"Testosterone testing on top" sounds like an alliteration from a particularly gay Gilbert & Sullivan aria. Which would be nice, in circumstances other than these

One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

Sometimes I think about where we would be as a culture today if #MeToo in 2017 had radicalized more straight men into fighting sexual abuse instead of creating a culture of "oh god don't get me CANCELED" and "fake accusations" paranoia and resentment

Yet another Democrat has released an ad decrying "boys in girls sports." This Democrat is NY-21's Democratic candidate for congress, Blake Gendebien. You can watch his full ad in our latest story. He joins several other Democrats releasing similar ads this cycle.

NY-21 Dem Congressional Candidate Blake Gendebien Releases Ad Decrying “Boys In Girls Sports”
This corresponds with a modest, but growing, trend: Democrats are capitalizing on anti-trans hysteria, or otherwise leaning into Republican narratives on so-called culture war issues.
