More than one million Europeans have called on the EU to ban “conversion”’ practices targeting LGBTQ people, the results of a petition showed Friday. Story by August Hakansson.
Keep up the momentum and sign for Stop Killing Games. Did you know that you can watch the European commission stream? Put some eyeballs on these initiatives when they’re in session. Make the politicians aware that the people are watching!

That’s an awful summary.
This is a citizen initiative - it forces the European commission to propose legislature.
Fun fact: EU commission also has a Mastodon account, so if you use software that supports following users (Like mbin) you can follow them directly from here — @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu
I voted.
But we still have those in Europe?
Yes.
Dark blue is fully banned, light only for medical personal and yellow is ban in the works.
Also important to note, though, that something not being outright banned doesn’t mean there’s a particular problem with it as legislation is often reactive. Not to say I don’t find a potential ban great, but the lack of legislation, at least in some countries, probably just means that it doesn’t happen and there thus has been no use for an actively prohibitive law
What is a “conversion” , ? Those treatments where the medics get their pockets full of money and the patient gets mutilated and in several cases with heavy health issues even regretting the procedure?
It is a process to turn an LGBTQ+ person into a cis men or women. Being LGBTQ+ is not an illness so any sort of procedure is unnecessary. With some of the stuff they do, like brain surgery it also has some massive potential site effects. Obviously some people make a lot of money with it too.
Calling them medics is way to kind.
Slight correction: it’s not about cis or trans, but rather about homosexuals being brainwashed into being heterosexuals.
Oh they try it on trans people too, to similar (horrific) effect.
