Transgender Violence, Mental Health, And Media Responsibility
Eight people dead within days and two countries, and yet the first casualty was clarity. We open the mic on a hard truth: when mental distress goes unmanaged, when policy favors speed over stability, and when media framing outruns facts, families get left to carry the wreckage. We walk through two fresh tragedies and connect them to earlier cases, highlighting documented histories of instability, prior police calls, and a pattern of warning signs that never turned into effective prevention.
We also unpack the quieter shift that changed how care is delivered: the move from classifying gender-related distress as a mental disorder to placing it in sexual health. That decision helped reduce stigma and unlock coverage, but it also reoriented treatment toward affirming medical steps while the slow, essential work of therapy, family mediation, and crisis planning often lagged. Add the volatility of hormones, the complexity of psychiatric meds, and algorithm-driven outrage online, and you get a combustible mix where vulnerable people are pushed toward loud answers instead of lasting help.
Rigorous mental health assessments, coordinated care and media standards that report facts without euphemism while centering victims. We share compassion for people in distress, insist on responsible systems, and call for policies that buy time for healing instead of racing toward irreversible steps. If you want less heat and more light on a topic too often reduced to slogans, this conversation is for you.

00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:04.719
In less than a week's time, eight people have been murdered.
00:00:04.959 --> 00:00:09.359
In both cases, the one behind the gun was transgender.
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.320
Today, we examine the connection.
00:00:12.640 --> 00:00:28.079
We look at the impact of prescription drugs, hormonal imbalances, mental illness, social media, and the World Health Organization's pivotal classification change that opened the gates to chaos.
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:30.559
Let me tell you something.
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.839
Everybody's drug.
00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:37.600
The difference is some people choose to go through it and some choose to grow through it.
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.079
The choice is completely yours.
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:46.399
Which one you choose will have a very profound effect on the way you live your life.
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.480
So excited to be back with you.
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:45.760
Oh, it is true.
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:47.680
It is damn true.
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:49.760
Why is it true?
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:51.040
How do I know it's true?
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:52.719
Because I love you, boo.
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:57.200
Woo! Episode 293 between you and me.
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:04.239
That means we have consecutively gathered week after week for 293 consecutive weeks.
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.040
That goes all the way back to the year 2020.
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.680
The summer of 2020.
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.000
July, to be exact.
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.039
Man, it feels like forever ago.
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.479
But here we are, yet again gathered together as friends.
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:27.120
This podcast is properly named, precisely named Share the Struggle, because everybody struggles.
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:43.520
The truth is we just come together each and every week, bold enough, courageous enough to share our struggles, whether they are individually or whether they are personally or whether they are just across this great here land, whatever it is, we come here together to share it.
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:54.479
Because the truth is, when we are willing to share, there is strength in that story, there is strength in that struggle, and together we shall pull through.

00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:31.840
Okay, okay, with that out the way, let's get into the topic of the day.
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:50.400
In the matter of a week's time, actually I think it's less than a week's time, there have been two shootings, separate locations, separate countries, one in Canada, one in America, where the individual behind the gun was a transgender.
00:03:50.879 --> 00:04:06.240
In both occasions, as the news of the shooting gets released, both local authorities are afraid to come out and say that the shooter is transgender.
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:22.240
Even when the press or political figures or responding officers are unwilling to say, eventually the truth shows its face, and it gets reported yet again that this individual is transgender.
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:31.360
No matter how they want to go about it, however, they want to mislabel it, however they want to identify it, the truth comes out.
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:37.920
This shooting is yet another transgender individual behind the gun.
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:23.199
Even if you want to protect the individuals or that community, I can understand if that's how you feel, but reporting it and repeating it at the time of such a violent, senseless act is just ridiculous.
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:24.240
It's uncalled for.
00:05:43.759 --> 00:06:09.839
It's amazing to me that this is the instant reaction of these people, whether they're politicians, whether it's people behind the camera on a mainstream news media channel, um, if it's the law enforcement at these local areas that are afraid to report because they don't want the riots that are going to happen at their doorstep, if it's the people that are afraid to say what they feel because they're worried about the social media backlash.
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:23.199
I don't know what the situation here is, but in a time of senseless violence, we need to just call out what it is a spade for a spade, speak the truth and report the news.
