1/ The Madness of Crowds, a must-read book by @DouglasKMurray , devotes about half of its Trans chapter to "affirmative" US clinicians, particularly Johanna Olson-Kennedy, w/ cameo appearances of Diane Ehrensaft & Aydin Olson-Kennedy. We're glad our work was drawn on extensively.https://twitter.com/preta_6/status/1218043593778008064 …

2/ 4thWaveNow was not mentioned, though
@DouglasKMurray did link in endnotes to our original audio/video clips from our Vimeo channel to source undercover material recorded at gender conferences. Unfortunately, the month his book was released SOMEONE got our channel canceled.1 reply 3 retweets 30 likesShow this thread -
3/ This means all source links he used from our [unnamed in the book] channel are now dead in the print & Kindle versions of Madness of Crowds. However, the audio & video have a new home on Daily Motion, here. The publisher would be wise to update links.https://www.dailymotion.com/dm_6f462793deea10f62db1aaa3859f7a12 …

4/ Among topics aptly covered by
@DouglasKMurray is the infamous Pop Tarts presentation by Johanna Olson-Kennedy at 2017 USPATH conference, wherein she "helps" an 8-yr-old girl to see she's in the wrong wrapper; we wrote about it here (links are live).https://4thwavenow.com/2017/07/23/i-just-gave-him-the-language-top-gender-doc-uses-pop-tart-analogy-to-persuade-8-year-old-girl-shes-really-a-boy/ …3 replies 8 retweets 31 likesShow this thread -
5/ When we made short video clips from an obscure 2016 gender conference, the [Creative Commons] video had only been viewed 40 times. Now "barrettes" is a cult classic of sorts. Murray refers to the onesie-unsnapping portion of the clip here, as well ashttps://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7kqndw

6/ this lesser known clip from the same conference, wherein Joel Baum, key player in Gender Spectrum (SF Bay org influential in promoting affirm-only in schools & elsewhere) warns parents to affirm their kid--or else.https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7kqndu

8/ Madness of Crowds is essential reading about our Woke world, and
@DouglasKMurray covers a lot more than just trans issues in it. We hope the publisher will fix the broken links to our now-defunct Vimeo channel in the endnotes (whether we are credited as the source or not).2 replies 4 retweets 36 likesShow this thread
9/ We are very glad the more extreme practices & views of US affirmative gender clinicians have now been exposed to a wider audience in this very important book. Do yourself a favor and read it (or let @DouglasKMurray read it to you in the audio version).
