Does the author not understand the concept of "opinion piece"? Every "article" he takes issue with is NOT a scientific article, but an opinion piece.

It would be nice to add some evidence to justify the character assassination. I browsed the recent articles and it didn’t seem filled with titles targeting trans rights. Perhaps you’re thinking of a specific one?

And the reason is because you are lying, and you know you are lying.

I can't respond to that post because it's flagged, but hard disagree on that too. Jesse Signal is far from transphobic.
