The progressive left’s embrace of promoting the transing of gender-nonconforming kids and letting boys who “identify” as female compete against girls in high school and college sports was one of the reasons sane people chose to vote for Trump, despite everything. Sadly, a rationale approach to treating transgender adults is lost in the extremism targeting (often gay) kids for transitioning, or letting gender-dysphoric boys or often-fetishicistic men (who “identify” as female but are physically male) use women’s locker rooms and showers.
When progressives are challenged, their response is typically to end the debate by lobbing the accusation of “transphobe” or “fascist.” The “slur” in the clip below that caused the progressive to throw a tantrum was referring to male minors who identify as female (or, who have been indoctrinated into getting on the trans train because they are gender-nonconforming) as “boys.”
This is an amazing clip, because it shows exactly how our debates end up being rigged by those who claim offense. The solution—“solution”—that is suggested is for Singleton to completely concede his position. It’s “do carry on, but not with the view you were expressing.” https://t.co/u66QCqV58E
