The left thinks if they toss the word 'justice' into an argument, they automatically hold the morally absolute position. However, as obnoxious as this can be, it's use in this context is simply obscene. 'Kids have a moral right to change their bodies,' is what 'justice' means to these lunatics.

The argument is simple. Medical transition is so difficult, dangerous and painful because trans children are forced to go through puberty which permanently changes their body in a way they don't want. These changes have to be undone with hormones and surgery later in life. If we just stop puberty, we can introduce opposite sex hormones earlier and transition will be easier.
The author even shared a desperate plea from a friend seeking 'revision surgery,' for severe complications from their gender surgery as evidence of this.

This is what the author refers to as 'justice.'
It's an opposite-day way of thinking, which relies on the assumption that medical intervention is necessary to correct gender in children. Adults only suffer because they were unjustly denied the medical care they desperately needed as kids.
However, the opposite is true, as is typically the case. Transition medical interventions are dangerous, painful and frequently have severe complications because they are attempts at forcing the body to be what it is not. The body constantly tries to recover, requiring more artificial hormones, efforts to keep new 'openings' from closing and other tissue-related rejections and complications.
According to the American College of Cardiology, 'People with gender dysphoria taking hormone replacements as part of gender affirmation therapy face a substantially increased risk of serious cardiac events, including stroke, heart attack and pulmonary embolism, according to a study presented at the American College of Cardiology's Annual Scientific Session Together With the World Congress of Cardiology.'
The medical 'treatment,' isn't correcting a malfunctioning system. It turns a perfectly healthy, functioning system into a malfunctioning one.
The only possibly positive outcome is reported improvements in psychological self-perception.
There is nothing actually wrong with the child. No legitimate reason to artificially interfere with their natural physical development. They quite literally disfigure and disable a healthy body to try and appease a troubled mind.
You can’t change your sex anymore than you can change your species or your blood type.🤷🏻♂️

You can’t change your sex anymore than you can change your species or your blood type.
Just like progressives once believed in the scientific basis of phrenology, anti-miscegenation/eugenics, lobotomies, the Tuskegee syphilis experiment (run by the USG & HBCU), and the efficacy/safety of thalidomide, you are enabling rather than treating mentally ill kids.
In your universe, if a anorexic girl believes herself to be 300 pounds she would be given diet pills and gastric bypass surgery instead of being taught to love herself.
People like you are why we have the 41% .
Transgender progressives are desperate to prove they made the right decision, so they try to validate themselves through the experience of children.
They cling to a fantasy childhood they never had and imagine they are saving other children like themselves from that pain.
But all they are doing is creating more suffering.
Immediate disqualification for this:

Immediate disqualification for this:
"But if children are too young to consent to puberty blockers, then they are definitely too young to consent to puberty."
We don't "consent" to any natural biological function, it just happens. This is like saying kids don't consent to smell, taste, or see. It's a completely irrational way of viewing the human body.
Trans progressives are not only at war with their own bodies, but with nature itself. They view healthy human development as hostile and malicious.
The 'injustice,' is human biology itself. The very thing the author is convinced he can overcome with pure will.
There is nothing wrong with a kid who doesn't fit into strict gender stereotypes. There is nothing to fix or correct or change. Every child struggles through puberty and everyone wants a body they don't have. But most people get the opportunity to grow and develop who they are regardless.
Taking this choice away from children is injustice. It is cruel. It must be abolished.
Kids should be told the truth about their own biology and the inability to change sexes.

If a kid believes he/she is Spiderman, you buy them a costume. You don't throw them off a building hoping they'll shoot webs from their hands. https://t.co/nnSvIIOWqR
Kids are stupid and it's important to remind kids they are stupid. Not indulge in whatever fantastical ideas they have about their bodies.

No one is born in the wrong body. There is no Ghost of Gender Future that supernaturally switches the souls of children at night. Human beings cannot change sex.
No matter how badly the left wants to play God, they can never succeed. Children are the most vulnerable to their arrogance and obstinance.
