No there is no evidence, there was one flawed study of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria. That had so many holes they had to issue corrections and admissions that it was just a hypothesis. ROGD, this term has no clinical validation ROGD is currently not a formal mental health diagnosis The study consists of observations from parents, which only creates a hypothesis. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/what-is-rapid-onset-gender-dysphoria There is evidence to the contrary and plenty of it.

How gun violence is reshaping American lives
Bkk Brian replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Of course but the gun nuts would rather blame just about anything else than the availability of so many killing machines. -

That link is for encounters not just crossings Encounters encompass two distinct kinds of events: apprehensions, in which migrants are taken into custody in the United States – at least temporarily – to await adjudication, and expulsions, in which migrants are immediately expelled to their home country or last country of transit without being held in U.S. custody.

Considering Twitter under Musk is now obliging with authoritarian governments to censor on their requests now more than ever before? No wonder there is a threat to democracies. Twitter approved 83% percent of censorship requests under Musk Despite Musk presenting himself as a free speech advocate, who almost immediately fired content moderation staff, Twitter satisfied the majority of requests for content restriction coming from countries like Turkey and India that are frequently accused of limiting freedom of speech. If prior to the purchase of the platform by the American billionaire, Twitter agreed to 50 percent of such requests, in the last six months, this number has risen to 83 percent, according to the analysis of the data by the technology information portal Rest of World. https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/technology-science/1685011820-twitter-approved-83-percent-of-censorship-requests-under-musk

Well like the Accelerated Christian Education (ACE) curriculum you can claim to disprove Evolution by citing the Lochness Monster in Scotland. ACE made headlines last year for a science textbook that cites the existence of the Loch Ness monster as evidence against evolution. Those who are more educated follow the science: EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION https://necsi.edu/evidence-for-evolution Evidence for evolution https://www.uc.edu/content/dam/refresh/cont-ed-62/olli/s21/kahn-evidence-of-evolution.pdf I'm sure the scientists who excavated tiktaalik will be crushed to learn that their discovery doesn't, in fact, exist. But even without fossils, evolution is thoroughly supported by DNA and a wealth of other evidence.

Just one of its bizarre beliefs aside from using the Loch Ness monster as evidence against evolution: 1) God is a right-winger. "Liberals" are the root of all political evil. God's values are rightwing, and anything else is a rejection of His will. On a politics chart, "right" is associated with "absolute" and "God", while "left" is connected to "no values" and "atheism." The term "leftwing", we learn, exists because "left" means "sinister", "to twist something", or "to corrupt." Jesus, by contrast, taught that "we should use what we have to earn a profit." If your political views lean left, you are neither a true Christian, nor a good citizen. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2013/feb/01/nessie-accelerated-christian-education-curriculum

Its correct, deaths have been decreasing. "Quite simply, we are better than ever before at saving lives,” “More lives are being saved thanks to early warning systems" But the economic costs are increasing and the extreme weather events are also increasing. Famine and extreme hunger has more than doubled in the 10 most climate hotspots. We can't reply on early warnings forever. Weather-related disasters increase over past 50 years, causing more damage but fewer deaths The number of disasters has increased by a factor of five over the 50-year period, driven by climate change, more extreme weather and improved reporting. But, thanks to improved early warnings and disaster management, the number of deaths decreased almost three-fold. Economic losses have increased sevenfold https://public.wmo.int/en/media/press-release/weather-related-disasters-increase-over-past-50-years-causing-more-damage-fewer Extreme hunger has more than doubled in 10 of the world’s worst climate hotspots over past six years Climate-fueled hunger is a stark demonstration of global inequality. Countries that are least responsible for the climate crisis are suffering most from its impact and are also the least resourced to cope with it. Collectively responsible for just 0.13 per cent of global carbon emissions, the 10 climate hotspots sit in the bottom third of countries least ready for climate change. https://www.oxfamamerica.org/press/extreme-hunger-has-more-than-doubled-in-10-of-the-worlds-worst-climate-hotspots-over-past-six-years/

Exactly. They believe yet have no evidence or facts to back up those beliefs. Back to my first post. -

What do you think? lol Millions of those same people also believe in the principle beliefs of QAnon. Note "believe" no facts or evidence to back them up. -
'Truth is sacred', Tom Hanks tells Harvard graduates
Bkk Brian replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
There is no evidence to back up any claims that Covid was not true. That's a futile example. Take Tom Hanks point: "telling the truth is no longer the benchmark for public service" Example Trump still maintains he was robbed of the election through fraud, voting machines etc. Yet after over 60 court cases found virtually none, he still claims this. Its a fact based on the evidence he lost. Despite his ongoing lies. -

Hence why I said, evidence/facts. If evidence is provided then that is a fact.