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:25.279
That's the world I grew up in.
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.000
That's not the world that we are in anymore.
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:35.680
Now, before repeating the news or giving the facts, but rather run it through the screening process to make sure that nobody's offended.
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:41.600
Would rather put it through the microscopic lens of does my constituents approve of this?
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:43.759
Does my support group approve of this?
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.480
Am I going to offend somebody that's paying for something?
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:48.879
I feel like everything gets looked at through that lens.
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:50.800
Like, this is my support group.
00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:52.000
I get this from them.
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.160
Boy, I don't want to riot from them.
00:06:54.639 --> 00:07:01.759
Everybody looks at things with that perspective through that lens, as opposed to looking at the victims and what's wrong in this situation.
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.920
How do we recover from this situation?
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:07.439
How do we send sympathy and help and support during the situation?
00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:11.600
No, let's be sensitive to the people committing the crime.
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:13.120
I'm over that.
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:16.560
And uh today we're gonna we're gonna tap into that.
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:22.560
A few minutes ago, I shed light on the fact that this here podcast started back in 2020.
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:28.319
So if you've been around since the beginning, if you're one of my day ones, my loyal ones, number one, get your ones up.
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.360
I acknowledge you and I appreciate you and I thank you.
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:39.600
Number two, I want to shout out if you've been listening, do you recall an episode we had back in 2023?
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:56.560
And if you're new here, then um I welcome you to this year podcast and I encourage you to go back to the year 2023 when we gathered yet again as friends, devastated over the news of a shooting in Nashville at the Covenant School.
00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:03.920
The shooter in that situation, in that uh mass murder situation, was yet again transgender.
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:12.959
August 27th, a Catholic church school shooting in Minneapolis, again, transgender.
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:20.000
The two shootings that I just referenced, February 10th, uh school shooting in Canada.
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.160
We're gonna dig into that one a little bit more.
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:30.000
February 16th, uh Pothocket, Rhode Island at an ice hockey senior night event.
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:43.440
If we start to broaden our lens here a little bit, the Charlie Kirk assassination, the killer was in a romantic relationship with a transitioning transgender.
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:59.840
If we think about the person that tried to um assassinate President Trump, that fired the um the bullet at President Trump, that individual identified as he, him, they, them, whatever.
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:07.919
In these situations, we are looking at transgender transitioning stories.
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:18.720
We now have eight people murdered in less than a week, two separate occasions, as I mentioned, the 10th and the 16th.
00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:48.320
We stole in this recent shooting here on the 16th, there's still two people, I believe, that are in critical condition because the uh trans individual, this man, went in, shot his ex-wife, murdered his ex-wife, murdered one of his children, shot and killed himself, but before doing so, also attempted to murder his former in-laws, and they are now recovering, hopefully recovering.
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:57.440
I know they were in critical condition the last time I heard, and he leaves behind, I believe, two other children, one of them that was during was, you know, in the actual hockey uh meet.
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.080
So I think he leaves behind two children.
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:03.519
Of those two children, think about life from their perspective.
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:12.960
They lost their mother and their father and one of their siblings, and potentially their grandparents, all in one day, due to their father's actions.
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:19.679
Killed his ex-wife, one of his children, and then himself.
00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:29.039
And reports are that a good Samaritan, a standby Samaritan, jumped in um to prevent any further shootings.
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.639
So thank the Lord for that person being there.
00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:36.320
The details haven't come out if they wrestled uh this man down.
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:40.399
Originally, I was like, was that maybe the the standby individual, the Good Samaritan?
00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:42.399
Maybe he was carrying a gun, but I didn't hear that.
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:50.960
I think that the um the uh the fella Robert that committed these this heinous acts, I believe he shot himself.
00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:56.639
Um but this instantly comes out and is classified as gun violence.
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.720
And this isn't a gun violence, in my opinion.
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:06.879
This is a mental illness situation, in my opinion.
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:13.679
Robert underwent reassignment surgery in um, I think 2020.
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:25.360
Yeah, it was 2020 that Robert underwent reassignment surgery, which he was, I believe, married at the time, and that was the pivotal point that obviously led to their divorce.
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:38.960
Apparently, in some of the court records and some of the findings, as I'm looking through over the internet, um, listed in that divorce decision was also his narcissistic personality disorder traits.
