I wanted to give you (and the website you linked) the benefit of the doubt since with all the accusations they make there is a link in there. I thought it was sources of Jesse actually doing any of this stuff (which he didn't but I am willing to be proven wrong) .. but no. Those links are all just internal info dumps and almost nothing of the accusations on the page is sourced .. at all.

Right, the website lists the accusations with links, but the links seem unrelated to the accusations.

For example, I'd expect "criticizing expert medical and scientific consensus on healthcare for our minors" to link to some kind of article describing what Jesse Singal said about this topic and why it's incorrect, but instead it links to a general page about "healthcare providers serving gender diverse youth" that doesn't even mention anything about the accused person or their writings.

> I'm fine with labelling this person "anti trans"

You should probably at least give Jesse the right of reply here: https://unherd.com/2023/11/the-rage-behind-transgender-map/

Why

How dare they write for... The Atlantic!

Why are some people like this?

That's the one thing you pick up?

I had never heard of Singal but I went ahead and started following him. Thanks!

How exciting
