Anyone know why the thread about the death of the young transman has been deleted

[Taytoface]

Horrific story about death due to surgical complications, was reading it and poof. Anyone know what happened. This is such important information to get out there.

What was your question?

To Exulansic held a memorial/ wake for her on Twitter yesterday apparently

It has various unintended consequences, one of which is that it dilutes and distorts the term 'far right' so that it becomes harder to actually discern the 'far right'.

People using the phrase to mean 'someone I hate' do the genuine work of countering fascism a huge disservice.

It's also grossly offensive to all those who have suffered at the hands of far right ideologues.

Plus, it's just fucking stupid.

I can’t believe the NHS offers this asa surgery. Where is the evidence for such invasive, dangerous, elective surgeries on healthy women?

Oh my goodness- Why is NHS funding what is basically a “cosmetic “surgery?

If People want to pay privately, then that’s on them.

There are de transitioners who bitterly regret having surgery.

It’s so risky.

Is this suggesting that Sivert couldn't afford life preserving surgery? I mean, couldn't afford the surgery to fix up complications from the previous surgeries that were becoming life threatening?
It's all so heartbreaking.

I'm another poster curious to know what this non-politics-relatedpolitical definition of "far right" is?
Actually I think it might help me understand what many people mean when they use the term.

Actually possibly you mean "alt right"?
That's like the cultural turn but for the right wing.

Yes. There was a time when if someone accused me of being a transphobe I'd stop in my tracks and look at what I'd said/ written and think well, am I? But now I don't even hear it, it's so stripped of any meaning. It's unlikely to be long before the shock value of being accused of being on the far right wears off and 'far right' loses all meaning.

And you can see here the NHS is basing the 'gender dysphoria pathway' on activist organisations like WPATH and Stonewall:

Good point.

If the pp could explain what they mean by 'far right' that would be genuinely helpful.

No, her post was more ‘look how much I’ve spent on surgery after surgery, to be who I need to be, and there’s even more than I can be bothered to list!’

The background music was along the lines of ‘people say I must be loaded because I keep buying all this luxury stuff! I’m not, I’m irresponsible!’.

Bless her, she was giving seriously mixed signals. ‘This is great kids, join me! Look how hard it is to be me! Look how hard we are prepared to work to be me! Yes it’s been complicated. it’s cost me a fortune and it still isn’t right. Do I regret it? No. Fuck you terfs!’

God. It’s tragic. I can only imagine, given that she lived with her grandmother, that her family will have a lot of fall out on top of the loss and grief. Poor kid.

Actually possibly you mean "alt right"?
That's like the cultural turn but for the right wing.

I wouldn't necessarily expect any sort of coherent logic to their use of the term other than "bad people".

Far Right and Far Left are two cheeks around the same bottom.

Both as extreme as each other.

You’re so right. But it feels disorienting when The us democrats are all for it, the greens (my natural home), labour etc all pushing it. Women’s Equality party (- should be my second home).

Peehaps if I change my name Keir will man up and start talking common sense 🤣.

OK, time for a new name chapter 🤣

Ah. But not in this thread apparently. Ok.

I suggested to the poster that they should define ‘far right’, of what constitutes ‘hate and bilge’ and what are the ‘usual sites’. But it has been crickets.

Interestingly, you criticise people using KF when you use Reddit.
Do you know about all the subs that are about incest and rape? And only a few years ago had a sub called jailbait, which was exactly what it sounds like. That's just scratching the surface of that cesspit.
Or is it only OK to go on certain websites when you do it? Guilt by association works both ways, no?

@Helleofabore

No one is critiquing your posts like academic essays, unless you are referring to posters pointing out your lack of ability to support your statements. And then, yes, many adults DO do this on a discussion forum. You stated you have been on MN for a long time, yet you seem to not really have a grasp on how it works. But that is unsurprising.

Goodness me. Imagine typing this out.

More daft sausage-ary.

Gosh... well... I cannot imagine typing out your posts either. So, I guess we are even.

Would you like to define ‘far right’, of what constitutes ‘hate and bilge’ and what are the ‘usual sites’ so that we can all have a discussion where we understand what you are referring to? While you are here and all. It relates to your very first post on thread, doesn't it?

And what do you think about the Griffin's horrific treatment by the clinicians that were supposed to help Griffin live their best life? Do you feel there is a major issue with the treatment that recommends phalloplasties to female patients?

This should the focus. Not more “right wing” nonsense. How was this allowed to happen to someone? A life ruined and this thread is full of sealioning.

@OldCrone

Right wing and left wing are political positions. What did you think they were?

These terms encompass more than just politics. They embrace an individual's set of beliefs about the world around them: their religion, their politics, ethics, hierarchical beliefs, resistance to change, thoughts on authority, tradition, etc. All combined contribute to where a person sits on the spectrum.

And you can divulge all that from a few posts on MN! Kudos!
