Stephen Knight passionately critiques gender ideology, likening it to a form of modern fundamentalism. He argues that this ideology restricts free speech and undermines women's rights. Advocating for secular liberalism, he emphasizes the need to defend individual rights against coercive beliefs. The discussion raises important questions about the ongoing gender wars and the future of civil discourse.
