Biden selected Dr. Rachel Levine to be assistant secretary of health, which would make her the first transgender woman to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Levine faced scrutiny last May after she moved her mother out of a personal care facility shortly after she implemented a policy directing Pennsylvania’s nursing homes and certain care facilities to admit hospital-discharged COVID-19 patients. Biden called her nomination “historic.”
Critics charge her decision led to the deaths of more than 4,800 Pennsylvania residents in long-term care facilities.
We are appalled by @potus’s executive order erasing the sex-based rights of women and girls. It deals a severe blow to women and girls in sport, prisons, rape shelters, hospitals etc and bans lesbians and gays from having our own spaces. We will help our US friends to oppose it.
In light of Biden’s recent EO, I’d like to share @FondOfBeetles‘ and my @WSJ essay from last year on the real dangers of denying the reality of biological sex.
“Where Have All the Lesbians Gone?,” asks Katie Herzog. Today, she says, they’re likely to self-identify as nonbinary—or as men.
Politically correct conversion therapy:
The forthcoming ruling in the Keira Bell case could reverberate worldwide. Evidence shows a massive increase in the number of girls, mostly lesbians, “identifying” as boys. Cross-sex hormones produce irreversible effects, often including infertility./1of2https://t.co/h6LSkQ2iuz
Former Iceland PM “refers to LGB Alliance, which points out that some of the children that people want to say are trans could become homosexual & happy. We are back to the point where homosexuality needs to be corrected.” https://t.co/3Vqt0BSVmx
“If you do not accept that everyone has a gender identity then you are automatically labelled transphobic which means you can no longer discuss women’s lives and what’s happening to lesbians.” Interview with LGB Alliance founders Kate Harris & Bev Jackson https://t.co/EzQhJok6Ge
“In response to media attention and customer complaints, Target reversed itself; my book is again for sale. But other books will be quietly suppressed. In an America where the left has achieved dominance of cultural institutions and adopted a tyrannical opposition to other ideas, where social media extends its reach, and where books are distributed by a handful of retailers—a book burning doesn’t even require a populist uprising. It takes only one online extremist or two to make a book disappear. And when that happens, don’t look to the ACLU to defend you.”
“Most of this censorious mentality stems from the warped proposition that ideas with which ones disagrees are not just misguided but ‘dangerous’ and even ‘fatal.'” https://t.co/DydjEiFPt5 via @ggreenwald
Target stopped selling my book. An ACLU official wants it removed from circulation. An English professor even wants to burn it, writes @AbigailShrierhttps://t.co/6hxSIgwbH1 via @WSJ
Charles M. Blow of the New York Times is very upset by this!
Also, the percentage of LGBT voting for Trump doubled from 2016. DOUBLED!!! This is why LGBT people of color don’t really trust the white gays. Yes, I said what I said. Period. pic.twitter.com/4SS4c4z76f
People are surprised, but I don't know why. It is logical to me that the first president who favored marriage equality when he took office would have a majority of supporters who support gay rights as well.
The formerly persecuted, whose identity and sense of moral advantage is firmly based on that self-conception, can never allow themselves to see that they have become the persecutors.
