🚨I was wrong. When I entered the gender conversation publicly, I thought that “my side” (the gender critics) were motivated in our advocacy by our concern about the welfare of the young people who are being haphazardly placed onto an experimental social & medical gender transition pathway based on a shoddy evidence base underpinning. Apparently, I was wrong. Turns out, some of you on “my side” have neither concern nor compassion for the young people who find themselves ensnared in this, at all. I call the trans activists out all the time when they do this, and I now feel compelled to do the same to those who share many of my beliefs: It is unacceptable to politicize the death of a brutally murdered young person by denying them their very humanity, while also claiming to stand on the side of human rights. This is the realm of the most evil kind of hypocrisy imaginable. Celebrating, joking or making light of the murders of innocent people, be they Charlie Kirk or Juniper Blessing cannot ever be tolerated. We mustn’t allow disagreements over ideology or with the lifestyles of others cause us to lose our humanity. Because politics based upon nothing more than contempt will NEVER create a more just and peaceful world. Rest in peace, Juniper. You deserved to live 80 more years. You deserved to be still singing in your choir. You deserved to be attending your college classes. You deserved to make the stupid mistakes that all young people will make, and to grow old enough to learn from them. You deserved the chance to become a brilliant scientist with enough hard work on your part. Or you deserved to have the chance to realize that maybe atmospheric science wasn’t your calling, and then to try on a new hat. Or to try on 500 hats until you found the one that fit. You deserved to grow up. You did not deserve to be murdered by a deranged lunatic, whatever his deranged motive, while you were just trying to do your laundry. And you certainly did not deserve to have your murder paraded around as cannon fodder in one of the most caustic issues of our time, by BOTH sides of the issue. Juniper, may your memory be for blessing. You deserved so much better.

They want people to think they’re being segregated for being ‘trans’, rather than excluded from women’s spaces because they’re men.
