This is great but I would add a big reason GCs are stuck on gametes is they spent ages hopping from trait to trait ("it's genitals! No? Okay, XX/XY!! No? Okay it's...") and gametes are the square they were on when they found themselves at the end of the board without further spaces to retreat to.
I have a new essay coming out next week so stay tuned! since one of the ppl I critique in it is a hardcore "gamete truther", I figured I'd re-up this – discusses both the actual biology & the bonkers anti-trans talking point that's grown out of it (no paywall): juliaserano.medium.com/why-are-gend...
Why Are “Gender Critical” Activists So Fond of Gametes?

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit.

All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

There's a lot of data here that debunks ROGD, so you should definitely read it and spread it around. I recently read Littman's study for the purpose of citing where the stereotype of the "young autistic girls who think they're boys" stereotype came from, I'll post excerpts in the replies

remember that pathetic AI video just before Biden dropped out of him jumping and dancing out onto a stage? I think this may be even more pathetic
Trump supporters are also making shitty AI videos of Trump arresting Mamdani in the Oval Office.

They don't know how to process what just happened in real life, so they're making the version they prefer with AI.

Some leaked (not verified) info on the puberty blocker trial linked here. In my own thread I will briefly highlight the two key measures they are prioritising. A short thread 1
A Substacker named Ben Ryan tweeted that "the long-awaited UK puberty blocker clinical trial protocol is out."

Shortly thereafter he deleted the post. I can't find a public version of the protocol but here's what I was able to salvage from the screenshot + post.

most of the Republicans who voted for this think Obama, Biden, & Harris are "socialists", whereas the centrist Dems who voted for this think "socialism" refers to anyone to their political left...
BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