00:11:40.080 --> 00:12:05.519
And since this um act of violence, this heinous act, Robert's daughter that has been left behind has come out and said that her father suffered through great mental illness, um, a narcissistic personality, and several other just personality disorder traits that often led to um disagreements, spouts, and arguments and fights between between family.
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:09.919
So obviously, this all leads right back to this, right?
00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:12.399
So this resulted in a divorce.
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:21.360
Over the years, it looks like you know, Robert would show up to hockey games and different family events dressed like a woman as he transitioned, and that would start some fights.
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:29.440
I've seen recently online that um that Robert might have actually worked here in Maine at uh General Dynamics BIW.
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:32.320
I believe he was an electrician, at least that's what I'm seeing online.
00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:37.919
So some routes here to the state of Maine, which is uh obviously where I'm located.
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:48.879
If we look at the uh Canada situation, that was an 18-year-old Canadian who identified as a girl since the age of 12.
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:51.600
Did y'all catch that?
00:12:52.080 --> 00:13:01.600
This individual is 18 years old, is a guy, a young man, that has identified as a girl since age twelve.
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:14.559
This this child murdered his mother and stepfather, then traveled to their school and shot and killed five more students.
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:17.840
Let's just break this down for a second.
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:24.240
18-year-old kills their mother and stepfather.
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:31.600
The details are that this individual identified as a girl from the age of twelve.
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:46.399
For me, on the outside, I'm gonna make the assumption that that means your mother and stepfather allowed you to make the decision at the age of twelve to identify as a girl and spend the next six years living that way.
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:55.600
Yet you returned the favor to them with a bullet, then traveled to his school and shot and killed five students.
00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:01.519
Again, this individual had a documented history of mental illness.
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:15.759
Cops had responded to this house multiple times for um, you know, mental health calls, even at one time, seized firearms from the premises based off of some local laws.
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:23.519
I hope that we are starting to raise some red flags just in the description of today's show.
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:32.720
If we um slow down a little bit before we speed up and get through all the details, Robert, the individual in Rhode Island, transitioned.
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:46.879
That individual has multiple um identified mental disorders, documented mental disorders, and has family vouching for uh these mental disorders as well.
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:51.039
It's documented even in court um uh documents.
00:14:51.919 --> 00:15:11.039
This 18-year-old been living their life for six years as a girl with diagnosed, documented history of mental illness, to the point where law enforcement had been called to the house multiple times and weapons were seized from the household.
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:15.679
Both of these individuals suffer from a mental illness.
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:20.720
If we go back to Robert, he had reassignment surgery in 2020.
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.320
Let's think about this, folks.
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:38.399
Both people suffering from from massive mental illnesses, and if you're transitioning and you're having a reassignment surgery, there's a lot of hormonal, harsh drugs that come along with the surgery.
00:15:38.639 --> 00:15:47.279
You are rewriting God's wiring on you, and to do so, you need drastic hormones to do so.
00:15:48.639 --> 00:16:01.200
How is it okay to take people suffering with mental disorders that are taking mental medication that already has major impacts on your internal wiring?
00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:29.279
And then we're gonna go ahead and shoot them up with an with a crazy hormonal imbalance, and I'm not gonna sit here and pretend to know what goes into all these medications, but I can imagine if I'm giving somebody medicine to change their genetics, to change them from a male to a woman, from a woman to a male, if I'm doing so, I'm wreaking major havoc, and this has to be massively potent stuff.
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:32.399
Can we slow this down some more?
00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:34.480
Mental disorder.
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:49.039
These people are suffering, they are vulnerable, they are getting medication for their current situation, and then we're going to pour it on them, inject them, fill them with a hormonal crazy imbalance.
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:57.840
I was gonna save this to the end, but I'm gonna start sprinkling it here in the beginning.
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:12.480
It's all the the medical practices that go with this, it's all the doctors that administer this, it's all the politicians that okay this, shame on you.
00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:14.720
Shame on you.
00:17:16.799 --> 00:17:22.240
These eight people in this specific situation, their blood is on your hands.
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:32.640
Those innocent children and that shooting in Nashville, the innocent children in Minnesota, their blood is on your hands.
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.559
I don't know how you choose to sleep at night.
