‘van der Kolk & Levine promote a # of ideas about trauma, PTSD, & trauma treatment that are problematic for a range of reasons; ideas that ignore large aspects of the scientific knowledge base, or misrepresent the state of the science, or are close/crossover into pseudoscience’

@netflix
His friend grew out a man bun and wears weird outfits & now they’re making a documentary about it bcuz people take this stuff too seriously lol
@LucaGuadagnegro
@netflix
You don’t have freedom from being made fun of when you do retarded things like being an old dude w a man bun prancing around in women’s clothes & then making a documentary about your friend coming to terms w it. This is absurdly self important & ppl will mock the f-ck out of that
@jk_rowling
@glosswitch
Omg just bcuz you replied - I read Harry Potter like 500x as a kid & those books got me through my childhood. Thank you so much for those books!!!!
@kittypurrzog
I think we should have a moratorium on adult autism diagnoses until we can figure out how to prevent practitioners from handing them out like candy to people who are often just weird or not good at life
@TheFamousArtBR
It’s like high school and you’re the person everyone gets to talk shit about while seeing themselves as being a good person for doing it
@YureiKurosawa
Give it 15 years when you mature out of your self obsessed extended adolescence and hit the wall of health problems that are coming from using hormones at a level that your body was never meant to tolerate & let’s see if you’re still delusional about thinking your a girl.
@MichelleAlleva
@detransaqua
I think the middle ground should be they can do their plastic surgery & body modification, stop pretending it’s healthcare, & pay for it themselves - like everyone else who gets plastic surgery
@DoctorVive
@tobygardner
Lol. You’re publicly trashing this person - gunning right for their reputation, & then simultaneously being like ‘aw shucks don’t throw his books away or try to cancel him’. You’re throwing this person under the bus & basically calling him a piece of 💩, just own it.
@DisgracedProp
I don’t really get Chalamet or Zendaya, I think ‘the movie star’ is dead & now we just uncharismatic stars of the moment who will go out of fashion every few years.
@Glinner
It’s weird how they just started mimetically laughing with him bcuz he chuckled when he didn’t even say anything funny. The power famous people have over plebs
@HarvardPSC
Lol, you aggressively mobbed someone for recording your very public performative protest - which is clearly meant for an audience and to garner attention.
@jk_rowling
@glosswitch
I don’t even want to talk about people’s creepy sex habits & I’m a woman. Seems like a fairly normal reaction that a average normie person would have, not just one a member of the ‘straight man’ identity group would have
@Bengals243461
@memeticsisyphus
So I wasn’t ever right leaning historically but snobby pretentious aholes like you sure do contribute a lot towards pushing people in that direction!
@AlottaMalotta
Given ‘gender dysphoria’ has become an obvious social contagion among kids w many false positives, & the medical field is acting w insanely poor judgment - it’s reasonable to assume the potential is for more kids to be harmed by childhood transition currently - than helped by it
@xxclusionary
It’s prob the psych drugs. This is basically the before & after of my BFF after she had to go on serious psych drugs to manage her Bipolar 1 condition.
@bourne_beth2345
The average normal kid is going to think this person is a creepy weirdo & prob mock them. The lonely outcast kids are the ones who people like this feed off of.
@MasteroftheTDS
@PhantomZer013
@SmashJT
I think the only reason
@alyssa_merc
is capable of rationalizing herself as always the victim in these situations is because she is a female. I think a dude wouldn’t be nearly this capable of BSing themselves
@itsBaBaBahFace
@YureiKurosawa
There is another fork where you will have to live down the fact that you did absurdly foolish shit like convince yourself you’re the opposite sex & take cross sex hormones bcuz it was the social contagion of the moment. Don’t forget that fork!
@TheFamousArtBR
To me this is a clear eg of how gender ideology & social justice wokeness plays into peoples egos. Empowered by gender ideology - they are able to see themselves as morally above you - & via this notion they have deemed themselves worthy of being your judge, jury, & executioner
@LeorSapir
Good luck. Teens think they know everything and have all the answers, they tend to be arrogant. & now we’ve filled their heads w dangerous nonsense, & convinced many of them they are not only better people - but know better than older generations.
@Sidewalk_Steve
@JamieWhistle
Iridescent Riffel, lol. They want the power to be as ridiculous as humanly possible while still being entitled to be treated like a serious person.
@feelsdesperate
Nah, it’s more compassionate to let them OD in front of everyone so we all have to listen to them death rattle while the train os stopped for 20 while first responders desperately try to narcan them back to life. Which is what I had to witness last time I took the train.
@RealKeriSmith
@BenjaminABoyce
I’ve dealt with BPD family members & they can have an odd mix of always seeing themselves as the victim in situations, & then also being incredibly motivated to be as spiteful as possible in response
@wesyang
Gender medicine has become this bizarre debate arena in which every lay person, across all walks of life, comes out of the woodwork to offer their 2 cents about whether it’s a good idea to nuclear bomb children’s bodies with obviously harmful iatrogenic medicine.
@jessesingal
So basically one cannot even *dare to contemplate & seek to analyze any issues or problems - if there is perceived to be more serious problems that exist? And you’re a terrible person if you even consider doing so? This is like the opposite of sensible & practical
@LilyWonderland5
@jk_rowling
@apmeehan
You’re talking about a felt sense of being male or female, which you seem to think can be a free floating phenomenon distinct & separate from the body. This whole thing you’re talking about amounts to a mystical spiritual belief, it’s a faith like idea in a gender soul.
