6. Joyce’s video on “gender ideology” spends a full three minutes, out of a 30 minute lecture, on Joyce’s disdain for trans aesthetics. She further calls on the audience to use “child gender medicine and sports” as “inroads” in order to eliminate trans rights at large.

3. If a CME activity does not adhere to ACCME’s standards, then the host institution could see their accreditation revoked. In Genspect’s case, the primary accredited party appears to be the Michigan State Medical Society (MSMS), which did not reply to requests for comment, nor did Genspect.

Completely AI-free and devoid of slop, I think we've managed to build a platform which very much *isn't* designed to keep you swiping and scrolling, but wants you to find something you actually want to watch as fast as possible.
Which I guess is the ultimate side benefit of being ad free.
