Government actions do not represent all it's people, even in a democracy. Gov'ts can not represent religions. The actions of the Isreali govenment do not represent the Jewish people, they represent a political government and president that only 15% of Isrealis support reelecting.

Media — pay attention! In re Pro Palestinian advocacy: Being Anti Israeli State (AIS) is not and should not be deployed as a synonym for Anti Semitism. Attend the narrative. Battles are won and lost and misrepresented by the framing.

Share widely and to my Namibia 🇳🇦 siblings, please be safe!

🚨SAFETY WARNING🚨 We have received reports that homophobes are targeting LGBTQI+ events & safe spaces, such as the Brewers Market, and encouraging people to “attack and castrate” queer persons. We encourage our community to stay vigilant and cautious, please take safety measures

Physicians & scientists who are unwilling to learn new concepts in the biology & psychosocial contexts of gender & sexuality should retire. Besides, none of these concepts are new. The idea of “two genders” is actually relatively new & rooted in white supremacy & colonialism.

Online misinformation about toddlers starting gender transitions at Duke is false. Duke Health has provided high-quality, compassionate, and evidence-based gender care to both adolescents and adults for many years.

Went to law school precisely to learn how to narrow my view. It's an extraordinary fiction.

“For 20 years, the HIV mortality rate has been higher in men than in women. Treatment became available in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2003 and if you looked at the CD4 level when people started therapy in that period, it was 120 for men and 180 for women.” Dr. Chris Beyrer said.
