A roundup of news and commentary from around the interwebs.

Jon Kay on Canada’s Green Party leader, who appears to have been made in a lab by woke scientists:
Canadian progressive politics in a nutshell: Green Party leader—who, Wikipedia tells us, identifies as "non-binary, transgender, & pan-sexual, & uses they/them & he/him pronouns"—is misgendered by an electronic caption…and responds to it by denouncing "this system of oppression" https://t.co/L0SUkyD8UPpic.twitter.com/dSpmZ6j9d0
As per the Times of Israel, 100 Jewish groups are backing the current attempt to codify same-sex marriage in U.S. law.

More bad news for the porn industry, this time from Germany:
NEWS: The German government confirms they are shutting down MindGeek sites Pornhub, YouPorn and Mydirtyhobby for failure to protect children unless they implement reliable age verification. MindGeek’s widespread abuse of children is finally coming to an end. #Traffickinghubpic.twitter.com/43jRzdfqhW
This is what “sex education” means in the 21st century:
*CHILDREN SHOULD WATCH THEIR PARENTS HAVE SEX
This is what sex education means now. The next time you meet someone that says “it’s just about safety/inclusion/empathy”, show them this & watch them break their groomer spine trying to justify it. @libsoftiktok@MattWalshBlogpic.twitter.com/VAummIt2yZ
If you want an explanation for the level of grief in the video above, consider this: even a surgeon who specializes in sex change surgeries admits—and I’ll bet this isn’t in the fine print—that those who transition before puberty will never experience sexual satisfaction. Consider that: Never.

And all that—for what? A Nobel Prize winner recently debunked the claim that anyone can change sex. It is simply not possible.
Children’s hospitals nationwide will soon be faced with the decision whether to continue following the guidance of a leading transgender health association that is expected to lower its recommended ages for chest and genital surgeries to minors under 18.
The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) has yet to release its much-anticipated Standards of Care Version 8, which will lower its age recommendations for breast removal to 15 years old, and genital surgery, including womb and testicle removal, to 17 years old – a year earlier than its previous guidance, the Associated Press reported in June, citing an unreleased draft of the new guidance.
Meanwhile, another blow against freedom of speech and the right to life for those with disabilities in Europe:
On Thursday, after a long legal battle, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) struck a blow against free speech and dignity for people with disabilities by failing to rule in favor of a French Down syndrome advocacy organization. The court found inadmissible a petition from Fondation Jérôme Lejeune, France’s leading organization for Down’s syndrome research and care, which claimed the French state television’s 2016 decision to ban one of its messages constituted unjust censorship.
The message, a television adaptation of the video “Dear Future Mom,” offers encouragement to a mother expecting a baby with Down syndrome. Several individuals with the condition share some of the fulfilling moments in their lives. It ends with them embracing their mothers. The group’s goal with the video was to dispel misconceptions about people with Down syndrome.
Such an innocuous goal caused it to run afoul of the French Broadcasting Council, however. The broadcasting authority called the production “disturbing” to the consciences of some women and claimed it was not “a message of general interest.”
Meanwhile, a new member of Liz Truss’s UK government has come under fire. Consider this headline from the BBC: “Therese Coffey’s views on abortion concerning, charity says.” The “charity” in question? The UK’s leading abortion provider. What a joke.
It’s no surprise that Planned Parenthood is not, as The Federalist put it, on the way out—the abortion giant is merely “transitioning” by engaging in a lucrative side business supplying gender transition drugs. There’s more than one way to destroy a child, and Planned Parenthood is engaging in nearly all of them.
