Elon Musk prepared to ‘go to war’ with Apple over moderation demands

So your gripe is the access to puberty blockers. Parents and post pubescent teenagers seeking medical treatment is what you are equating to
"actively trying to trans kids and chemically castrate them and mutilate their bodies." It is a dishonest approach to discussing a topic. Why not simply say that you are concerned about use of puberty blockers? No wonder I couldn't find information when I searched based on what you were saying.

I do feel that some people when they hear stuff on media that concerns them (especially when they hear stuff from opinion show hosts) these people could easily quell their fears and actually could learn stuff by searching the internet and finding out what actually is happening.

It seems to me that no-one is being forced into being trans nor forced into gender reassignment treatments. It also seems to me that if there are side affects then I assume the parents and teenagers are being informed and hence making informed decisions.
In my view, people can make their own decisions. They don't need government, or "concerned citizens" to take their choices away.

I agree with you on the opinion shows. That's why I do a lot of research on this subject. So I know what I'm talking about. It sounds like you don't. It sounds like your ideas are coming directly from the media or leftist opinions who are trans activists and are not telling you the truth.

The majority of kids who identify as trans when they are younger desist when they are older. These puberty blockers have all kinds of very dangerous effects including chemically castrating the kids. Yes the trans activists are actively trying to trans the kids instead of letting things happen naturally where most stop. Instead they pump them full of castration drugs and then offer to chop off body parts to assist. Most places wait until the kid is 16, but the recommendation by trans activists is younger than that.

There are bills in states saying that if you don't affirm your kid who says they are trans then you can be punished and have your child taken away. The money these trans places make is enormous. They've been caught in tape saying so and giving that as a reason to do the surgery on kids. With so many desisting it is unconscionable to do this to kids when there is a good chance they will desist but it's too late cause they've already been castrated and had the surgeries. Schools are actively taking a kid who is confused about who they are and moving them to be trans by counseling them to be trans and affirming them as the opposite sex WITHOUT parental consent or knowledge.

My gripe is with all of it. And you should do some honest research into what is going on and not just believe what trans activists tell you. Are you aware for instance that suicidality is pretty much the same before and after transition?

These poor people are really in a hard mental place and struggling. I don't blame them at all for going through it. I do blame the trans activists who are pushing the kids to do this when it's so harmful to them and there is no way to go back once they decide to desist. And the suffering they go through when they realize they can't have kids, or breast feed them and their bone density has been damaged and the other effect that these drugs do to them.

Anyway nuff said. We are way off topic.

“Good conversation,” Musk tweeted. “Among other things, we resolved the misunderstanding about Twitter potentially being removed from the App Store. Tim was clear that Apple never considered doing so.

There is a huge amount of irony in talking about Apple and China when talking about Elon Musk. To quote Morgan Stanley analysts: "Tesla Motors is so dependent on the Chinese market, it should be treated as a Chinese tech company."

I want to make a pun about comparing apples to musk, but haven't had enough caffeine and the world is likely a better place without it.
