I don’t think I’ve ever met or heard of anyone literally claiming that kids are identifying as helicopters. The “I identify as an attack helicopter” thing was originally used as an absurdist critique of gender identity, not as a serious claim, if I remember correctly.
Edit: Also, there was a pretty good sci-fi short story that took the idea seriously.
Harrison says he’s seen photos online that purport to show children who have undergone these procedures. “When I saw them circulating on social media—and honestly, it’s hard to avoid them at this point—of these young, beautiful children post-surgery:
What the fuck??? He openly admitted to this? Hard to avoid? What??? So… is anyone investigating Texas state representative Brian Harrison for CSA? Because it appears they should be…
In his defense, it is legitimately hard to avoid if you search for “trans teen cumsluts” as much as he does.
I legitimately don’t know who these people think they are fooling by doing the internet equivalent of standing on the corner and yelling “I AM NOT ATTRACTED TO SEXY FEMBOY TWINKS” unsolicited at random passers by.
The thing is, if you view accounts from transphobes the “it’s hard to avoid” bit is not even an exaggeration. If you only follow them you can’t avoid it because it’s all they post. They post “teenage girls” (usually 18+ trans men) who have either just got out of surgery or have hypertrophic scarring (raised, sometimes discolored scars) so that the photos look as shocking as possible. They love posting pictures of trans men who haven’t been on testosterone as well, so they look as “girl like” as posible. Sometimes they post unhealed/unfinished phalloplasty photos and say they’re doing it to children. It’s just a firehose of disinformation and bigotry.
Maybe that’s the thing for me. There are no transphobes in my circles. People I know are either accepting/supportive or neutral (they take a “it’s their life” approach) of people whoever they are… and they post travel photos and family event photos on social media.
A person named Jamie Reed is saying that children are using words like “mushroom”, “rock”, and “helicopter” as pronouns. That’s not the same as claiming that children are identifying as those things.
According to wikipedia, noun-self pronouns have been in use since the 2010’s. I doubt that people using kitten/kittenself could be said to identify as kittens.
It’s part of her backstory, established roughly when she shows up. She went to robot jail for trying to steal quite a lot of money. You see - she wanted to be a fighter jet.

Well, they are claiming it. There is no end to the credulity of journalists who want to publish “both sides” stories about trans rights.

Not playing semantics here, people with he pronouns don’t ‘identify as hes’ either.

Crazy. At one point the United States had laws against promoting bad information.
Why the fuck did we get rid of those again? Are we stupid?
Guess who?
Oh it’s fucking Reagan again.
And arguably May from Questionable Content.
I haven’t read QC in a long time. What happened with May?
