Texas highways targeted by antiabortion activists seeking to block interstate travel
A new ordinance, passed in several jurisdictions and under consideration elsewhere, aims to stop people from using local roads to drive someone out of state for an abortion
I am fairly sure one of the things they're attempting to do is forcefully detransition trans people. They absolutely do already have lists of kids that have sought some sort of medical care for gender dysphoria, or can create them.
In that case, maybe.
Its possible. But I've seen the back end of the state bureaucracy on a number of occasions. They're more on the Mussolini end of the fascist spectrum in execution.
Vicious but more so lazy and cheap.
Particularly in CPS, the organization is nearly non-existent. A ton of this is running on the handful of people hateful enough to chase their neighbors for free.
A list of trans kids doesn't have to be an actual list of trans kids for the terror to work. The mere threat of such a list would be enough. The actual list could just as well be a list of kids reported by nosy neighbours or fascist teachers for "being at risk of being trans", ie. not performing their gender as they're expected to.
Yeah when it comes to terrorising parents you're absolutely right. You're essentially leaving a lot of parents with a decision about risk, the risk of child suicide over their dysphoria vs the risk of the state involving themselves and potentially taking your child for "abuse".
The sinister thing about calling it child abuse is that I can absolutely see that would seep into popular consciousness over time and normalisation of the law.