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:51.680
This has a direct result from your decisions, from your your policies, from your theories and philosophies and beliefs.
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:53.759
I hope that sets with you.
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:55.680
I hope that resonates with you.
00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:04.400
That Minnesota shooter opened fire and killed two children.
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:09.839
They also left a disturbing manifesto.
00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.519
That shooter left a note that said he was tired of being trans.
00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:24.240
And he wished he never brainwashed himself.
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:26.079
The shooter.
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:28.319
The death of two innocent children.
00:18:28.559 --> 00:18:40.640
A note was left behind the murderer saying he was tired of being trans and wish he never brainwashed himself.
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:49.279
Doctors, practitioners, politicians.
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:54.480
If you're behind this, I hope that this resonates with you.
00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:58.880
Those two innocent children's lives ended because of you.
00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:01.920
You fueled the brainwashing.
00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:08.799
You assisted in the brainwashing, you gave prescriptions to help with the brainwashing.
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:11.440
This is not okay, America.
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:15.119
This needs to stop America.
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:30.559
There's a social media post from Charlie Kirk that's been circling since um this past week's events, and um Charlie Kirk had come out and he called for trans to be banned from owning guns.
00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:43.680
He had a post that said, If you are crazy enough to want to hormonally and surgically change your sex, you have a mental disorder and you shouldn't own a firearm.
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:48.160
I can't disagree with what Charlie Kirk is saying here.
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:56.720
If you are crazy enough to want to hormonally and surgically change your sex, you have a mental disorder and you shouldn't own a firearm.
00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:08.400
Nothing here is saying that you can't have the surgery, but what's being said here is you're not stable enough to own a firearm if you really truly want to have that surgery.
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:10.160
That is a mental disorder.
00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:12.240
There is a mental imbalance.
00:20:13.359 --> 00:20:24.160
I read some further research that said that 39% of all LGBTQ young people seriously considered suicide.
00:20:24.799 --> 00:20:25.440
39%.
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:46.240
In the same test, forty percent of all surveyed LGBTQ young people report of having a gun in their home.
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:50.559
Can we draw some kind of connection here?
00:20:54.720 --> 00:21:09.440
It blows my mind to think about this Rhode Island situation and the governor coming out saying, you know, we've created a sanctuary city and environment, and we want to be here to protect and to unite our trans community.
00:21:09.599 --> 00:21:13.039
How can we have these conversations in the moment of death?
00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:16.400
That's not how this society should work.
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:25.920
While preparing for today's show, doing some research, trying to educate myself to bring good talking points to the show, I stumbled upon something that I did not know.
00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:29.359
There's a critical change that happened.
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:31.440
I was unaware of that change.
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:33.599
I'm gonna start by saying this.
00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:41.680
Wanting to transition or identifying as transgender was historically labeled as a mental disorder.
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:50.240
It was previously diagnosed as gender identity disorder or transsexualism.
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:58.240
Being a disorder comes with a mental illness diagnosis or label.
00:21:58.960 --> 00:21:59.759
So it was diagnosed.
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:05.680
Diagnosed as a gender identity disorder, that disorder is a mental illness.
00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:08.880
We then treat the disorder or illness.
00:22:09.119 --> 00:22:20.079
We help you to overcome the disorder or the illness, much like other mental health aspects, like you know, multiple personality and ADHD and OCD.
00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:24.000
We treat to overcome, we treat to help.
00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:32.720
Well, that previously diagnosed gender identity disorder is now looked at as a gender incongruence.
00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:44.640
In fact, it is looked at as a condition related to sexual health, not at all a mental illness.
00:22:47.279 --> 00:22:49.279
This is no longer a mental illness.
00:22:57.039 --> 00:22:59.519
Not a mental illness at all.
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:12.559
In 2019, the World Health Organization formally removed the disorder from the mental illness classification and moved it to a sexual health chapter.
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:28.480
Gender identity disorder is now gender dysorphia, which is a clinical term for the distress caused by a mismatch between assigned sex and gender.
00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:46.640
We moved from a mental illness, we moved from a disorder to a clinical term for the distress caused by a mismatch between assigned sex and gender.
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:52.880
It's listed this way for diagnostic and insurance reasons.
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:54.480
Why?
