We were here when medical science lost its mind
By: Michael Brown
We are living in a truly messed up world. The secular progressive dream come true on so many levels. So twisted, evil, and ridiculous that society may not survive it unless we resist it at every level.
One day, when sanity returns to the world, we will be able to tell a future generation, “We were here when science lost touch with reality. We were here when the medical profession lost its mind. We were here when feelings displaced biology.”
Yes, we will get to tell the shocking story unless, of course, our society completely falls apart and self-destructs. Otherwise, we will get to bear witness to these days of societal madness and insanity.
Not that long ago, there was a time in our history when lobotomies were considered “miracle cures” for mental illness.
As explained in a 2011 BBC report , “Surgeons would drill a pair of holes into the skull, either at the side or top, and push a sharp instrument — a leucotome — into the brain. “The surgeon would sweep this from side to side, to cut the connections between the frontal lobes and the rest of the brain.”
Indeed, “These spikes once represented the leading edge of psychiatric science. They were the operative tools in lobotomy, also known as leucotomy, an operation which was seen as a miracle cure for a range of mental illnesses.”
How do we view this barbaric procedure today?
Another website lists , “9 Terrifying Medical Treatments from 1900 and Their Safer Modern Versions.”
First on the list was “Radium Water,” with this explanation: “Before radioactivity was fully understood, naturally occurring radium was lauded for its seemingly otherworldly benefits. Water was kept in radium-laced buckets, and people would drink the tainted liquid to cure everything from arthritis to impotence. Of course, this was an awful idea, and when people started to drop dead from this miracle water, the connection was made. Now, non-radioactive prescription drugs are used to combat arthritis and impotence.”
Today, however, we have taken things even further. Not only are we giving perfectly healthy 18-year-old girls full mastectomies. Not only are we putting pre-pubescent children on potentially dangerous hormone blockers, based entirely on how they feel about themselves. But we are also trashing biological realities in the name of ideology.
Perception now trumps biological sex. Feelings trump science.
As WebMD tweeted on July 30, “Sex should be removed as a legal designation on the public part of birth certificates, the American Medical Association (AMA) said Monday.”
The tweet was linked to an article on the WebMD website, which stated that, “Requiring it [meaning, one’s sex] can lead to discrimination and unnecessary burden on individuals whose current gender identity does not align with their designation at birth, namely when they register for school or sports, adopt, get married, or request personal records.”
In other words, when it comes to biological realities, we should kiss them goodbye — that is, if those realities contradict how you feel about yourself.
In fact, we should just kiss those realities goodbye in general, since, after all, the whole gender binary is oppressive.
That explains headlines like this , from the New York Post , July 31: “Harvard lecturer blasted by colleague for defending existence of biological sex.”
As reported by Fox, “Harvard lecturer Carole Hooven took heat from her own colleague after an appearance on Fox News this week in which she asserted that biological sex is real and defended the continued use of terms like ‘pregnant women’ and ‘male and female.’
“The ideology seems to be that biology really isn’t as important as how somebody feels about themselves, or feels their sex to be,’ Hooven told ‘Fox & Friends’ Wednesday [July 28]. ‘The facts are that there are in fact two sexes — there are male and female — and those sexes are designated by the kind of gametes we produce.”
So much for scientific facts.
Today, we know better. Today, we know that men can menstruate and conceive, carry, and deliver babies too. We also know that women can have penises.
We also know that anyone, like author J. K. Rowling, who would insist that only women can menstruate, is a hateful, small-minded, bigot.
We also know that well-researched, compassionately-written books like Ryan Anderson’s When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment , should be banned from Amazon. What dangerous ideas Anderson is espousing! How dare he argue that biology is not bigotry. Oh, the shame!
Yes, my friends, God helping us, the day will come when we will tell a future generation about this madness, about this day in which those who with the nerve and commitment to challenge this ideological insanity were marginalized and punished. And hopefully, by that time, we will have learned how to help trans-sufferers find wholeness from the inside out.
For now, we have to ride out the storm, keep our courage, bless those who curse us, and preserve our own sanity.
Stay the course, my friend.
* No sooner did I finish writing this article than I spotted this headline : “Olympic advisor on trans athletes says history may judge it 'less than ideal' that transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard is allowed to compete at Tokyo 2020.” Yes, “less than ideal,” to say the least. History will judge, indeed.

There is a bucket of horse manure, and there is this article with its introductory comment and comments 1, 1.1 and 1.1.1. Which has more value?
The answer is actually easy. At least you can use the horse manure to fertilize the garden.
The cdc just admitted on CNN that the vaccine is no longer preventing transmission.
Israel said that a few days ago.
The experiment failed. But they still pushing the jab. LOL
I trust my bodies capability to provide long lasting natural immunity more than I will ever trust science.
For those wondering. I had covid. Extremely tired for 4 days. No big deal. For me h1n1 was much worse.
NO the CDC did NOT say that. That is simply willful anti-vaxer disinformation.
Yes they did say that on CNN so feel free to attack the source. LOL
"But what they can't do anymore is prevent transmission."
Your funny
Vaccinated people still catch and spread the virus. #VaccineFail
Yes, that is already known. The vaccine is not 100% effective. It's called "breakthrough infections," and they occur at a relatively low rate. Or did you think otherwise?
Early evidence led by the Israelis in March and April indicated an increased protection against transmission.
That has since dropped to 50% by the Israelis.
That's not a failed experiment.
The more effective a vaccine is, the less hospitalization and death.
Blocking transmission isn't even a pipe dream until 95% of everyone on the planet is vaccinated.
Don't bloviate on things you don't understand.
Go fishing, you will probably live longer.
Glad to see you survived unscathed,
sorry to see 615,000 fellow citizens did not.
Since H1N1 is related, that may well have saved your life.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger?
The drug was designed to keep people from catching and spreading covid. Period.
It does neither = FAIL
I have had the vaccines and did not catch the disease = WIN. Same with the wife and both entire families = WIN.
Both RNA drugs are experimental and rushed to the public without lengthy trials, we are the final test.
In Fact none of the vaccines are actually approved by the FDA yet and some may never get there.
All vaccines are designed to artificially stimulate our bodies develop immunity to the virus that causes the illness without us having to get the illness. We are using multiple vaccines that use different mechanisms to achieve that outcome.
Given the choice between take your chances on your own or a vaccine that's pretty good, I'm taking the vaccine until they produce something better.
That is cherry-picking. The statement was that IF a vaccinated person is infected (known as a 'breakthrough infection') THEN they are as infectious as an unvaccinated person. The rest of the story is that the vaccines are highly effective at preventing people from getting infected.
In short, yes, get vaccinated to mitigate contributing to the spread of COVID-19 and its variants such as Delta.
I am curious, why do you put forth comments that would encourage others to not get vaccinated? To what end?
Intentional dishonesty.
To what useful end?
There is none. I can find no use for spreading misinformation or dishonesty.
“We were here when conservatism lost touch with reality. We were here when some conservatives' lost their mooring. We were here when critical thinking failed to repair the conservative breach.”
Said everyone who has ever been born at one point or another.
Can you list these things you obviously disagree with?
Are you the poster child for the boy who cried Wolf?
There is always give and take along our march to improve humanity.
Try not to be on the side that fades into obscurity.
No the CDC did NOT say that. That is simply willful disinformation.
Oops don't know how the double post happened.
It's still worthy of a "thumbs up" no matter how many times you repeat it!
