think if you're broadly a centrist and were suuuuuper concerned about attacks on free speech from the left and so you decided to give the right a hearing then you need to realise you were taken for QUITE the ride (and don't really have anyone to blame but yourself)

3 Aug 25 - New study shows vast "over-representation of trans boys" turns out to be vast _under-representation_ of trans girls bec. they: a) come out ~10 years later; b) start puberty later; & c) delay transitioning longer because of deep social animus towards AMAB femininity.

Saw a line on (threads? insta?) that said something like, 'when an electorate has been systemically impoverished, they'll vote against liberty for the promise of food'.
This a dangerously low level of public trust in government.
The kind of thing that is followed by people saying they prefer ’strong leaders’ to democracy.

This is how "This side says X, but the other side says Y" balance ends up distorting journalism. Instead of being based on the journalist's own independent, impartial analysis this question really just ventriloquises a partisan opposition stance and gives the impression the BBC fully agrees with it.

The fact that Europeans companies are also cutting anything that even remotely looks like DEI because they're worried about being shut out of the American market is wild. "Close your women's union or else" is something you'd hear from a 19th century tycoon, not a modern day presidency
