More controversy over the puberty blocker trial Should articulating a belief that it's wrong to allow men to self-identify into female sport disqualify a scientist from oversight of the clinical trials of puberty blockers?

I've written about why the @mhragovuk.bsky.social decision to recuse its chief scientific officer Professor Jacob George from the puberty blocker trial is so troubling.

"It’s okay to be gay on campus, as long as you remember that you don’t really exist except to support the straight dude in the lipstick. If you ever forget, those knives will come out. This is called β€˜forced teaming’, and it is how abusers groom organizations to support their abuse."

The Declaration of Independence says we have the right to overthrow the government The right to overthrow a government remains an important principle to uphold, as it serves as a check on government power. It is a reminder that governments ...

The Declaration of Independence says that we not only have the right but we also have the duty to alter or abolish any government that does not secure our unalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

The problem isn’t that Australians are descended from convicts. They’re also descended from cops.

A 21-year-old Moroccan woman was beaten by her family when they found out she was a lesbian. She sought asylum in the US & Trump tried to deport her to Cameroon, where homosexuality is illegal.

Sometimes we get distracted by how incompetent our country has gotten, we forget how evil it has gotten.

Ok random online, of course I'm sure you're equipped to know all that science. πŸ™ƒ
Are you talking about Tavistock? What was going on there was disgraceful.
Look, if the science arises that it's fair and safe for trans women to compete against women I'll change my mind.

You think they allowed that policy just because "some man" wrote it? How about UK Sport from a few years ago? They tried to find a way to have inclusion for trans women that aligned with fairness and safety for women. After extensive research and consultation they realised it's one or the other.

If you torture someone continually and as it always does, it escalates, and your victim fight back, you have it coming. The law ought to reflect that. Every single person has the right to self defense.
