N.Y. Attorney General Orders Hospital to Resume Youth Transgender Care

NYU Langone Health had stopped providing puberty-blocking medication and hormone treatments after the federal government threatened to pull its funding.

N.Y. Attorney General Orders Hospital to Resume Youth Transgender Care NYU Langone Health had stopped providing puberty-blocking medication and hormone treatments after the federal government threatened to pull its funding.

The New York attorney general is finally taking the first steps to hold NYU Langone accountable for their horrific decision to end trans care for minors.

Note that California AG Bonta has not sued any hospitals under discrimination laws this way (only one lawsuit under M&A law).

I’m going to go watch anime now, that feels like a better use of my time. Goodbye.

I’m not fucking doing this debate bro nonsense on semantics over exact framing. You’re not Diogenes, you’re just an annoying pedant, and I’m bored.

This is intellectually dishonest and you know it,

I don’t think you want to have an actual conversation if this is your response.

Because one had influence on the other. It’s not justification, that’s not what I said, but a discussion of impact. I think it’s more important to discuss Israel-Palestine through the relevant nationalities than their faiths.

I’m just saying that if we are going to compare two events, we can’t leave out anything else relevant, that purposefully restricts the conversation where nothing else can be included. I think the violence towards Palestinians post-1948 is MORE relevant than the Holocaust to October 7, that’s all.

Where did I say that? I don’t think I ever said that?

03.03.2026 03:27 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes but it IS entirely relevant to the discussion and shouldn’t be excluded.

I didn’t say it was, I was quoting someone

Everyone else here seems to agree with me that it’s improper framing so…guess it was unclear to a lot of people.

I would if the implication was that bigoted mass shootings comparatively happened nowhere else, or ignored the trend of mass shootings based around minority identity that have happened as of late, those are important details and context!

The qualifier purposefully rejects any other events though? It’s a false equivalence.

Okay but even then you see how the original person comparing October 7 to the Holocaust ALSO doesn’t fit that comparability scale either, right? Nor would it be fair to ignore the context in between any two events even if they WERE comparable in magnitude (like Pearl Harbor and 9/11)?

Was on a sketchy website and got a pop up that sent me to Google. And like I’m sure it was some kind of scam/phishing version of it, I didn’t investigate, but I like the idea someone is taking out pop up ads in order to advertise the concept of learning new things.

A recent statement from the American Society for Plastic Surgeons advised against surgery, HRT, blockers for trans youth.

Now members and experts that were sidelined at the org are demanding answers after evidence shows it may have been politically influenced by the Trump admin.
