    Shame the comment section is full of people pre-emptively attacking anyone that might not agree with their own opinions.

    Thought there’d be people open to discussing the article, guess it’s not a whole lot different than Reddit or 4chan.

      “Might not agree with their opinion” i.e repeating claims not grounded in actual data

      EDIT: also worth mentioning the account this comment is replying to is only 7 days old which raises some suspicions there

      Yeah, and calling them transphobes as if that’s the only motivation anyone has to be worried about this stuff.

      I’m running an experiment where I just ruthlessly block every single user demonstrating that kind of behaviour. Hopefully one day I’ll have a really slow feed consisting of only the handful of people left that don’t act like a total jerks despite being anonymous.
