Maybe you should do more research instead of advocating for then.
I know what the word ‘genocide’ means. The left just misuses words all the time.
I don’t need to ‘do more research’
You definitely could do more research since you disagree with scientific consensus on trans issues and think you know better how it aught to be.
I didn't see anyone accuse you of genocide but from your other comments I wouldn't be surprised if you did and just didn't know it or tried to pretend you didn't because of a technicality.
I would have disagreed with lobotomies too, had I been around for that. I don’t really see the point you’re trying to make here.
There really isn’t any such thing as scientific consensus, not as it relates to truth. Science is ever evolving and asking questions, and re-answering old questions when we discover new information.
There is no ‘this is settled’ in science.
Well, you don’t know what genocide means. It’s okay
