So can someone explain this to me? Because I understand the explanation that the experiments were with transgenic mice, and obviously Trump is dumb enough to not know the difference, but then they've got this explanation on whitehouse.gov:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/yes-biden-spent-millions-on-transgender-animal-experiments/
I have to swallow down my vomit after reading an official government website use the phrase "fake news losers", but then it seems to be quoting actual studies and includes things like:
and
Those sound like perfectly valid and worthwhile experiments to me, but they do technically involve mice being given gender-affirming hormones, or as an idiot would say, "transgender mice".
I just want to be accurate with my criticisms, and I'm not sure the transgenic = transgender explanation is enough.
Gender affirming care isn't just trans.
Remember when Angelina Jolie got her precancerous boobs whacked off to prevent cancer, then new cancer free ones installed? That back part was GAC.
Viagra, steroids, laser hair removal, gynecomastia removal, testicular implants, hell, even most HRT goes to cis people. All GAC. A long wig for a female cancer patient. Reconstruction surgery for a guy who gets his junk mauled by a pitbull.
Most puberty blockers go to cis children too btw, and have for decades.
...specifically ones with precocious puberty, because hitting puberty at say 4 can have some lifelong detrimental effects.
I believe it, as someone who hit puberty at all.
