The Saudi government are brutal butchers who openly engage in torture, murder, and assassination. They should be shunned by polite society everywhere. Instead they're buying their way into everything and corrupting everything they touch.

![Comic. Someone is claiming to predict the exact date of a future earthquake. Should you listen?

Fenway Health just sent this message to all of their patients. They are lying to their patients telling them that cessation of gender affirming care to trans youth was due to a change in federal regulations. This is a lie. No such change was made to regulations. This was Fenway complying in advance.

Prompted by seeing questions like yours, I put together an answer.
As you note lower in the thread, the protests obviously haven’t fixed everything, or even made that much of a dent. But that doesn’t mean they accomplished nothing either.
It was a step. And in multiple ways, a significant one.
