James Evans because new studies and statistics are coming out of the effects and the cities locked down the worst were worse off in every category. Sooo now that the science is changing and in the direction against our disastrous leadership pushed us. Remember when the orange man headed up the vaccine drive, you know spear headed it. Accomplished it and dems hated him for it. Then they took over andddddd.... woopsy. And then remember when the deaths outweighed the deaths from the first year. And then remember 2 weeks to slow the spread has now turned into.... I'm trying to help you out here bud. But keep trusting fauci and get your 8th booster. Lolol.

The current homophobic and transphobic atmosphere is particularly taking a toll on queer and trans youth, starkly above and beyond the general public youth self harm rates.

This is The Trevor Project’s 2021 National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health.️‍⚧️

42% of LGBTQ youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, including more than half of transgender and nonbinary youth.

LGBTQ youth who had access to spaces that affirmed their sexual orientation and gender identity reported lower rates of attempting suicide.

More than 80% of LGBTQ youth stated that COVID-19 made their living situation more stressful — and only 1 in 3 LGBTQ youth found their home to be LGBTQ-affirming.

13% of LGBTQ youth reported being subjected to conversion therapy [largely religiously driven in the US with the help of unethical psychologists], with 83% reporting it occurred when they were under age 18.

48% of LGBTQ youth reported they wanted counseling from a mental health professional but were unable to receive it in the past year.

Transgender and nonbinary youth who reported having pronouns respected by all of the people they lived with attempted suicide at half the rate of those who did not have their pronouns respected by anyone with whom they lived.

Transgender and nonbinary youth who were able to change their name and/or gender marker on legal documents, such as driver’s licenses and birth certificates, reported lower rates of attempting suicide.

94% of LGBTQ youth reported that recent politics negatively impacted their mental health.