@TwisterFilm
Trans aside, this person can’t act. They do hammy overacting in every role & basically play the same person in everything I’ve seen them in
@DonovanCleckley
The best illustration of why the people who do this to people need to be stopped & have their licenses & ability to practice medicine of any kind revoked forever.
@garylfrancione
The whole idea of ‘unsafe space’ is entirely one sided and absurdly hypocritical because the types that use this rhetoric have zero problems treating other people with different beliefs like complete garbage and making them feel unsafe
@Fredegonde_R
@2genders1truth
People adopt the belief wholesale the past was problematic & they don’t rely on the past as an indicator/source for common sense interpretations of the present. This is WHY ppl seek to destroy & discredit ‘the past’ by pointing out every flaw
@Sidewalk_Steve
I feel like liberals are increasingly treating life like an adult playground where they act out various increasingly ridiculous self induced dramas
@OwenJones84
He cares so much about trans people he think it’s absolutely worth the risk of talking in a way that can promote suicide contagion, even when guidance from LGBT orgs says not to
@jessesingal
The younger generations consider what amounts to oversharing of garish details about themselves/their sexuality as part of ‘being their authentic selves’.
@EudaimoniaEsq
The younger generations have a lavish childhood in comparison to what boomers had as kids. It’s rare to meet a boomer & listen to some of the stuff they dealt with when they were younger that wouldn’t be seen as something only the most traumatized child of today goes through
@DreyfusJames
@Eyeswideopen69
They experience euphoria when they get to call people transphobes. They’re dysphoric when they don’t have someone to look down on or feel morally superior to. That’s what the trans movement provides for these folks
@BillboardChris
This person is an adult who apparently reverts back to behaving like a toddler when convenient for them. This seems to be a thing w the younger generations
@Do_the_reading
@Tmychael
@RueTheDaylahan
@jessesingal
Rules for thee but not for me
They can incite harassment by freely defaming & lobbing accusations at people - while naming names, but you’re not even allowed to respond to their posts without redacting their name - bcuz only some ppl are required to to behave responsibly.
@franklinleonard
This is the most VAGUE statement ever - always intentionally so - so you can pretend to be saying some profound truth without actually having to ever qualify the statement as factual via substantiating the vast & likely endless claims encompassed by such a broad vague statement
@amayadeakins
@jk_rowling
@apmeehan
You’re referring to an imaginary ‘felt sense’ of being a woman, as if that’s even a feeling all us ladies apparently have, let alone would be something that could be felt by a man. Basically you have feelings combined with an overactive imagination
@sometherapist
The ppl who say this never really mean it, it’s a lie. THEY want to show up as ‘their true selves’ - while retaining the right to control & tell everyone else what the correct way to be their ‘true self’ is, & also condemn anyone whose ‘true self’ they don’t like
@_CryMiaRiver
They realize treating us like we are evil & beneath them didn’t work - so now they’re going to try to lecture us about how we should agree with them. HA!
@jonkay
@TFCNU2
Photogenic people are off enjoying the spoils of being photogenic, they likely have ZERO desire to be in a group where people are boding over mutual toxicity mental illness & misery
@YureiKurosawa
@detransaqua
Lol puberty is a necessary Norma process of development we all go through. I get that you think ‘trans’ means cosmetic outcomes override EVERY OTHER CONCERN - even normal/healthy mental/emotional/physical development - but there is no universe where this is a balanced sane view
@SwannMarcus89
These people always say a bunch of crap that anyone with an ounce of real world experience at more than a few types of jobs - could be able to explain why it’s a bunch of unrealistic impractical nonsense that would fall apart upon application in any real world conditions
@heterodorx
I recognize the value of public modesty, as in not parading around in public being overtly sexual (including heterosexual folks) more as time goes on. It saves us the drama of all of this. Some behaviors/self expression are nobody’s business but our own, & best confined to home.
@memeticsisyphus
Part of the issue is that they hate the people they’re mocking so much they don’t even bother to understand them properly & don’t hold an accurate grounded view of them. It just comes off as obnoxious snobbery. To be funny & good satire it has to be grounded in truth & reality
@amayadeakins
@SwipeWright
Trans is your religion & you have to build these crazy rationalizations that’s it’s totes cool & normal for healthy young women to induce all these horrible symptoms in themselves as a direct result of taking hormones that are damaging their physical functioning
@fenixamy
@redpilledhomo
When people just immediately bring up their supposed childhood trauma to random strangers out of nowhere to win arguments it’s safe to assume they’re prob full of crap
@msediewyatt
@AusPsychReview
Brilliant article. Points out there is no objective measure of gender identity, part of how you know this nonsense is ideology
@DaleCloudyman
@MythinformedMKE
They want racism to continue - they’ve modified the definition - so their racism is not racism anymore & they don’t look bad for doing it - they engage it as a strategy to achieve power and influence - while making it unacceptable for other people to do the same.
@DreyfusJames
The level of bigotry that people seem to think is entirely acceptable to exhibit towards conservatives or anyone people label ‘right wing’ is revealing
