Blog Mirror: Hageman Says Gender Affirming Treatements are Sexual Labotomies.

 A recent Cowboy State Daily article on a comment by Harriet Hageman:

Hageman Says Gender-Affirming Treatments Are Sexual Lobotomies | Your Wyoming News Source (cowboystatedaily.com)

I find myself cringing when I agree with something Hageman says, as she has so far been a real Trumpite and came into her position by turning on her old political friend, Liz Cheney.  Cheney was absolutely correct, and stood for the law, on the issue of Trump and his subversion of democracy.

Hageman's comparison here, however, is quite correct.

This shows the extent to which issues like this really serve as red meat for the populist right.  The left stands in wonder on how so many in the country suddenly seem willing to force their views on society even if it means trampling democracy.  Having used the courts to trample democracy for decades, and coming to the point where, in their minds, mutilation of children in the name of transgenderism, something that may very well not even exists, helps explain how we got to the scary point we are now at.
