The article

I used to have an article here. On September 13, 2025 I moved it here: "How did it get created? It meandered"

2023 addendum: A connection to 'gender critical'

'gender critical' just means transphobe. it'd be like if homophobes started calling themselves 'sexuality critical'. it's not clever or slick. it's like when creationists rebranded their shit as 'intelligent design' to make it sound more reasonable.
btw the british press absolutely fell for 'intelligent design'. it was all over the media as a new scientific 'theory'. even the bbc covered it. these ppl are gullible clowns.

See also my article: "How did Richard Dawkins undermine transgender people?" It's a 36-minute read on Medium, paywalled. Consider a paid membership on the platform.

He's also made comments supporting eugenics:

Richard Dawkins posted to X on Feb 16, 2020: It’s one thing to deplore eugenics on ideological, political, moral grounds. It’s quite another to conclude that it wouldn’t work in practice. Of course it would. It works for cows, horses, pigs, dogs & roses. Why on earth wouldn’t it work for humans? Facts ignore ideology.
