Sure, because we've been taught that is cringe. Personally, I like learning new things (even if it's not something I'd "normally" be interested in), so I love it when my people both infodump, and then the look of pure joy when they realize that I'm into it.

Milton: We use only the finest baby frogs, dew picked and flown from Iraq, cleansed in finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and then sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope and lovingly frosted with glucose.
Praline: That's as maybe, it's still a frog.
Milton: What else?
Praline: Well don't you even take the bones out?
Milton: If we took the bones out it wouldn't be crunchy would it?
Praline: Superintendent Parrot ate one of those.
Parrot: Excuse me a moment. (exits hurriedly)
Milton: It says 'crunchy frog' quite clearly.
Praline: Well, the superintendent thought it was an almond whirl. People won't expect there to be a frog in there. They're bound to think it's some form of mock frog.
Milton: (insulted) Mock frog? We use no artificial preservatives or additives of any kind!
Praline: Nevertheless, I must warn you that in future you should delete the words 'crunchy frog', and replace them with the legend 'crunchy raw unboned real dead frog', if you want to avoid prosecution.
WV native here. He and his family (see his daughter's involvement in EpiPen pricing) have enriched themselves by swindling those who have less than themselves. He's a Republican dressed up as a Democrat so he could run in WV.
You are making a false equivalency between "being Christian" and "being a bigot". While there is a high correlation, particularly with some denominations of Christianity, they are not synonymous. (Heck, I've seen some religious groups at my local Pride celebrations for years.)
Presumably you're aware of this.
Well, sure, if they weren't misrepresenting their motives. The real motive is indoctrination and the incorporation of a specific flavor of Christianity into all aspects of USAian society, transforming it into a theocracy. They're not particularly subtle about this. :)
I believe their logic is such (I'm not involved with the study, but have a background in medicine and research):
Elevated PSA (a blood test) signals prostate cancers.
PSA tests are relatively routine bloodwork with an assumption of uniform coverage across all patients, trans or not.
PSA tests are presumed to uncover early cancer presentation.
Therefore, if we're only seeing advanced cancer presentation in trans women, the PSA test is a poor screening device for early prostate cancer in that population.
Point 2 is a big assumption; I am ignorant if that would be a confounding variable in real life, or if that's even been studied.
They're getting two birds with one stone.
For what it's worth, if you post a story (for example) to the open internet -- your blog, social media -- and there is NOT a paywall or explicitly restricted access, many (if not all) publishers will consider that material previously published. That doesn't mean it's public domain at all, but it does recognize that the work is not private. Likewise, I'd consider any social media post being akin to posting a sign in my front yard. If someone does the work of driving by and taking pictures of the signs in my front lawn, that's their right -- unless I'm in a closed, gated community.
Then again, i see people thinking that they somehow "own" their Facebook feed, so ....
Neurodivergent person shares one special interest, neurotypical tells you everything you need to know about them.
The effect would be felt by both LGBTQIA+ clubs and GSA's in the schools, at a bare minimum. They would be unable to utilize the pride flag, for example, in any kind of advertisement, logo, banner, etc.
Yes, it's a self-reinforcing algorithm that specializes in quick sound bites. (Of course there's exceptions, but they're exceptions.) This tracks.
