    going on Fox News to defend the usage of “female” and “male” as categories of biological sex in medical classes.

    Yeah no one is saying to use different terms when it comes to biological sex. It’s not happening. What they’re likely doing is simply saying there’s more complexity to what defines biological sex. Going on Fox News and saying that is showing who she is. A believer in the far rights talking points when it comes to trans issues. She went on Fox News to defend something like that when that thing just isn’t happening is why she was likely pushed out. Because shes parroting far right talking points.

    And as we’ve seen recently with a handful of Democrats throwing trans people under the bus, her being a lifelong Democrat means nothing here.

      Yes, people did precisely that in this case. Or do you speak for all trans people and trans allies? I didn’t get the memo. You’re literally doing the thing being criticized. I explained to you that they were pushed out for defending the terms female and male for biological sex in her field. Your response: “yeah, that’s not what it was, it’s because she’s a crypto-conservative working for the IDF.”

      It’s like, well. OK, but that’s not what happened. Many people on the left have gone on fox news to defend positions. Do you just assume they too are all therefore secretly conservative? What a silly worldview to have.

      Regardless, I’m not going to bicker with you, I don’t want you hyperventilating again. I’ll block you and make it easier for both of us. Good luck with your video games.
