Elon Musk is creating Space x as a vehicle to ferry the elites to Venus, which is an unspoilt tropical paradise.
The elites only want us to beieve that it has a toxic environment of this phoney gas stuff so that we all don't try and build rockets to go there aswell.

Also another shocking observation.
On any given weekend later on you will see fleets of taxis full leaving town but coming back in 99.9% of them are EMPTY! Fleets of EMPTY taxis every single weekend making countless journies EMPTY just so they can maintain their place on a taxi rank.

Empty like his head and bed, the raving sociopath.
It was mentioned earlier (might have even been in the Peterson thread tbh) about the importance of communicating with people in these minority groups instead of just believing what some YouTube hack or talking head on Fox news says supposedly on their behalf.
So here's a post from the mother of a teenage trans girl, just so you have a glimpse into what some of these people have to deal with on a daily basis.

How old is the daughter ?
The fundamental issue with this scenario remains the same in that no doubt the daughter felt different to her peers prior to her transition yet that fundamental issue was never resolved even after gender reassignment.
"knowing she is hated by people just because of who she is."
That alone reads like your typical teenager in modern society particularly in the days of social media. Literally every goth/emo, nerd, ginger, fat, skinny kid felt that way during their teenage years.
No doubt the mother cares about her daughter and has done what she felt was "right" but letting her daughter make such a life changing decision at an age of immaturity is shameful/immoral and becoming all too common.
Here we go with the ill informed jumping to conclusions again.
Firstly, gender dysphoria is a massive issue for trans people, it's not just some switch that can be flipped and 'resolved'. Many battle with it throughout their lives. One thing is clear though, continuing to live as your original gender can seriously exacerbate the issue. It is literally impossible in most cases to deal with gender dysphoria and the associated conditions by continuing to live as your birth gender.
In the case of Emily here, her mother had to pull her out of school due to how intense the level of bullying she was receiving was. That bullying was also aimed at her school friends for merely associating with her, they all eventually stopped hanging around with her. So she was heading to school everyday, with no friends and being subjected to the most horrific bullying and from what I can tell her mental health was taking a severe nosedive as a result.
So what should a parent do in that situation?
Continue to send them to school into the constant bullying? Take them out of school and homeschool them (and all the associated issues that go with that, or force her to go back to another school as a boy, causing untold damage to her mental health?
The school, for the record, were of little help. This is a common theme amongst trans youngsters. It feels like the school purposely do as little as possible when it comes to the welfare of young trans people as it is easier to palm them off somewhere else than to take on the associated difficulties that can arise (changing rooms, toilets etc.)
The idea that you are comparing this to run of the mill school bullying is showing yet another level of your ignorance on this subject.
Growing up gay was difficult enough (I was a very confused young man) but from what I've seen, growing up as a young trans person is on another level.
Please take the time to actually learn about this stuff before throwing your opinion out there - it's making you look incredibly ignorant.

I would imagine this girl in question was being bullied / felt ostracised prior to her becoming trans (im not arguing that now being trans the level of bullying hasn't got worse).
The problem in society on this subject my friend is that transgender / gender fluidity etc is incorporated in the LGBT umbrella so any discussion on the matter is trivialised and "normalised" for want of a better phrase. The problem with that is in that umbrella you have those groups based on sexual preference and those based on gender identity and they're two completely different things.
With this sort of thing I compare it to having a weed in your garden in which your instant solution to the issue is to simply cut the grass every fortnight but all you're doing is removing the head of the weed - you aint dealing with the root cause of the problem hence why rates of suicide, suicide attempts and depression/anxiety are so high in the transgender community (in particular the younger trans who are still developing emotionally/mentally).
Until we as a society stop trivialising this subject more and more young boys and girls are going to struggle with themselves because we don't try understand the root cause of their struggles.
The far left think they're helping these people but they are not - look at that trans comedian whipping his tally wacker oot on live television - if I or you did that we'll have been banged up man ! Even a biological woman would have gotten in hot water for flashing her gash (especially if she had a northern accent) yet those in the media and certain groups of the Left find it "hilarious" "empowering" and have essentially tried to turn trans into some fetishism/circus and its morally wrong imo.
