      Apparently a few skeptics who (or so they claim) previously admired my work are oh-so-"disappointed" in me because I responded to @jk_rowling's transphobic junk science in a snarky, disrespectful manner and because I don't support their nonsense about Trans people.🙄

      And yet you claim to promote science not quackery. Believing that men can be women, that people can change sex and that it’s ethical to use unproved medical interventions on children & young people sounds like the very definition of quackery to me

      One good thing. The transphobes are coming out of the woodwork, allowing me to mute or block them.😉

          It also identifies them for others to block. Think of it as my little public service.

          How about engaging with the people (mostly women) who are calling you out? If you have a good argument, there's no need to mute or block :-)

          Dr Rachel Levine is head of my state health department and it boggles my mind the sheer number of transphobic comments on any COVID-19 news article she is quoted in. Employers should scan those news articles to see if their employees are outing themselves as bigots.
