“More often than not, when someone identifies as a gender different from their biological sex that is a sign and a symptom that they are suffering from a mental illness,” Ramaswamy wrote, continuing to go bottom-line: . . .
"When 37-year-old multimillionaire entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy announced his candidacy for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination on February 21, few everyday Americans knew who the guy was, and even fewer thought he’d gain traction in the polls. They were wrong." . . .
I reject the idea that it is somehow “humane” to affirm their confusion, rather than to actually help them. It’s inhumane. This is simply stating a hard truth. Every serious leader should say so without apology. When they don’t, it reveals they are willing to lie in order to avoid criticism from Twitter or MSNBC. When CEOs, politicians, and celebrities affirm people’s confusion, they are simply fueling the problem.
"Ramaswamy referred to his “friend” — and one of my favorite intellectuals — Jordan Peterson and one of his observations:
Here’s the reality: transgenderism is not a civil rights issue, it’s a social contagion. Psychological epidemics have been well documented for over 300 years – as my friend Jordan Peterson has rightly identified. Western culture is periodically consumed by social psychoses that grip certain groups into hysteria, particularly the vulnerable among us.

His latest achievement is marketing sportswear for Nike, including sports bras. However, considering a man does not have a need for the support that a sports bra provides, this may be the straw that broke the camel’s back.". . .

"It’s “way too early” to know whether the controversy will ultimately hurt the brewery’s bottom line, said Evercore ISI analyst Robert Ottenstein.
"Nevertheless, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence showing its potential to wreak havoc.
"Eleven days after Anheuser-Busch delivered custom-made cans with Mulvaney’s mug on them to the influencer, Kid Rock used Bud Light cans for rifle practice.

Bud Light may tank all the woke ads
"In August, lecturer Cathy Boardman of the British and Irish Modern Music Institute in Manchester posed the question if a white person in blackface is racist, “What about womanface?”
