Absolutely did not advocate for lynching and killing trans people like 50s and 60s.

Wink wink, nudge nudge.

Trans people must be stopped, for the children!

We all know what his words mean, the veil is thin enough that even a moron would understand it, and thick enough that the law protects him.

if you can’t correlate the exposure of the public to such comments with the rise in violence against LGBT people, I’d recommend some self-reflection and asking yourself what the consequences are if you are wrong.

Hopefully you are capable of feeling empathy towards others.

He did not in fact advocate for lynching or killing trans people. In the 50s and 60s they would have been treated as mental health cases, not executed on the spot by sharpshooters.

I guess that makes it better, mental health was great at the time and they probably would not be subject to torture. I would advocate someone with a similar view or belief to be treated like JFK's sister.

They probably would not have been subjected to torture, no. If you're thinking of lobotomy, I believe that was phased out around 1951 or so, and it wasn't intended as a form of torture.

>for the children

I think it's only natural to not want children to be part of a group with very high suicide rates or otherwise be ideologically compelled to take life changing medication based on short term emotions and group pressure.

Hopefully you are capable of not only empathy but understanding for the opinion of others even if they fall outside of your beliefs.

What Charlie has advocated for.

He advocated for treating mentally ill. How truly evil.

He advocated for killing, incarcerating, and conversion “therapies”. You should familiarise yourself with what’s happening there.

The more you try to sane-wash the more you show what kind of person you are.

How about we listen to the actual doctors and not a political opportunist whose legacy is advocating for guns right after kids have died?

Ah yeah the totally not politically captured science that made the problem worse in the first place.

Not having a authoritarian knee jerk reaction after a tragedy is indeed the right and level headed response. Or do you also think there should be no privacy online because bad people misuse it?

All you’ve done is live up to your handle.

The good thing about science is that it doesn’t need a “trust me bro”.
