Here's the good news: it will only work if you let them

Just a few hours ago, the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) removed its “Standards of Care v8” and the name of its president, Marci Bowers, from its website. This comes two weeks to the day after Environmental Progress published leaked WPATH Files, which show widespread medical misconduct. Those files resulted in hundreds of news articles around the world. One week later, the National Health Service of England announced a ban on puberty blockers by its clinicians.

The question now turns to how and why Western institutions not only allowed but also facilitated what appears to be the worst medical mistreatment scandal in history. Everyone from the New York Times to the American Medical Association has, for years, relied on WPATH. Neither the Times nor AMA have responded to the WPATH Files, despite growing evidence that "gender medicine" is the largest medical mistreatment scandal in history.

The media’s “bloodbath” disinformation may be a psychological projection. Perhaps reporters fear an electoral bloodbath in November, given that Biden is trailing Trump in the polls, and that non-white voters are leaving Democrats in droves.

 

Or the bloodbath talk may be a way of keeping the public scared and easier to control. After all, that’s what the media’s been doing since 2016, and it’s worked, to some extent, at least when it comes to increasing support among Democrats for things like censorship.
