I find Bernard’s tone soothing, but I’m a sucker for an Aussie accent. More germane is his encyclopedic knowledge of the issue worldwide, because I’m aiming to inform more than perform with this project. He’s a journalist, not an entertainer, but if an episode doesn’t wow you it’s okay to just move on without insulting anyone.

Excellent episode. This was a frightening line: "we're going to get a generation of law students who have been fed this propaganda, who become judges."

Similar in medicine, my field.

It'd be lovely to see a way ahead that includes the making of consultants who are awake, let alone GP's and specialists.

In Australia we had a recent “ racial vilification” case in which the judge used the terms “othering” & “lived experience”.

Thank you. That was the one comment my husband found alarming. I do too — never thought I’d feel encouraged by the gerontocratic vibes the Supreme Court gives off, but I feel that way right now!

I was a "regular person" who became radicalized by schools teaching gender ideology to kindergarten children; that there is no such thing as boys and girls. Anyone who is or was a parent recognizes the vulnerability of teens and can easily imagine the horror of bad actors praying on them.
