Isn't that the point of the post?

The government literally covered up the massive leap in suicides since banning trans care for youths.

Bit more than not being represented.

That's not what genocide means. You can't come up with your own definition of a word then attack people for not using said made up definition.

That said genocide doesn't quite fit as it's not based on race or culture. Eugenics would be a more correct term.

Almost everyone cares deeply about their identity. People's identities just pull from different things.

An equivalent would be banning a certain sport or type of music or food type, etc. that people identify with.

If they tried to ban football or rock music you can bet a lot of people would lose their minds.

I think the point is they don't hate who they are. We don't let them be themselves. They hate who they are forced to be.

lmaydev ,

It pretty much is. If you ignore the culture / race part. Eugenics would be a more correct term.

lmaydev ,

I wonder if that's because it's one of the most mentally draining ages.

Often the parents forget about them rather than intentionally leave them with no windows open.

lmaydev ,

They're actually right. In most cases people simply forget to put a window down or sometimes that the kid is in the car.

There's also no need for ableist language like that.

lmaydev ,

No u

lmaydev ,

It's usually they haven't slept for days and the kid is asleep in the back.

I saw one where they drove past their kids school and went to work.

No one plans to do this. It's not hugely common but it does happen.

I was left at the supermarket once. These things happen. But sometimes the consequences are just much bigger.
