I stopped subscribing to most science magazines several years ago on the basis of the number of articles that were quite simply wrong. It now seems journalism has become a new category of fiction. Be aware that this even includes organizations such as TED which censors presentations based upon wacky journalistic expertise. Science journalists have become wild renegades from what was once a reputable discipline and now personal opinion outranks data. Journalists inherently believe that facts depend heavily upon the numbers of people that support them. Welcome to the fanatical fascist future of science.

Very sad to watch the scientific profession abandon evidence and embrace fantasty.

Helmuth is all about dogma, which is the opposite of science.

If anything, she should be noting the new European conclusions re trans care for kids and comparing those to current US standards/practice.

Instead she takes it upon herself to dismiss any disagreement.

She has no business heading up any science org.

Major development in the annals of scientific publishing. Let's hope the rest of science jumps out of the sheer madness lane. #Respect for #BMJ.

We need fewer activists in positions of responsibility. They all turn into authoritarian bastards as soon as they can.

When people who disagree with me respond with name calling (or when I want to), I know their/my evidence is weak. It's lazy. It's not about being right. I want the truth so I won't be wrong.

Excellent expose of another demon. Just subscribed. Thank you. Although my educational background is in geoscience, before universities became indoctrination centres, my experience leans more to truth searching, and I believe anyone can be a scientist through reading and practical application of the truth. Certainly these days, if you are interested in real science, you should never enrol in a government matrix institution of indoctrination. As such, I can say without equivocation, once generally interesting, mildly science backed publications such as SA, National Geographic, and Nature, have been for over two decades, almost devoid of real science, and packed full of complete leftist nonsense propaganda. Quite shameful actually!

This defies logic. Moloch has been around for a very long time.

A fanatical destruction of Life (in this case, innocent children) is the root of what we are experiencing and it goes beyond logic because it is insanity. I sigh and pray for their souls.

This is my simply my opinion because I can find no logic to this destructive behavior that is lifted high as if it is truth and the target is innocent children.
