ID the actual problem. The REPUBLICAN party decent into fascism, either by action or defense and support. Its not Trump alone. It is an orchestrated in-group plan executed by souless, cruel people. People who actively, and gleefully support the plan. Please stop giving cover to the ground troops.

This question is weirdly hard, bc the starting place itself is a result of anti-trans propganda shaping the debate.
Trans surgeries, for all ages, are vastly rarer than hormone therapy only, which is itself rarer than social adjustments alone.
Youth trans surgeries are *incredibly* rare.

Genuinely curious: I thought that was the general guidance all along? Puberty blockers or hormone prescriptions for youth, but surgery later on?

I am curious at all if this paper cuts across race because listen.
Are female economists treated differently than males in academic seminars?
These authors wanted to know whether gender shapes how scholars are treated when presenting research.
So they built a massive dataset of 2,000+ economics seminars, job talks, and conference presentations from 2019–2023...

Jonathan Ross was a firearms trainer and led a team that included multiple federal agencies. All this training didn't stop him from shooting Renee Nicole Good. His training *facilitated* the shooting.
No amount of training will solve the problem that ICE is a violent ethnic cleansing squad.

Democrats are simultaneously beginning to refer to ICE and CBP agents as "poorly trained."
This message comes from leadership. They're trying to use it as a substitute for dismantling ICE and CBP and imprisoning their current employees. Don't fall for it; don't take any Dem seriously who uses it.
