Mermaids turning children into activists

If my child had a medical condition and we became involved with a charity related to that then there would not be the same assumption that my child and I would become an activist for the charity- doing work including contacting MP's, marching in demo's, signing petitions and approaching the school and demanding change, also in fundraising for the organisation.

Trans charities seem to require this of their children and not let them quietly get help and support. It is adults who benifit financially by weaponising children to be their voice.

Looking at the Tik Tok vidio's from Mermaids it struck me that a lot of the Trans movement involves weaponising the children who come for help and leading them by the nose towards political activism.

(Young person to class teacher) .."I found it really interesting, straight away when I asked you; you said I don't know why I want to be an activist, but then straight away you told me all these reason's why you did"......
You can be your own advocate

"Mango is a youth advocacy project, we have 38 young people who meet together online to talk about ways that they can amplify their voice and make positive social change...from meeting with schools up to a Parliamentary level to exact change"...
Mango a group of transadvocates aged 16-21

On the 12 days of X-mas Mermaids wants to see.. empowered trans communities, positive media stories, visible vocal allies, trans projects funded" etc...

This doesn’t surprise me at all. However, they very much seem a busted flush these days.

I think I noticed this very early on. And I think they rely on girls in particular. Making teenage girls the buttresses to become the face of the movement.

Now we get teens camping in front of government buildings and releasing crickets in LGB conferences. And finding male people like Baker and Wallace somehow involved in the background.

Spot on. This whole movement depends on weaponising children to uncritically parrot slogans and go into battle about sex change. Children in care were one of the first groups where extreme transactivists wrote "policies" for social workers, care homes and foster carers. Some of the most vulnerable children and young people in the country, all alienated from their parents and families - sitting ducks, all of them.

Why do you think that schools were (and still are) so relentlessly targeted with the trans captured DfE openly funding and promoting Mermaids, Stonewall etc to schools. I remember finding Mermaids when looking to support the first child I'd come across in a school wanting to "change sex". The DfE signposted Mermaids who advised he must be able to use the girls changing rooms etc and recommended a celebratory assembly to introduce them in their "new sex". That alone raised so many red flags we decided to ignore all their "advice".

Adults in Mermaids (and remember their porn / paedophile staff scandals) didn't offer neutral support for mentally vulnerable children As you say, they've weaponised them to support their own niche political activism.

Yet still nobody's shut them down and still useful idiots fund them.

Is the safeguarding investigation into them ever going to conclude?

I believe the Charity Commission ignored the safeguarding scandal? Not sure whether the police were ever involved in investigating concerns?
