It's entirely predictable now. The center-left (aka "mainstream") media refuses to cover the controversy of youth transition; all they do is cheerlead. All nuance is ceded to the right/center-right. When a journo dares to touch it, the MSM immediately cries "transphobia." #boring
Case in point: @WSJopinion publishes op-ed by writer who interviewed mothers whose teens experienced sudden gender dysphoria. @nytimes immediately claims "conservatives invented a syndrome" via puff piece by MTF whose teen now also claims a trans identity.

Never mind the mothers interviewed by @AbigailShrier are nearly all liberals (one is a former @PFLAG leader); never mind not one claimed to "diagnose" a "syndrome." @nytimes has abandoned investigative reporting on the topi. It continues to serve as a one-note propaganda outlet.

"Trying to hector these people into silence for fear of being lumped w/the religious right will not only not work, it will backfire very badly."
