Transgender Drugs Dangerous [semi-satire]

The Biden Administration's claim to be looking out for the well-being of transgenders has been cast into doubt by a recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) finding that puberty blockers, known as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) substances, could cause vomiting, headaches, brain swelling and loss of vision in children injected with this drug.

U.S. Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine pointed out that "only a small minority of those taking this medication suffers the identified side-effects. We consider this a tolerable risk when the alternative is a life trapped in the wrong body. In my view, 'gender affirming care' is life-saving, medically necessary, age-appropriate, and a critical tool for health care providers. As a pediatrician, when it comes to making sure kids are healthy and happy, I know how important care that affirms someone's true identity can be. If this kind of care had been available when I was a child the results of my transition might have turned out to be less hideous than they did."

Jeremy Redfern, a Florida Health Department spokesperson, called Levine's position "deluded and self-serving. Our research has found that encouraging mastectomy, ovariectomy, uterine extirpation, penile disablement, tracheal shave, the prescription of hormones which are out of line with the genetic make-up of the child, or puberty blockers, are all clinical practices which run an unacceptably high risk of doing harm. The Biden Administration's threat to deny federal lunch funds to schools that refuse to abet his transgender policies is extortion in pursuit of medical malpractice."

Apparently, being born "the wrong gender" requires chemotherapy and disfiguring invasive surgery that makes the victim sexually dysfunctional for life, while counseling and therapy "sends the wrong message".
This is the world now, priorities are completely backwards.

We should always obey Admiral Dickless Levine.

Well lookie here, gang! The ACLU opposes chemically castrating sex offenders, which entails the use of the same gender bending meds. They call it CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT and a violation of the 8th Amendment. But administering those meds on "confused" kids,no worries, it's all good 😖🤬🤬

A puzzled Pence wondered, "was it something I said? ... I was only trying to help."

Love it.

Thanks John. Another week's news reviewed, the satire is allegedly in there somewhere.

Here’s the satire: Would Levine openly admit the health risks or the hideous outcomes even though they’re real?
