the parents arrived, a Maryland public defender was assigned to represent SB. This public defender (allegedly) began a process of trying to keep SB from her parents custody after learning of her gender identity. The public defender accused the minors mother of abuse and neglect due to her "failure to support SB's gender identity." CPS got involved and SB was placed in the temporary custody of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services, where SB was placed in facilities with adolescent males, where she was sexually assaulted AGAIN, and exposed to drugs.
But wait, there's more!
Because of the sexual assaults, SB ran away from the Maryland facilities and was kidnapped by an adult male AGAIN, drugged and raped AGAIN, and transported to TEXAS, where she was raped and drugged AGAIN until she was rescued by authorities, notified her mother, and returned her to Virginia. Allegedly.
Holy fuck. I have no words.
All that, because the schools didn’t keep the parents in the loop.
this is literally what i keep saying and end up getting called a homophobe, nazi, transphobe and everything else for by some people. 😂
(except for my awesome followers/mutuals of course who see my points logically for what they are. )
i honestly love everyone, i just don’t like what some people do and facts are facts, we need more people to actually take a step back and see what is going on don’t just support whatever current thing the narrative consists of.
the people pushing these things as a political narrative hate you and many people fall for it just because they want to support others but everything going on right now only hurts everyone and its only causing more harm the further it goes.
we need to love each other and consider each other more. stop supporting all the political narratives and take a step back. people are quite literally falling into psychosis on both sides for many reasons, quit the cult and be individuals again.
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
(Psalm 1:5–6)
“We have to be aware that what is being pounded in upon us is all of one piece; it has a certain rhythm, a certain message to give us, this message of self-worship, of relaxing, of letting go, of enjoying yourself, of giving up any thought of the other world... It is actually an education in atheism. We have to fight back by knowing just what the world is trying to do to us...”
– Fr. Seraphim Rose
