@Docstockk I am sorry, but that was the tamest most reasonable ambush I have ever seen. Dr Stock, academia is failing to address this problem and we are losing the battle. We need proactive elements doing PR attracting attention of the media because the attrition is real and ongoing...
@Docstockk ...We are in the very dangerous situation where trans lobby ideology is being readily adopted across the Western world, and it is not going to get fixed by reasonable people such a yourself speaking well on Women's Hour. That is the sad truth...
@Docstockk The way Posie did that ambush is almost the best way to do an ambush. We need to be more proactive, we need to assert ourselves and we do now need to actively resist the prevailing peer pressure. We need to demand that people justify their position, and counter this madness...
@Docstockk I don't like activism & I do not like protest, but there comes a point where protest is the only way you counter erroneous assumed truths. I think that if we do not now protest & get the criticisms validated in the public domain, people like you will lose their job within 5 years
@Docstockk My personal opinion is that a very virtue centered moral dogma has let to this climate where it is seen as compassionate to mutilate and destroy young people's bodies and justify it as progressive. That is a major challenge to square particularly for those that are left leaning.
@Docstockk We have allowed the medical & pharmaceutical world to pathologize a range of conditions that they can make money out of fixing. We are fighting a lot of people that have made convincing people they need to mutilate their bodies the way they pay their mortgage and feed their face.
@Docstockk They are not going to roll over when faced with a salient criticism or incontrovertible proof of their wrongdoing. Those bastards will hang on for grim death. Talking sense will not be enough, we need the message spread with effective PR...
@Docstockk This is not going to be fixed with meetings in back rooms or at academic conferences, it is going to be fixed with public outrage at stories that hit the press and media and social media because of people like Posie...
@Docstockk Posie is quite considered, knowledgeable and reasonable for a tubthumper. I think academics need to make sure that their side is doing their bit, so that when the full outrage at the results of this ideology do hit the public consciousness, all our credible foundations are robust
