Singal's fundamental assertion underlying the article is that all of the accusations against Zucker across the decades are part of a activist mob" trying to shut him down via political correctness. Just "woke mob" bullshit using the language of 2016.

Seems to me that an honest person would say upfront that the report they were defending was so flawed that it resulted in a settlement like this.
the settlement was surrounding a single false accusation of zucker degrading a trans man, and some minor errors in describing individual patient interactions
the reporting on his clinical practices was not retracted
I didn't go to that clinic, but I have been inpatient held at CAMH before and it was all you can eat rotten medieval times buffet
Fantastic start, Jesse.
Jesus fucking Christ, what the fuck?!

"Square slides," "from the chest up," lots of supporting citations of facial attractiveness literature - if I were reviewing a paper like this, I would assume they were working with headshots based on what they said.
Also, this somehow isn't considered distribution of child pornography. What's going on, Ontario?

Had a read; there were 4 groups.
One group of transgender people with gender affirming care.
3 groups of cis people.
The trans group had higher suicide rates.
This was not testing what they thought it was.
Why did he have photos of his patients?
And why didn't he have his license taken away for photographing his patients then showing them to students to ask if how hot they are??
As “wtf” as this is, this isn’t surprising to see. At all.
(It did allege that Zucker asked intrusive sexual questions; and pressured a trans boy to remove his shirt in front of clinicians.)
Accessibility is everyone's responsibility.
Feels like common sense, which I guess is really telling about accessibility stuff.
If it was ever going to work, it would have by now.
Manipulative crap, but for a reader, potentially effective manipulative crap.
