No I very much am contesting the central claim: “Lifesaving” is a perfectly reasonable way to describe a treatment that reduces depression, self-harm and suicidal ideation in a population with high rates of all three!

This thread, the responses, all of it. As he says in later replies, yes, this can be considered "life-saving." And it is ABSURD that progressives have the expectation of perfection in their arguments when conservatives can tell bald-faced lies with zero repercussions.
The "misinformation" in question here is that gender-affirming care reduces suicides among youth. It merely reduces depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal ideation.

JK Rowling explicitly calls on her followers to engage in vigilante actions against people they suspect are trans in bathrooms.

This is incredibly dangerous and far more likely to result in violence against gender nonconforming cis women.

Our new blog post untangles common research qualifiers: academic, applied, scientific, and rigorous. Great resource for researchers engaging with audiences outside the research industry.
