Perhaps people are trivializing the actual affliction and are “appropriating” the identity the way it has been done with blackface or wearing drag for the fun of it etc. I actually hope so since the opposite would imply a lot of psychological torment. But regardless, we must once again look at society and upstream issues.

For example, if a girl preferred traditionally male activities, today that is 1 of 2 criteria she needs to be considered as having gender dysphoria, while in the past she’d be called a Tomboy before. That was a normal acceptable category for explaining her tendencies. It didn’t come with an assumption that she is “REALLY” a boy inside and should make a decision on whether to take advantage of the latest technology to physically transition her gender before she hits puberty. And to be fair, the amount of people undergoing hormone blockers or surgeries is still low compared to the number of young kids who identify as trans. But if the capitalist psych and pharma industries have their way, they’ll push it to increase.

Most tomboys eventually changed as they got older, it was a phase, and it was contextualized differently by society. Also they had a mom at home, raising them, etc. Today both parents are away. School administrators cover their butt and say the parents can’t be notified and even if they do, they have no say. A lot of the industry increasingly is pushing ONE interpretation on all cases. An interpretstion that didn’t exist even 10 years ago. This is an experiment in novel interpretations and it’s not working well so far in terms of mental health outcomes.

Many times throughout history we had such interpretations (eg Hysteria for women, or chemical castration for gays) it turned out that the problem was societal.

Whereas something like, say, gender dysphoria has positively exploded in diagnoses. It’s a worrying disorder, which (eg unlike autism) studies show leads 30-50% to attempt suicide. So any increase in its prevalence to 5% of the emerging US population is worrying. If this was, say, a coronavirus with that kind of risk to life, we’d all be worried.

I want to be clear - I am not saying that the symptoms aren’t real and that “this is all in their head”, or that we need “conversion therapy” or something. I an saying the major systemic problems are upstream and by changing THE SYSTEM we will reduce the incidence instead of only focusing on medical interventions downstream as bandaids.

As an analogy — if we addressed antibiotic overuse on factory farms and sugar and high fructose corn syrup and pink slime, fast foods etc. we could address the epidemics of obesity and diabetes, including in children. But instead we focus on inventing new ways to medicate them!

And when the coronavirus comes around, instead of recognizing that these very same factors (obesity and diabtetes) are highly correlated with morbidity and mortality with that virus, we once again look for vaccines against the virus and once it subsides we continue to IGNORE all the systemic upstream factors in the underlying chronic epidemics in USA.

Autism could very well be yet another one, maybe it is like autoimmune diseases that are related to microplastics, maybe they affect hormones like aestrogen and testosterone. We need to LOOK UPSTREAM.

What makes it difficult for some experts, is that they perhaps dont know there can be 1000-2000 mitochondria per liver cell, and Mn Super Oxide Dismutase increases with manganese intake and beta alanine, which is required for MnSOD.

Point being are symptoms of depression caused by not enough manganese and beta alanine, when looking at how its missing from so much food and water.

When looking at aging, at end of life, feeling the cold is also a symptom of not enough manganese as the iron based reactive oxygen species generates the most heat in the body, ergo increase MnSod, more of the iron based ROS in the mitochondria can take place, like unblocking a drain.

Even the WHO have just rolled back on its manganese in drinking water guidelines.[1]

High fat diets also increase the faecal excretion of manganese, and alcohol contributes to manganese deficiency.

The risk with it, is with kids getting too much as it triggers puberty early as it increases luteinising hormone, and in adults, this would suggest an increase in sexual activity, which from a law enforcement point of view, is undesirable, but also probably explains why Weed makes people horny besides it phytoestrogens, namely because leaves, including tobacco will have the most amount of manganese in.

So it would seem there is a lot of meta data pointing to not enough manganese. Water regulations also require manganese to be removed from the potable water in the UK, so there will only be a few micrograms of the stuff in water.

Obviously pre-internet and personal mobile surveillance phones, trying to find and identify a chemical change to control the population would have been order of the day, but when seeing the rise in depression, have we reached a point where its becoming obvious there isnt enough manganese in our diet?

It also alludes to the possibility that cell sensing contributes to immunity as a 1st line of defence using ROS, something that is hindered by not enough manganese.

And obviously, less than optimal health contributes to the preservation of society, law and order.

I could put lots of links up, but cant be bothered at this stage.
