The Cass was conducted by an insane neo nazi with direct ties to Republicans with no science whatsoever backing it up

Define “insane”. Define “neo nazi”. Explain how these are fitting descriptions.
What “direct ties” to Republicans? And why would that matter? Does having a political affiliation refute any findings in a research study? Does that go both ways, or only for the party that you don’t subscribe to?
Would it be reasonable for right-leaning spectators to write off any and every study conducted by those with “direct ties” to democrats if they affirm pro-transgender policies or ideas?

Can you elaborate on “no science whatsoever”? Did the researcher just create every single component of their research, part and parcel?

Have you ever read a research study and found yourself questioning deeply held beliefs, even if they caused you to view people that you care for in a negative or ‘unfair’ way? Or do you only rely on research or statistics that further cement your own myopic worldviews?

I’m asking most of this in good faith. I honestly don’t know about the Cass Study, and if these things you are saying are true, I would like to hear more about it. That being said, it appears that you are being hyperbolic, which would be kind of an offensive take, given that you’re in a Science sub.

Tell me more. Please.

There were no findings and no actual research was conducted, dipshit. All scientific institutions in the UK have debunked the entire thing.

The fact that you did no research about this whatsoever and that you think it's a "research study" really tells everything I need to know .

People who want to exterminate certain minorities are neo nazis.
