I worry that they can empirically prove it over and over again and it won't matter because the belief that trans women are athletically advantaged over cis women is based in hatred (for both trans and cis women) and not in empirical observation. The belief is motivated by patriarchy, not science.
What's that you say!
It was all just fear pushing by bad faith groups and that trans women pose no threat to cisgender women.

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

People that spent all of 2023-2024 calling trans people groomers because the very far right pedophile ring that just got outed was grossed out by the notion of fucking teenage trans boys: Lol we were totally vindicated!
We don’t owe them anything. They spent a decade ignoring obvious evidence implicating the most guilty while fabricating insane accusations against the innocent.

Cause we all know the first thing cops do before they tackle you to the ground and beat the shit out of you is ask to see a note from your doctor.
Sadly, the push for anti-mask laws is back. The Alabama House has passed a bill that would criminalize protesting in a mask without a doctor’s note.

Anti-masking laws have never been taken up by the U.S. Supreme Court and have had mixed results in lower courts.

For the love of this website please just quit already! You've done nothing but be an embarrassment given how often you're caught selectively enforcing the ToS (mostly only punishing leftists, women and minorities for being a little mean while letting white conservative men do and say whatever).

This was just me making this comparison yesterday, but today the Korean news is calling Minnesota "America's Gwangju" and have human rights lawyers explaining how America is now living through the dictatorship Korea once had.
The Chun regime that my wife fought against in the 80s did the exact same thing. They needed a "crisis" that "only they could solve" to hoard more ill-gotten power, so they chose one city (Gwangju), declared its inhabitants enemies, sent trucks full of soldiers to violently attack and kill them.
