Agree IWM could do better with their material, and licencing etc, but he intentionally cropped out/removed the IWM/Pathe logo from videos, never credited them, and didn't do anything to point others to what he found, so I'm not sure what he was doing orignally could ever be described as 'amplifying'

...detail on the task, and it cut and paste a lot of it, but also got some important details wrong (used the wrong time separations between aircraft), made some errors (switched the aircraft around in an example scenario I described), and left out a lot of other factors I described in the forum 2/x

Transwomen are women. They are not a threat to cis women in female spaces.
As for sports, well, consider this:
There are 500,000 collegiate athletes in the US. There are 10 (ten) trans athletes.
Of Olympic athletes 0.001% identify as trans.
