A little bit late for Hitchens to do that. I’m not super excited about Dawkins doing that either (or anything he does in general), then the current visible faces of atheism advocacy seem docile to the point of being innocuous, and most of the past ones have turned out to be dogshit.
Is a visible face of atheism advocacy who is assertive, unapologetic and militant, without seeking hate-induced controversies for the sake of doing profitable grifting too much to ask for?
In a podcast with Helen Joyce, author of the book Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality, Dawkins said that “sex really is binary” and argued that children are becoming transgender under pressure from their teachers and peers.[55]
Wow. What an incredible let down. He really has abandoned science. Any biologist worth their salt understands that biology is never binary. He fucking knows better and chooses to present it as black and white while wilfully ignoring the massive spectrum in between.

This is the culmination of a long, slow cooking that’s been going on for years in his mind.

I really expected more humanity from him.
