This is literally what MAGA wanted, fewer foreigners they would have to share air with. I'm surprised anyone is still surprised that USA is shooting itself in the foot, that was the intent. The pain is considered worth the price of sharing ANYTHING.

HOW THE ANTI-GENDER MOVEMENT SPREAD ACROSS EUROPE “From 2017, a new and distinctly British phenomenon emerged: a well-resourced so-called “gender critical” movement, framing opposition to trans inclusion not as religious conservatism but as feminist defence of women’s “sex-based rights””

And yet I was only allowed to access a 1955 B.Litt. thesis, the only lengthy study on Robert Braybrooke, in person and take notes (no photos). I had to sign a register of those who had ever accessed the thesis.

I never saw that article, but yes, these Christians have been living in an imaginary world like this long before the modern jihadist movement began. It's a culture more than a century old that became even more radicalized beginning in the 1970s

This inverted view of logic is also why reactionaries cannot be negotiated with. They think that real atmospheric science, history, psychology, etc. is "liberally biased." They literally cannot understand what you are saying without great effort.

Delaying our puberties, making us transition mid-life and mid-career, this fucks trans adults up. Letting teens especially have access to gender-affirming care, this saves lives. Full stop.

It's sobering to realize that someone close to Trump is probably trying to explain to him right now why nuclear war in Europe would somehow be bad for him, even though he lives thousands of miles away. Even more sobering when you realize it's probably the fourth or fifth time they've told him.
