Very upsetting that the Trump administration will assuredly use this pseudo scientific hate speech to further it's anti-trans agenda.

"the blatant harm done to children by chemical and surgical mutilation cloaks itself in medical necessity"

And yet they still won't acknowledge the harm done to intersex babies at birth without parental consent most times.. Or blatant lies to a parent to "correct" genitalia of babies to something "less ambiguous" in their eyes

Yes! Thank you for saying that! The hypocrisy here is astounding. I mean, how is gender-affirming care more suspect when unlike intersex ‘corrective’ surgery, the kid can actually give consent?!

Everyone involved in this “study” had the same opinion. How the hell can it be unbiased?!

It hasn’t even passed in the senate like WTF dude! How about we worry about the rampant diseases roaming around. Or healthcare costs. Or wage inequality. Or a hundred other pressing REAL issues!!

Hmmm… academic literature review studies don’t generally start with the conclusion and work to find and interpret studies in support of that conclusion.

Peer review does not accept only supporting comments as a rule.

This particular study would seem to be more useful in supporting political opinions than in improving science and medical practice.

when those morons complain about DEI and sh!t, they are going like “Muahhh, muahhh, how can this qualified minority get a job while I don’t” Me: Have you tried harder, I mean you always talk about pulling yourself by the bootstraps MAGA: But that is not meritocratic, that’s not merit, everything should be merit! Me: What merit do you have that makes you more qualified than doctors and scientists who have been doing their jobs for years, exactly? MAGA: We’re white and straight!

This pseudoscience coming from:

an admitted heroin addict of 14 years,

who once drove around with a dead bear in his car all day in N.Y.C. & dumped it in CPark

At one point was told by a doctor he had a tape worm eating his brain, not a tumor
