Vice President JD Vance’s Bluesky account was suspended within minutes of him joining the platform. His posts criticized medical treatments for transgender youth and claimed pharmaceutical influence over healthcare decisions.
I still can’t believe that a deranged asshole like him is legally allowed to be VP of a nuclear power
good fuck him
Says can’t trust experts because they are clouded by ideology and bribed by industry quotes an judicial expert who’s entire job is to inject right wing ideology into the judicial branch while being motivated by bribes.
Stay classy, MAGA. You don’t give two shits about your country, you actually did steal an election, and the backwash is coming.
Did they steal an election ? Or did they still two elections ?
Make a new account, immediately start spewing unsubstantiated conspiracy theories, get banned
I gotta say, I am liking blue sky so far
The thing with his argument is that I just struggle to imagine a scenario in which the experts and affected agree and we’re better off listening to judges, lawyers, and politicians instead.
There’s no reasonable argument from the avenues I’d listen to those groups (such as appeal to fundamental freedoms, rights of the individual, etc) where the position should be to bar these people from receiving treatment they want against expert recommendations.
In short, Mr Vance demonstrates the intellectual rigor I’ve come to associate with the denizens of Middletown Ohio, and the firm belief in one’s own right to be the arbiter of everyone else’s life I’ve come to associate with his ivy league education and tech background.
This is a man who argued with the pope about catholic doctrine a few years after converting and I honestly can’t make up something more exaggerated than that
Good. Fuck that guy.
no thanks.
he’s got a face only a couch could fuck.
I know several brick walls that would love to fuck his face.

The biggest delusion in modern society is thinking that a Twitter-like social media network is “the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis”.
I keep hearing the media repeat this bullshit. Twitter is not and never was the “public square”. It’s a place for morons to be morons and heart each other for being morons.
What a pos. nobody is “pushing” these medicines on kids. it’s ultimately the kid’s decision about whether they want these medications or not and I’m not aware of any cases to the contrary. also these medications have been used for literal decades so how can they be experimental? how do you expect people to trust you when you lie so blatantly? glad he got banned.
Happy Pride Month ❤️
also these medications have been used for literal decades so how can they be experimental?
Honest answer: the drugs are being used off-label. It’s not even experimental, it’s basically a wildcat way of using them. An experiment would involve control groups and a double-blind trial, among other things.
I’m saying this because this is what rightoids are saying as criticism and you need to be able to counter that with facts. Right now, there just isn’t enough information and that’s what they’re capitalizing on.

40 years of using hormone blockers for precocious puberty. “Not enough info.” Fuck the whole way off.
double-blind trial
No. The data is fine. It doesn’t need to be perfect.
This is the exact opposite of what the reports out of the UK, Netherlands, Sweden, etc. are saying. They’re all very seriously restricting their youth transitioning clinics because the quality of the available data is so poor it cannot be relied on. Beyond the replicability crisis, there are ideological actors on both sides making absolutely junk studies.
Hence the need for proper experimental data.
What’s the regret rate for gender affirming care?
And this is the point where he playbooks “i was just asking questions i was just being reasonable why are you so mean unreasonable leftist echo chamber etcetc”
Which only works when people let it. A swift “you started ranting crazy bullshit” is what is needed here.
That is one stupid sonofabitch.
Stupid shit has no rightful place in normal society
Imagine thinking that one Clarence Thomas is less corrupt than thousands of doctors.
Coming from Vance, I like how the logic underlying the statements presumes a profit motive undermines the result.
If I had to be my-name-1 I’d probably just quit out of embarrassment
