Jorge Agustín Nicolás Ruiz de Santayana y Borrás, AKA George Santayana, famously wrote "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". These days this appears to be especially true for those of the LEFT! In their unfettered passion for transgender 'rights', they have forgotten very recent history.

In the mid 1980s to the early 90s in the United States, there arose the great scandal of child sexual abuse in a multitude of private and church day care centers. 'Experts', who assisted law enforcement and the legal system, assured all in earshot, that they were unbiased and very exact in their interviews and investigations of very young children in such famous cases as the McMartin Preschool and Fells Acres Day Care Center. What HISTORY tells us from these cases is that many of these experts WERE BIASED and verbally battered these young witnesses into being their VICTIMS to get testimony against the accused adults.

I can see many analogs between then and now, especially with the sickening LEFTist Dogma that young children can make such unalterable life decisions. UNREAL but all too REAL! YES, there will inevitably be regrets, recriminations and then lawsuits by the victims against their abusers in the years to come.

I have likened these two issues many times.

Social contigation combined with changing adolescent brains and obsessive thinking.
