My mom had a serious gambling problem. Was that her fault or could she blame someone else? Before you answer this, I must forewarn you that she is a pale face. Also, my family is plagued with drug/alcohol abuse on both sides. My brother did a lot of time behind bars. Who do I get to blame for this? I used to blame my brother for his actions. Maybe it's not his fault? Oh yes, I must be stupid. He's a white guy so he needs to be accountable of his own actions without a scapegoat. Not everything is someone else's fault. Take accountability for your actions and quit blaming others for your mistakes. I know some people have it harder than others (from personal experience) but quit finding excuses for them when they choose poorly (Indiana Jones). It's not working. Really, the lottery is racist? Edit: Systemic. How long has President Biden been a part of the system? What about Pelosi? Dems shouldn't get a free pass. Afterall, it's the system's fault and there are a whole lot of dems who have been part of that same system for quite some time. Too much hypocrisy in our world. It gets old hearing about how hard everyone else has it. I remember plenty of brown kids making fun of my Jordache (extra cheap) shoes in the 80s. They seemed to have better shoes and clothes than me. Dude it’s 2022, everything is Racist. Highways, elections, SATs, pilot training.…you’re even a racist just for posting this!

Your brother may indeed have made poor life choices. At the same time, the society we live in may not be providing adequate support. For instance, is it possible that your brother’s issues are, at least in part, a result of mental health issues? Are we getting people the help they need? Should we hold individuals responsible for the choices they make? Absolutely! Should we also strive to provide them the tools to turn their lives around? Also yes. I agree with your statement about two things being true at one time. I'm just a little tired of hearing how everyone else had it so much worse because they were darker than me. I know racism still exist as I've been callled racial slurs and have heard brown people remind me that "Hey white boy, you're in the wrong neighborhood". I've also heard other whites say racially offensive things. I'm 100% positive that we're the only race that does that (sarcasm). But JFC we aren't living in the Confederate Sates of America last time I checked? Finding a solution to helping people doesn't start with telling them it's not their fault. My brother went through a lot as a kid. I wish that he could have gotten help sooner but I'm not giving him a free pass. He knew what he was doing. The good thing about my brother is that he'll tell you himself that he was a fuck up. As much as I despised him for what he put my parents through I still respect him for owning up to his wrong doings. I want them (America's helpless) to know that they (politicians) are telling you it's not your fault to continue keeping you down. They (politicians) don't really care about your struggle. They care about you figuring out that you're not a victim. Edited November 11, 20223 yr by Biff_T More rambling
November 11, 20223 yr https://www.foxnews.com/media/detransitioned-teen-hold-gender-affirming-surgeons-accountable Back to more woke fun. I know this is another foxnews.com article but I'm pretty sure this will happen again and maybe another news source will spread this "hate speech". Are your telling me that this 12 yo wasn't mature enough to make a decision to remove her breasts and take hormone blockers? Come on man.

But it doesn’t matter, this woke conversation only goes one way, we all know that. Which is fine, didn’t give a shit till it started to infect the military.

She should be holding her parents accountable, and, assuming she had one, her psychiatrist. I’d say both of those parties are far more culpable than the guy holding the scalpel.

The problem is the same one that has plagued liberals for a long time. Creating a system sufficiently generous and sufficiently staffed to fulfill that goal, while simultaneously weeding out the small percentage who will bankrupt any such system through abuse, is not feasible. If liberals would accept sub-single digit percentages of deserving people falling through the cracks, we would already have these systems and they would be perfectly manageable from a financial aspect. However, the very same sentiment that makes liberals want such system leads them to reject any notion that the system would miss some eligible participants and there would be no recourse. Limiting principals and second-order effects, the eternal weaknesses of liberal policy.

Likely would have been a lawsuit if the surgeon tried to decline the surgery.

The trans activists are much more active than the amputee activists. https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2020/07/9923894/jesse-hammons-maryland-hospital-transgender-hysterectomy-lawsuit

They can make you do mental evaluations prior to amputation. My neighbor has been trying to have both of his lower legs (below the knee) removed due to pain from severe nerve damage. He said they're pretty much useless and he'd rather use prosthetics than deal with the pain. He still has his legs. Disclaimer: This my opinion. I'm by no means a Dr but I've looked at his legs (with and without permission lol) and they are not pretty. Edited November 13, 20223 yr by Biff_T Not Exec

November 25, 20223 yr https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/gay-club-owner-shooting-amid-new-type-hate-93928895 This article says a lot about LGTBQ hate but doesn't say much about the suspect being part of that community. I'm not a doctor or a "scientist" but maybe being confused about your sex is a mental condition? The party of "science" appears to use feelings more then science when it comes to this. The few transgender people I've known have all had some sort of mental problems. Please stop feeding people this bullshit of "feelings are science". It's ruinining people's lives. Pedophiles "feel" like banging kids. Should we stop punishing them? Afterall, they were "born this way".
