Doctors & drugs FOR LIFE: Big Pharma’s profit on the transgender craze
For trans people, the quest to create the body that matches their perceptions is a life devoted to drugs and doctors. For Big Pharma, the challenge is to serve the interests of this group without being blinded by big profit.
Western society is currently witnessing something of a medical revolution, which many have denounced as a dangerous experiment, whereby individuals, acting as their own medical experts, self-diagnose themselves as ‘transgender.’ What often follows is a regimen of powerful drugs and radical surgical techniques in order to ‘fix the gender’ they were mistakenly ‘assigned’ at birth.
Has mankind finally outsmarted Mother Nature?
While it is still too early to answer that question, one thing remains clear: members of the growing transgender demographic who opt to undergo ‘gender confirmation surgery’ inherit a lifetime relationship with the medical industrial complex. And, as is the case with most medical treatment in the United States, those services do not come cheap.
The elephant under the rug would seem to be what has cause autism to increase from 1/2500 to 1 in 64 in less than 4 decades? Could it be the toxic soup of chemicals we breathe, eat, and surround ourselves with every day?

Autism. In 1985 1 in 2500 children were diagnosed with autism; by 1992 it was 1 in 168; today it is 1 in 64.
Is the increase because of better understanding and diagnostic techniques, or has autism become a catchall disorder to require medical intervention via modern drugs?
If autism really has exploded globally, the drug therapies aren't working, unless the goal is to make their minds more malleable. Show me a kid that isn't confused about their place in the world, and I'll show you a normal child; the medical field will show you a child with a mental disorder requiring drug therapy....which seems to be resulting in gender dysphoria.

I'll say this proudly, every society that turns their back on God will fail 100% of the time. proven in history since the beginning of time.
This is extremely sad to read and knowing that this won't stop is heart breaking.
