Bizarro World was a fictional cube-shaped planet introduced in early 1960s DC Comics. It featured bizarre, opposite versions of Superman, Lois Lane, and others. In the Bizzarro World, Aquaman could not swim, Marilyn Monroe was the ugliest of all women, and evil was good. Since then, the term Bizarro World has come to mean a state of being that is the complete opposite of reality.
Recently, President Biden called legislation targeting transgender people in Florida “close to sinful.” “It’s just terrible what they’re doing.” In a preview clip from The Daily Show, Biden said, “It’s cruel... It’s not like, you know, a kid wakes up one morning and says, ‘You know, I decided I want to become a man, or I want to become a woman, or I want to change.’ I mean, what are they thinking about? They’re human beings. They love. They have feelings”. The President went on to say, “and the way we do it is we make sure we pass legislation like we passed on same-sex marriage... you mess with that, you’re breaking the law, and you’re going to be held accountable”.
Biden was reacting to the fact that Florida lawmakers have introduced several bills, including House Bill 1421. The bill would outlaw gender-affirming health care for transgender minors, including puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgeries.
Biden is not alone in this…
Newly confirmed U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is unable to define the word woman.
Really?
Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine recently announced that “gender-affirming pediatric care, cross-sex hormones, and even surgeries have support at the highest levels of the federal government.” Levine, a transgender person, proclaimed, “President Biden supports you... and I, as the Assistant Secretary for Health, will support you”.
Last October, Joe Biden invited Dylan Mulvane, Ulta’s transgender influencer, to the White House to down defend children being gender transitioned. Mulvaney is popular on TikTok, where “she” posts her 100 Days of Girlhood series. The videos show her daily experiences as a transgender woman, from buying her first designer bag to taking hormones. The account has more than 8 million followers. This is the same Mulvaney who made a video pretending to be the six-year-old cartoon character Eloise.
How many millions of real American women would have more valuable things to contribute at the White House but are cast aside for this clown?
Hollywood types have also jumped on this perverse bandwagon. Mulvaney recently appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” to discuss the Tik Tok series. During the segment, they discussed combating “hatred” in their careers while Barrymore knelt before the “courageous” Mulvaney.
Why?
Transgender kids and adults are cash cows. In this country, top and bottom surgeries can cost $100,000 or more, depending on how much work is done. After that, transgenders face years in the medical system. According to a recent study, the average hormone therapy cost for transgenders can be over $20,000 annually…for the rest of their lives. Add to that any costs not covered by insurance and additional corrective treatments needed, and we’re talking about a lot of cash.
Enter Planned Parenthood and the Federal Government
It’s no secret that Planned Parenthood rakes in nearly half a billion dollars of taxpayer money every year.
The Daily Beast reports that Planned Parenthood is now one of the largest providers of “transgender health care in America.” Facing abortion clinic shutdowns in an increasing number of states, the so-called provider of women’s reproductive health care is looking for new ways to grow revenues. With the average cost of an abortion being only $500 to $700, helping kids transition is fast becoming a gold mine that far exceeds what they were making before.
Planned Parenthood is an abortion mill that often bum-rushes confused clients into the surgical theater before they can change their minds. It is apparently turning out to be the same with people who want to transition. The process seems stunningly simple. All one needs to do is make an appointment at a Planned Parenthood clinic and quickly and easily receive prescriptions for cross-sex hormone therapy. This appears to be without any waiting period or pre-transition counseling about the risks involved with cross-sex hormone therapy, including, but not limited to, a greater risk of heart attack, vaginal and uterine atrophy, endometrial cancer, loss of bone density, sterility, sexual dysfunction, and red blood cell abnormalities.
Anyone less than 21 years of age is not old enough to make such a life-altering choice. Unfortunately, some schools, parents, and doctors will make the choice for them. Public schools have become recruiting grounds for an endless supply of innocent victims, even without parental knowledge or consent. If I still had school-aged children at home, I’d immediately pull them out of these schools and home-school them... no matter what. An internet search will help you find local and national organizations than can help you with this.
Vanderbilt University and London’s Portman Clinic tracked children with transgender feelings but who had no medical or surgical treatment. They discovered that 70 to 80% of them naturally lost those feelings with time. With that said, why is subjecting gender-confused children to hormone treatments or irreversibly surgically mutilating them not criminal child abuse?
American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, and the Children’s Hospital Association strongly advocate for pediatric “gender-affirming” care.
Gender confusion is a psychiatric diagnosis that corrupt doctors are attempting to treat surgically. History has shown that invasive medical treatments do not cure psychiatric illnesses. In 1935, Dr. Egas Moniz “discovered” another psychiatric illness cure-all, the lobotomy. Patients with this type of brain surgery often became stuporous, confused, and incontinent. When President John F. Kennedy’s sister, Rosemary, experienced seizures and violent mood swings in 1941, her father arranged a prefrontal lobotomy for her. The procedure left her permanently incapacitated and rendered her unable to speak intelligibly. Over the next twenty years, thousands of patients suffered these cruel surgeries until the insanity of it was eventually stopped.
The Fallout
Studies indicate that 82% of transgender individuals have considered killing themselves, and 40% have attempted suicide, with the highest rates among transgender youth. Those who had de-transitioned (going back to their actual sex at birth) were significantly more likely to have suicidal feelings and attempts than those who had never de-transitioned. Nearly 12 percent of those who de-transitioned attempted suicide in the past year compared to 6.7 percent of those who had not. (Source)
But there is hope...
While American children with little more than feelings of gender dysphoria are rushed into a medical intervention to “affirm” their new “genders” at an increasing rate, several European countries are beginning to opt out of this madness. The United Kingdom, Sweden, Finland, and France have recently taken steps to throttle back on transgender medical treatments for gender-dysphoric kids. Here in the U.S., Florida and seven other states have banned them outright, and 23 more are taking similar steps.
Then there are the legal ramifications. In a first-of-a-kind legal case, an 18-year-old California girl, Chloe Cole, is suing Kaiser Permanente, one of the nation’s largest medical groups. Cole claims Kaiser doctors coerced her into transgender medical treatment. She maintains that Kaiser was grossly negligent, resulting in permanent mutilation and damage to her body. Cole, who has since de-transitioned, alleges doctors and staff convinced her and her parents that medical transition was the only way to resolve her gender dysphoria and address her high risk of suicide.
Finally, consider this...
20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. 21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight. 22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks, 23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice to the innocent. 24 Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 5:20-24)
In a recent exchange with a high school student who objected to the Liberal and Conservative parties' pro abortion platform, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the boy he should 'pray' over his anti-abortion stance. Bizzaro indeed.
Great analogy and excellent essay Jim. Hopefully we've reached the bottom where even the "woke" say enough.
