Also, good to see you around here again! ♥️  Thx senpai I miss what Voat was like in 2016.  The reason I posted this is it's a refreshing callback to that vibe, instead of being a bunch of dogmatic social conservatives.  The same change happened to Kiwi Farms--I had lotsa posts in 2014, I come back in 2018 and Kiwi Farms has gone from "transtrenders and lolcows are not the same as normal trans people" to "Paul McHugh was right, you can totally Talk The Tranny Away!  Having them transition is the real cause of suicide.  Also, [quotes New Testament verse about how crossdressing is bad]." Funnily enough, I don't think Kiwi Farms had a massive migration from /pol/.  I wonder if instead seeing lolcows and dysfunctional and scumbag trans people and crossdressers over and over again made the Saxons begin to hate and go full Bible-thumper so that they now think Leelah Alcorn's parents did the right thing and TERFs are right to claim drag is "blackface" and oppresses wymyn.  In Altemeyer's The Authoritarians, people who saw rule-breakers having bad outcomes grew up to be High RWAs--high conventionalism ("we should bring back laws against crossdressing"), using bad logic like "fish live in the sea, sharks live in the sea, therefore sharks are fish," and most of all highly dogmatic (not single "they should Get Help(TM)" person on GenderCritical, Kiwi Farms or Voat has ever posted a single smidgen of evidence where the much-vaunted talking to a shrink ever did shit to treat dysphoria, but it's still repeated as if it's true, and all the studies showing transitioning reduces dysphoria and suicide rates are handwaved away).   The only study where non-transition cured dysphoria was the pimozide study with a sample size of one patient, and the "giving kids puberty-blockers is child abuse!  Leelah Alcorn's parents are good parents" crowd can't even be bothered to cite that.  AnOminous on Kiwi Farms made a highly-upvoted post about how Paul McHugh is a brilliant doctor (whereas all the pro-transition doctors from Moser to Dhejne are quacks who barbarically cut off genitals instead of Making The Delusional Trannies Get Help) who shut down the Johns Hopkins GRS program when a study showed it didn't work, but the Meyer study that McHugh cited doesn't even make that claim. It's not that I believe in virtue-signaling and being PC on an issue, but just because The Transsexual Empire and The Man Who Would Be Queen and Milo saying gender dysphoria is like anorexia (which doesn't alleviate no matter how much weight is lost) and body dysmorphia (which will refocus on another body part and doesn't alleviate) are politically incorrect--and is said in reference to a population with a high percentage of male-brain-with-dysphoria rapists like Cherno Biko--doesn't make it true.  And where the hell are the suicides and regretful detransitioners that should theoretically exist in Thailand, Brazil and the Philippines?
