Teacher jailed for declining to use “preferred pronouns” (and other stories)

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:

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:

From The Blaze: “Eventbrite yanks down conservative group’s post advertising a watch party for Matt Walsh’s ‘What Is a Woman?’ documentary.” They’re fine advertising drag events for children, however.

This is what “sex education” means in the 21st century:

If your kids are in public school, pull them out.

If the mainstream media cared about real people rather than an ideological movement, they would tell stories like this. Watch it and weep:

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.

That isn’t stopping anyone. From Fox News:

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.

Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez is saying that men should speak up about abortion. Of course, plenty of us are. We think abortion destroys children and want them to be protected by law.

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.

Just as Jordan Peterson predicted, a teacher has been jailed for declining to use “preferred pronouns.” LGBT ideology is a state religion, and it is state-enforced.

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.

More soon.
