One of the wonderful things about Substack Notes (you should absolutely check it out if you haven’t already) is that it creates a place for you to hear from all different types of voices that algorithms might typically have hidden from you.
One of the people I’ve taken to following is Erin Reed. Erin is a leftist…but she’s also tracking trans legislation all over the country and does a good job of it, so why not follow along and gain the value I can while also observing leftist talking points at work.

Now, because Erin is a leftist, you must assume that she’s trying to craft a narrative of this being the end of the world and the downfall of humanity. Never take their word for it. Always look up the primary sources.

In fact, both Erin and that doctor are leaving A LOT out, and that doctor is lying to their patients about what is going on.
Most of the reporting I’ve read on it is lying too, leaving out key provisions that undercut the narrative they are trying to sell you.
