| Message | We must say with entire honesty that we are not sure what the Revolutionary Students' Front believe they will gain from this. Firstly, we see some of these policies which are worthwhile. Such as four and three, but the rest are simply idiotic. For example - Funding for gender reassignment surgery, in Yæti society we have a conception similar to the modern image of transgender individuals. People born in male or female bodies who have a soul opposite to their flesh, but we also have to recognize that in modernity transgenderism has been hijacked by people who do not have this disagreement between their souls and flesh. They transition not for their mental health and happiness, to express who they are deep down, but instead to attract straight men or lesbian women. If not other lustful, disgusting wants. There by we stand by STRONGLY regulation of gender reassignment and hormone replacement therapy - Without it, even if some people have to wait a short period to get the treatment they need, it will stop people who either have evil goals or are confused. As to the article on Worker Democracy, while we see value in co-operatives. We can't stand by getting rid of hierarchical businesses, as they can be efficient and good if done right. As well, education should not be refusable. Yes, education needs reform. But absolutely not educating your child is simply negelectful in a modern world. |
