Yeah and I'm not saying that's true, it just seemed odd to me and begged the question of whether the care was less than what he might have gotten here.
But perhaps the damage was done a long time ago and this was always going to be the result.

He had end-organ damage.
So this implies his anus and/or rectum were damaged to the point that they could not heal properly on their own. Couldn't you shut down that area and give him a colostomy while it heals after surgery to repair the damage?

There are now 7 billion of our species, scattered on every continent. The species will be fine, if 5-10 percent do not reproduce.

No, it means other organs and systems were critically affected by the infection (e.g. kidneys, liver).

I was going to mention the placement of a child/children into situations like this, but that's an entirely new issue to be dealt with.
Regardless RIP

So you agree: homosexuality is unnatural.
First, I think it's a nonsensical caveat. It isn't meaningful because the 'natural' definition excludes anything pre-Bronze Age.
And I think homosexuality can fit neatly into early human population dynamics. I can imagine an autoimmune process akin to hemolytic anemia of the newborn (just given the suggestion that 2nd and 3rd sons and so on data) but this process wouldn't necessarily be selected against in human ancestor populations. The value of having able-bodied people who wouldn't sacrifice the fitness of the entire group, by virtue of adding to resource requirements (not reproducing) to already resource intensive work, would be a benefit in group fitness. That explanation also works for disease states which do not ultimately affect evolutionary fitness as well as for human aging patterns.
In short, human experience is varied. Invoking 'natural' arguments without reference to anthropology is a poor line of argumentation.

I'm guessing he meant "end-stage organ failure" but I 'm not sure, but that was one hell of a Freudian slip. It's sad the dude died, and Glenn is a good guy from what I've seen, but it's fine for us to bristle at the notion that he was actually a "husband" without needing the virtue signaling. I used to defend the homos back in the day when I thought they were being bullied, but now they're the bullies (as a group, not every individual), so any sympathy I had has been erased. If they could just do what they want at keep it to themselves, I'd have no beef. The encroachment into the "marriage" space and all the other stuff - this is what leads to worse, and that's why I oppose it.

Weirdest part about this is Greenwald flew down to Brazil at age 40 and shacked up with some 19 year old Brazilian favela pool boy the day he got there.

So by your own argument 5-10% aren’t normal. That cross section apparently didn’t evolve quite right. I have sympathy for birth defects too.

You can't separate the L&G from the T. They are explicitly linked. It was the LG that brought us the T. The slippery slope argument is undefeated, and the slope always slips.
The next generation will undoubtedly be saying "we just need to separate the T from the P, and all will be good"
I don't think this is accurate, but I'm open to learning the correct history. My recollection is that there was the 'pride' thing that was lesbian and gay communities coming together for that, and suddenly, the woke element just decided to expand it all and throw in all the other letters. I don't remember and LG saying "yes let's go recruit these other groups". Just my recollection.
I'm pretty sure that even Jordan Peterson has made it a point to state that there's no group out there like the trans group and especially their activists. They are on a whole new level of crazy, virulent, mean, and prone to violence.
I did not expect this thread to go in the direction it has gone.

Does seem to be an elitist move, the fact that he was 19 does speak more favorably than the politicians who currently trade on the under age slave market. That’s my compliment.

He had a really good friend who he lived with, and cared for adopted children with, but they were not married by definition, and were incable of procreating. Homosexuality is an unnatural act that goes against biological nature.

I have an Asian friend who works in the "human rights" world, and that world is largely dominated by blacks, especially women, in this part of the country. There's nothing wrong with that, but I kept warning her (and she's finally starting to see I was right) that they want her in the photos and in the head count, but they're not about to let her have any of the power or access to money.
tl;dr: Leftists suck.

First off, I know I'm a dick on here, but this answer is absolutely the 'cutest' answer to a medical question I've ever read. It made me laugh.
Secondly, since he was septic and likely in shock, his end-organs, organs that would be subject to the chain of events started by the initial insult, likely had severe damage. That initial infection may have been something like an intra-abdominal abscess or some other occult pathologic process. It's hard to know from what we've been told.

This is how sexual deviants operate.
And this is what they want us to celebrate, a 40 year old man putting his pecker in a 19 year old's arse.
Sick muffuggers...
