Quick takeaways

Non-binary surgeries are being performed by plastic surgeons under the threat of being labeled transphobic, leading to evidence-free medicine practices.

The promotion of transgender interventions in children's hospitals and academia is accompanied by an authoritarian and censorious culture that suppresses dissent.

Puberty blockers interfere with crucial brain structures, shutting down human experiences and disregarding the complexity of natural development.

Deep dives

Barbarism in the Name of Equality

Dr. Christopher Crane, a plastic surgeon, is performing non-binary surgeries, including castration and genital nullification procedures, as part of a pursuit of a utopian solution and a technical constructivist solution. Mutilating patients in the name of transgenderism has become an accepted practice due to the threat of being labeled transphobic. This evidence-free medicine goes against basic logic and medical ethics, yet the fear of backlash stifles any opposition or critical examination.

Wrap-up and Promotion

2min

In this 189th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.

In this episode we discuss twitter, free speech, and why zero is a special number. Bret sings a little, and invokes Ray Bradbury. Then we discuss a surgeon who is proud to do “non-binary” surgeries, and another doctor who describes how enforcement of Covid policies helped silence doctors who were critical of trans ideology. We discuss what puberty blockers are, and whether they are safe.
