In The European Conservative, John Rosenthal warns of a broadening European censorship complex that’s attempting not just to muzzle Europeans or control American tech platforms operating in the EU, but is going after the free speech of Americans in the U.S. Rosenthal profiles HateAid, a supposedly “independent” outfit that operates as “trusted flaggers” of suspect content for tech platforms, but is in fact supervised by government, funded by government and staffed by people with deep ties to the EU superstate.
Radical Transgenderism Takes Another Hit
The 11,000-member American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) – which includes hundreds of Canadian members – “has come out unequivocally against ‘gender-affirming’ surgeries in adolescents under age 19,” writes Leor Sapir in City Journal. The ASPS has also joined a growing number of international organizations in warning about the potential physical and psychological damage to children and teens of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.
[Editor’s note: Two days after the ASPS’s announcement, the American Medical Association announces it now agrees that gender-altering “surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”]
