She transitioned back to common sense - but she did the harm in the first place. Maybe she should segue now to a safe outta the way desk job?

:thinking-face:
When the facts change, change your opinion. I have huge respect for the courage it takes to admit that you're wrong. Sounds like a legitimate scientist to me

I agree, though the facts have never been the issue. She was ideologically captured, and now she isn’t. That does take courage, especially given how crazy her old team are…

Possibly. But here's an alternative... there's a lot of bad research out there. We know this for a fact, and a lot of that data is used in newer research, so basically castles built from sand. By the way the Mckinsey study on diversity, upon which DEI has been built has been widely debunked by quality social scientists, but it's still being used to support pseudo-science. It's not unusual for good scientists to rely on what they believe is legitimate peer reviewed research. What I admire about this person is that at some point they came to understand that something in the research or observable data showed that the approach was wrong. She took the appropriate steps to fix things. I can only wish that others would do the same. Unless there's evidence she was ideologically captured, and for the record I tend to believe that those that are won't change even if the truth slapped them in the face, I'm inclined to believe her original error was an honest one

In-fucking-credible!


If this is true, for me this is reason enough to go to civil war. This is simple, straight forward violence.

My late mother used to tell a story that, when I was two years old and people asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up, the answer was "mother". Nowadays they would cut off my dick for it. I can fucking guarantee you that I want to keep my dick.

Yeah, it’s a handy thing to have. On the other hand, you could have become a lovely gruesome little troll with pronouns, telling everyone ME-ME-ME!!

Try this!



Apart from the fact that I utterly disagree with the statement that someone that belives that there are only two genders is a right wing extremist, there is another problem. Let us assume that we all agree with that statement. Then how you describe a neo-nazi? Extremist to the power of two?

This is it, but it also highlights the difficulty of talking with indoctrinated tribalists. Completely incapable of thinking outside their party talking points, incapable of questioning their own position. I know this woman is probably an extreme example, typical of the idiot “activist” class…but she might also be saying the quiet part out loud too, you know? She’s what I commonly encounter when talking with the left..

I keep saying it, labels have lost their currency now. Racist, misogynist... water off a ducks back, because of people like this woman

What he says applies not only murderous, crazed Islamists, but also to unhinged, deranged, easily offended, leftists:

The extremists are still churning out their crazy stuff. I don’t know how they’ll ever change, they don’t hear anything outside the bubble. I pity that child, it’s being abused - and used for clicks. It’s a horror show. It’s a terrible evil…
