🚨 WPATH has conceded in court that its "Standards of Care" is merely an opinion. WPATH says it represents one side of an unsettled scientific debate marked by uncertainty — and physicains & orgs that rely on WPATH as the standard of care must bear "independent responsibility."/1
@canadiandobie@stephen_taylor People die waiting in the US for care too - ER wait times are longer than here, lack of health insurance, financial burden of co-pays
@stephen_taylor Last year between 2 family members - 6 ER visits, full cancer treatment, MRI, radiation, 2 clinical trials, 3 month hospital admissions, in ICU for 5 weeks, 7 months home care (hospice at home) with 4 visits per day...the cost to my family? parking fees at the hospital 🇨🇦
🚨 OMG. Stunning resurfaced footage shows Ugandan Mayor Mamdani saying the plan is to manipulate white leftists into electing 3rd worlders like him
Spoken in his 3rd world accent: "You need someone to be a validator, tell them to TRUST US."
🤯🤯
"Minority communities, because we've never had representation, we are tied to identity. White communities...are more ideology...voters think of themselves first as progressive."
Muslim invaders PURPOSEFULLY position themselves as "validators" to manipulate the public into handing over control
TERRIFYING.
He needs to be deported.
Joe Scarborough looks visibly sickened as he hears DSA co-chair Megan Romer say October 7th was "largely inevitable" and admit she "probably would have" attended a pro-Hamas rally the day after the massacre.
Even MSNBC couldn't stomach this one.
SCARBOROUGH: "The co-chair of the DSA supported going to a pro-Hamas rally the day after Hamas gleefully slaughtered more Jews on October 7th than any day the Jews were slaughtered since the Holocaust."
"This would be like going to a pro-al-Qaeda rally on September 12th, which I'm sure many people in the DSA would say, 'Well, that would be perfectly fine.'"
Joe Scarborough left the GOP over Trump in 2017. Nine years later, he's admitting his own side is full of people who would call a pro-al Qaeda rally on September 12th "perfectly fine."
You have to wonder what's going through this guy's head right now.
@WTSmith17 I think she eventually got to the heart of her argument: we have to overcorrect and force DEI, and assume that this will lead to good things down the line (while dismissing and minimizing any negatives because nothing is as bad as actual racism)
@ProfAliceS Sociology and psychology are in dire need of an existential reckoning...we thought we were immune to ideological capture but it turns out it happens to us just as easily as anyone else
Now we need to dig deep to rip out the roots of ignorance that have been growing for decades
@mattvanswol Vaccines teach your body how to fight off infection...it's not a magical barrier that prevents the virus from entering your body
This is how all vaccines work
@spikedonline Sociology needs to defend itself
Sociology needs to take a good hard look at itself and take some accountability for how something like this happened
Sociology also has to uncouple itself from identity politics and go back to empirical study
@MsMelChen When I did my PhD dissertation, I was told it needed to be a substantial contribution to the field. I wasn't supposed to be easy, it was supposed to make a difference. I cannot even fathom what passes for a doctoral thesis nowadays.
"Steven Pinker’s The Blank Slate Was a Warning We Ignored," write biologist Colin Wright @SwipeWright. [It] seems to have aged in reverse... Pinker’s great achievement in The Blank Slate was not simply showing that genes matter, as many competent scientists have demonstrated before. Rather, it was exposing the way that fear of human nature had distorted entire fields of study...." https://t.co/Vfms4jR8P4
Caitlin has legit had some of the funniest technical fouls this season...
