How the transgender social contagion took over this Alaska town
Washington Examiner ^ | August 25, 2022 | Kelsey Bolar

Posted on 08/25/2022 11:25:55 AM PDT by karpov

On a small, unassuming cul-de-sac in Alaska, the mother of two young daughters came face-to-face with the growing phenomenon of adolescent girls identifying as the opposite sex due to a social desire to appear transgender. Critics call the social contagion theory “unfounded” and “absurd.” But for Susie, whose name I’ve changed to protect her family’s privacy, she watched it unfold in her own neighborhood, inside her own home.

After returning to the United States in 2020 from a four-year assignment abroad, Susie’s family settled into a house on a street where two out of the eight girls identified as boys. At the local high school where their daughter would soon attend, at least another 10 girls identified as the opposite sex. Shortly after moving there, Susie’s oldest daughter, who had just turned 15 years old, also said she felt like a boy.

Susie’s daughter was still wearing skirts and makeup. Growing up, she never had "tomboy" tendencies or showed signs of gender confusion. Susie didn’t believe that her daughter’s sudden transgender identity was anything more than a phase, so she and her husband chose not to make any drastic changes, settling on a “wait and see” approach. They wanted to give their daughter time to experience and explore her feelings without giving in to the lie that their daughter was anything but her biological sex.

But every institution surrounding them, from health professionals to the public school, and a local LGBT support group, rushed to validate their daughter’s gender confusion, treating it as real. Worse, they intentionally deceived Susie and her husband, using their daughter’s birth name and female pronouns in official communications while using her made-up name and male pronouns behind closed doors.

“Decades of “I DON’T CARE WHAT IT IS THEY’RE A’DOIN’ SO LONG AS THEY AIN’T A’DOIN’ IT IN MUH FACE” has allowed things to get pretty far out there.”

Yes. Just the other day four or five FReepers said just that: “Don’t care what they do in their own bedroom”.

Cable TV/Satellite is garbage for your children. Nothing so unique, they get these ideas from watching it. Monkey see monkey do still holds true. Back in the day it was how so many people named their kids the same name. They all watched the same movie. This trans stuff is just lunacy, and it got a big push with Bruce Gender and those Kardashian whores.

health professionals to the public school

I think I see the problem. If a "health professional" started spewing this crap to my daughter, it would likely be the last breath they took

Susie and her family might do well to attend a Christian healing week on vacation. Revival is happening across this nation and those strong family’s who are believers will introduce their children to a local church where the Bible is preached as God’s Word and study God’s Word in their home as foundational principles for life eternal.

People just think about today and their unicorn future VS. eternal life that could happen at any time.

Yes! I didn’t think about that. Tattoos with a special ink that will easily be detected when you pass your hand below a scanning device. Everywhere you go you see women tattooed men tattooed they are playing with our psyche to accept tattoos so that when the time comes they can easily convince those to get a numbered tattoo. The devil already experimented with that in the concentration camps and it worked like a charm. So why not use it in today’s technology that we have. Brilliant! The tattoo method they will use will be so fast people won’t even feel it. Heck if they can keep going for a shot after shot after shot they can tolerate the tattoo needle.This is a tattoo that will mark your fate forever! You can’t rub it out you can’t wash it off you can’t ink it out not even surgically. I believe doctors will be punished with death if they try to remove these tattoos. WOW! Eye opener! Societies already conditioned to accept tattoos! Even grandmothers are getting tattoos now a days. They look awful but they’re getting them.

The damage being done to children is immense. Very sad. Very wrong.

I remember as a little girl, I liked boy stuff meaning I was never interested in playing with dolls or makeup. I liked to ride my bike, build tree forts, and play with frogs. I was still a little girl (I was just a tough little girl!) and thank goodness this muck wasn't going around at that time. We must allow kids to be kids and maintain their innocence as long as possible. Don't hurt them with this BS.

(Yes! I didn’t think about that. Tattoos with a special ink that will easily be detected when you pass your hand below a scanning device.)

From what I understand, MICR tattoos have been tested.

Magnetic Ink Character Recognition was used to encode checks for faster processing.

I was writing software for a regional bank and my commute buddy was a girl hired the same day as me.

She was testing the machines and writing the integration software. One of the machines, about 6-7 feet long, was sitting right outside our cubes.

There would be many of them eventually installed.

Now a microchip card, or person or phone could do this:

Completely conditioned.

A QR code could be tattooed on a person as well, IMHO.

I would not be surprised if the town was named “Salem”. There seems to be too close a connection to the mass-psychosis of the Witch Trial Salem to be a coincidence.

there may be another explanation. Girls notice that boys are treated differently by the adults and their peers. For whatever reason, they think that boys are favored with more attention than girls and if there is a number one thing that teenage girls want, its attention.

Not named is like “anonymous sources said”. I know there are lots of small towns and villages but this sounds more like something around Fairbanks, Anchorage or Juneau - money is on Juneau area where all the bureaucrats live.

Well you know that song that goes...I will follow Jesus no turning back no turning back. That sounds exactly what’s going on right now we can never turn this country back to the days gone by. So just strap yourself in ...pray that our merciful God will hear the cries of his people and will deliver us for a season or two. Otherwise we’re doomed! But the beauty about all this madness that’s going on in this world the Lord said look up for your redemption draws nigh. That is the only event waiting to happen everything else prophesied in scriptures has taken place! So look up, hold on to the Lord’s tassel until we see him in the sky.

Accompanied by mass psychosis, a phenomenon that has occurred throughout history and is worth reading into to fully understand what’s happening with the trans delusion.

No town in AK is named Salem. Looking for other explanations is avoiding the point, making excuses, being nice while getting clubbed over the head by wokers

God help us. I feel especially sorry for the dad. He must just want to provide for and protect his daughter and is probably completely unequipped to deal with this sort of psychodrama and institutionalized evil.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Already been done. There are stories about the QR code and Barcodes being tattooed. Some for Covid. Others for rewards at local markets.
