Bottom Line
The only purported evidence for the claim that Khelif is trans comes from an undisclosed test performed by an allegedly corrupt sports governing body that may have shown she has a DSD condition. The IOC has said Khelif meets its requirements for participation, with Adams, the IOC spokesman, specifically clarifying, “This is not a transgender issue.”
Because Khelif is not transgender, claims attempting to make her victory against Carini an issue about transgender rights or “woke” politics are without basis.
Gee, I wonder if the right wing morons will stop screeching about it now.
Narrator: they did not.
Take a page from the Democrats’ current tactics: “what is it with you people and genitalia?”
Don’t engage in debate, because that just implies their position is worthy of it. Ridicule them at every turn.
No they won’t. You assume they are legitimately trying to base their beliefs and arguments in some factuality. Once they get the idea that something is what they think it is then they will never budge from it.
In the past they used to make claims about being rational and dispassionate and using facts over feels. But none of that was ever true. Rationality is not a process to them, to them it is a trait like eye color. They believe their beliefs are rational because they are inherently rational and therefore if you argue against them, you are being irrational by default.
In their minds Khelif is transgender and there us nothing you can say that’ll convince them otherwise.
They also have a tendency to create definitions for things that are otherwise not defined as such. For example they might start to label any woman that doesn’t behave or look exactly as they want a woman to behave or look as transgender no matter how straight and cisgender they are.
I am not exposed to right-wing media, which means I am only hearing the left screech about it. Sounds like a total non-story, though.