00:23:55.039 --> 00:24:18.480
Because now it is recognized as a condition requiring care to alleviate distress, not a disorder to be cured, to be approved upon, but instead, this is now a sexual health condition that's requiring care to alleviate distress.
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:20.559
This is no longer a disorder.
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:22.319
We need to alleviate distress.
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:25.519
This is now a sexual health situation.
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:30.559
With that said, I did some more research and I want to read some of the facts with you.
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:43.839
Gender dysorphia is not considered a mental illness in the traditional sense, but rather a clinical term for the distress caused by a mismatch between assigned sex and gender identity.
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:55.599
While listed in the DSM V for diagnostic and insurance purposes, it is recognized as a condition requiring care to alleviate distress, not a disorder to be cured.
00:24:55.839 --> 00:24:59.759
Digging into some of the details on here, this is kind of outlining what we've been talking about.
00:24:59.920 --> 00:25:04.000
There's some key details that they list on gender dysorphea.
00:25:04.319 --> 00:25:06.480
Digging first into the definition.
00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:17.920
It is the psychological, emotional, and physical distress resulting from an incongruence between one's sex assigned at birth and their gender identity.
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:19.920
DSM 5 status.
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:30.079
The American Cytriatic Association classifies it as a diagnosis to facilitate access to gender-affirming health care.
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:31.920
Bada bing bada boom.
00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:34.640
We have the culprit in the room.
00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:51.599
This new sexual health diagnosis comes with its DSM 5 status, which the American Psychiatric Association classifies it as a diagnosis to facilitate access to gender-affirming health care.
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:55.119
It goes on to say this is not an illness.
00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:58.160
It is distinct from mental illness.
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:05.039
Though untreated, it can lead to or coexist with mental health issues like anxiety and depression.
00:26:05.279 --> 00:26:14.319
Distinction from transgender, being transgender is not a mental disorder, only the distress, dysorphia, associated with it diagnosed.
00:26:14.480 --> 00:26:21.839
Treatment focuses on alleviating distress through gender-affirming care, including social, hormonal, or surgical transition.
00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:30.880
The World Health Organization has also moved away from classifying it under a mental disorder instead of placing it under sexual health conditions.
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:34.400
WHO World Health Organization.
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:44.400
This situation, this shit, this tragedy, this violence, these murders, this heartbreak is on your hands.
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:46.880
All you care about is the treatment.
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:52.400
All you care about is the dollars and cents that comes from the prescriptions that come from the surgeries.
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:53.920
You're preying on people.
00:26:54.079 --> 00:26:56.319
You are preying on people that are vulnerable.
00:26:56.480 --> 00:27:02.079
If I step up and defend the transgender community right now, they are vulnerable people.
00:27:02.559 --> 00:27:04.799
They feel outcasted.
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:08.319
They feel that, you know, they're put on an island.
00:27:08.480 --> 00:27:12.480
They feel that everybody's out to get them, that people are making fun of them.
00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:14.880
They feel trapped in their own bodies.
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:16.319
They're vulnerable.
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:31.200
And they go on social media, which breeds more hate and malcontent, because you have mainstream media out there putting fake, ridiculous nonsense on all avenues of the news, making everybody live in fear.
00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:45.119
You're preying on these people in the transgender community, making them feel that they're outcasts, that their life's in danger, they should live in fear, they should hide in their house because everybody else in society hates them and wants them dead.
00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:47.440
That's what social media makes them feel like.
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:49.200
They are vulnerable people.
00:27:49.440 --> 00:28:07.359
Shame, shame, shame on the mainstream media for just pushing hate, for breeding violence, and putting all this stuff in their face, and an overwhelming shame on the medical industry for just feasting on these vulnerable people.
00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:23.359
You took a diagnosis from a disorder, from a mental illness that would give them the opportunity to heal themselves, to cure themselves, to make themselves feel better, to make themselves feel more comfortable in their own skin.
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:34.559
Instead, you turn it to a sexual health condition, resulting in the opportunity for more hormones, for more drugs, for more prescriptions, and for surgeries.
00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:36.240
You're preying on the vulnerable.
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:45.680
You care more about the dollars from Big Pharma, you care more about the surgeries than you do these people and their lives.
00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:47.200
It's unbelievable.
