It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.
My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?
Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...

Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge.
As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do.
They can't keep spewing carbon.
They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying.
They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

I'm pleased that the Netflix series Adolescence is prompting so much public discussion of this issue, but disappointed so much is simplistic 'ban smartphones' takes. This from Emily Writes was a refreshing change

RNZ's descent into madness continues.
Jesse Mulligan on RNZ afternoons, talked to a person from the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C. My ears pricked up when she said humans are made to be in family groups. The EPCC is a RW Judeo-Christian think tank. None of this bias was mentioned in the interview. #nzpol

We’ve been taught to believe that the menace to society was the fraternity alpha male. It isn’t. Society is being subjected to the sociopathy of a bunch of tech CEOs who, in my view, did not get laid enough as young men.

Republican congressman Keith Self introduced transgender Representative Sarah McBride as "Mr. McBride."
Sarah snapped back and called him madam chair.
Dem Congressman Bill Keating went off on Rep. Self and adjourned the meeting over his lack of decorum and purposeful targeting of Sarah McBride.
