I quickly search it and all I could find was a clip which was hard clipped of Butch saying “I don’t think that biological males should play in female sports, I think it gives an unfair, you know, competitive advantage.”
What I wonder is whether he brought this up on his own or somebody asked him for his personal opinion on the matter. But the cut off on the clip does raise some questions. Fake progressives like AOC then going after the Greens for it raises all the more questions.
Look, just phrasing any of this in terms of ‘biological males’ indicates his knowledge of the transgender rights movement is very outdated (use the term Assigned Male at Birth! gender isn’t biological and sex doesn’t work like that!) or he’s using explicitly transphobic terminology. Either way, it reflects that he holds a position that trans people and their advocates are 100% in the right to revoke support over. AOC will always take any opportunity to attack the Greens, she’s an opportunist. That doesn’t mean that what he said is acceptable.