00:28:47.440 --> 00:29:07.839
And if we keep thinking about how vulnerable they are, if you can imagine somebody that doesn't feel comfortable in their own skin, if you can imagine somebody that doesn't agree with their own birth right, like their own birth sex, they feel that they are, you know, a woman living in a man's body.
00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:15.200
There's clearly an ongoing extreme mental battle for this person.
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:28.960
Going untreated, going without any help, they're gonna spend the rest of their lives just chewing themselves up inside over not agreeing with their body, not being comfortable with who they are.
00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:35.839
Because you refuse to treat the illness, you refuse to attack the mental disorder to help these people.
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:39.920
So instead, we're gonna pump you full of hormones.
00:29:40.079 --> 00:29:47.039
We're gonna help you with this sexual, this the sexual health situation you have here, because we feel like you're stable.
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:50.880
You don't need the mental disorder, you don't need the drugs to help with that.
00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:55.440
We're gonna focus on the sexual situation here, and we're gonna pump you full of hormones.
00:29:55.519 --> 00:29:58.799
So you already don't like yourself, you already feel uncomfortable.
00:29:58.960 --> 00:30:06.480
Let's go ahead and rewrite God's wiring on you and change everything about you, and then see if you still feel any better.
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:44.240
Then while we're pumping you full of hormones, and we have you not knowing whether you're coming or going, if you're up or you're down, and you can't know which way to turn around, you're gonna open your phone, you're gonna go on social media, and you're gonna see all the nonsense, you're gonna see all the hate, you're gonna turn on, you're gonna turn on the news, and you're gonna see all the protests and all the rallies, and you're gonna see, you know, these purple-haired, freaking woe is me, attention-seeking freaking whores out there trying to stop ICE, trying to protect immigrants, trying to do all these crazy things, and you're gonna think that's a rallying cry, and those are my people, and let me go there for strength and for safety.
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:59.359
And all of these things are happening, and nothing's curing the situation, nothing's focusing on the disorder, nothing's focusing on helping you to feel better, nothing's focusing on making you enjoy what God gave you, nothing's focusing on making you feel healthy.
00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:00.880
No, we're masking it.
00:31:01.039 --> 00:31:14.720
And while you're hepped up on these hormones, while you have all this medication pumping through your veins, you're looking for support and you're finding it in the wrong areas because the mainstream media and social media makes you feel like you're an outcast.
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:20.559
And the more that you feel like an outcast in your own body, you have all forms of media telling you you should feel that way.
00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:04.719
00:00:04.959 --> 00:00:09.359
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.320
00:00:12.640 --> 00:00:28.079
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:30.559
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.839
00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:37.600
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.079
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:46.399
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.480
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:45.760
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:47.680
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:49.760
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:51.040
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:52.719
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:57.200
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:04.239
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.040
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.680
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.000
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.039
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.479
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:27.120
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:43.520
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:54.479
00:02:56.240 --> 00:03:03.919
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:04.879
00:03:05.039 --> 00:03:11.759
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:12.639
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:24.240
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:31.840
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:50.400
00:03:50.879 --> 00:04:06.240
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:22.240
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:31.360
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:37.920
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:23.199
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:24.240
00:05:43.759 --> 00:06:09.839
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:23.199
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:25.279
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.000
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:35.680
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:41.600
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:43.759
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.480
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:48.879
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:50.800
00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:52.000
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.160
00:06:54.639 --> 00:07:01.759
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.920
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:07.439
00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:11.600
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:13.120
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:16.560
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:22.560
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:28.319
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.360
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:39.600
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:56.560
00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:03.920
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:12.959
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:20.000
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.160
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:30.000
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:43.440
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:59.840
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:07.919
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:18.720
00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:48.320
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:57.440
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.080
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:03.519
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:12.960
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:19.679
00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:29.039
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.639
00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:36.320
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:40.399
00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:42.399
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:50.960
00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:56.639
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.720
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:06.879
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:13.679
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:25.360
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:38.960
00:11:40.080 --> 00:12:05.519
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:09.919
00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:12.399
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:21.360
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:29.440
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:32.320
00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:37.919
00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:48.879
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:51.600
00:12:52.080 --> 00:13:01.600
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:14.559
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:17.840
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:24.240
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:31.600
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:46.399
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:55.600
00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:01.519
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:15.759
